Crwthod A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.

Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

nico_o_hill I did enjoy watching this series. It got more and more exciting and while in Mexico I think the colors got so beautiful just wanted to jump in to the screen. Caught has a certain charm to it, old friends who became enemies. I'm definitely waiting for a season two..

courig Sounds fake, not credible enough, bad wigs,..is it suppose to be late 60"s ? 70"s ?too much smoking

anita_alarie8 70's clothes, 70's music, hot girls, hot guys,action, phones with cords, and the underbelly of life in that time that we may not have known about,that's what you're going to find in the new series Caught! Two friends, David Slaney (Allan Hawco) and Brian Hearn (Eric Johnson) decide to go into the drug running business together. Slaney gets busted but doesn't rat out his friend. After 5 yrs in the pen, he escapes with the help of a broken cop (Paul Gross), who wants nothing more than to take down Hearn, who has fled Canada and has set up shop elsewhere supplying North America with drugs. Things go from bad to worse when Slaney ends up hooking up with his old partner for one more big score! Adapted from the book of the same name, Allan Hawco, Perry Chafe, and John Krizanc, script a series worthy of the book itself. Produced by some of he same people that brought us Republic of Doyle, Caught is a multitude of action, bravado, betrayal, love, loss, and lots of weed! Slaney is a character, that despite his actions, you believe that despite everything he's a good person and you can't help cheering for him. The cast is phenomenal and each breathes life into their characters that you can't imagine anyone else portraying them. This show is a wild ride that I most enjoyed!

andrewrye-06535 For a start it doesn't know what decade it's supposed to be. The music is 1970s (not 1980s as Ed-Shullivan says - Around the Bend CCR was released in 1970). The jean jacket and jeans is the other giveaway plus Lynyrd Skynyrd's 1975 hit Saturday Night Special and Spooky Little Girl was originally released in 1967 with The Zombies version not long after. There was also a picture on the wall of Jim Morrison to emphasise the time. Music is usually used to set the time line of the story. So, why was one of the main characters dressed like Crocket from Miami Vice? collarless shirts, no socks and shoes and a gold watch that would sink a ship? It didn't make sense and the flashbacks which were about 5 years should have taken them back to late 60's or very early 70s but no flared jeans? Time slips aside and there were a few, makeup was shocking. Hair extensions and glued on mustaches look well.......fake. They looked like scarecrows with hair sticking out all over the place. At one stage a close up of the fake mustache and you could see where he had shaved under it. This all distracts from the story which was shallow enough to begin with. Apparently everyone in the 70s was a chain smoker and smoked everywhere. Hint - take some lessons on how to smoke. Non-smokers are not convincing smokers and not everyone smoked. And I do mean everyone. How does everyone automatically know phone numbers without either looking them up or being told? There were no caller displays in the early 70s and the calls were to pay phones? The story felt wooden and lacking in direction, the end of the first episode brought welcome relief. Acting was terrible, there was no flow and I couldn't feel anything for any of them. Save your time, go watch reruns of Starsky & Hutch or Miami Vice.
