InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
Charles Herold (cherold) In the hilarious, short-lived sitcom The Grinder, the idea of a TV lawyer deciding to be a real lawyer is played for laughs. This is naturally what you would expect in any series in which an actor decides to be a real-life version of his role. So the first surprise is Carter plays it straight. This actor isn't an egomaniac out of his death; he's a smart guy with some skills.The script of the first episode is an obscene collection of ridiculous coincidences and random incidents stacked up randomly. It makes no real sense. Meanwhile, the tone of the series is shaky and the series can't quite figure out how to keep it's light banter going smoothly while making you care about the characters. The acting is tolerable, but the actors are required to do things like all laugh awkwardly together to indicate camaraderie.It's like someone fed a bunch of cliched detective series into a computer and it spat out this script.Look, I understand that not everything on TV can be good, but it seems reasonable to ask writers to at least attempt to not be bad. But there is an alarming lack of effort put into crafting the show. It's clearly designed to float on charm and banter, but neither is that strong.I can take a certain amount of stupid (I watched the whole first season of Deception, after all), but here the stupidity isn't balanced out with any redeeming features.
sixshooterbob Okay I'm a red blooded American retired police officer...and sorry, but I like this show. A light, breezy, entertaining romp with good characters. I've always liked O'Connell. I have the ability to suspend disbelief when it comes to cop shows like this one because it's just fun. The "serious" cop shows just turn me off. I'll continue to watch Carter for a relaxing evening while sipping a quality bourbon....or occasionally a good Canadian whiskey.
bob-08748 The chara.cters and actors are very likable. The show is fun to watch
rholder-5 What the hell is wrong with the average person writing a critique about Carter TV show. For heavens sake, "Jerry O'Connel was over the top, a prohibited hand gun, its not like Castle, barrel of gun prohibited, improper police procedure and the ranting goes on and on.ITS A FUN SHOW WITH A LIGHT PLOT WITHOUT REALITY BEING INVOLVED, NO VIOLENCE, NO COARSE LANGUAGE, FUN CHARACTERS AND AMUSING PLOTS.Everyone well almost everyone writes like they were expecting the duplication of success like BIG BANG THEORY. For craps sake guys just sit back and enjoy and stop fixating on every stupid little detail.
