ChanBot i must have seen a different film!!

Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

white_loueise Where to begin...David and Elizabeth are horrible parents, Max is basically an emotionless robot, and Carter is just stupid. Lori's story gets more ridiculous by the second, the side characters are completely uninteresting, and Grant seems to be headed on the road to suicide. But wait, there's more, there's the big issues. EVERYBODY IN THIS SHOW IS AN ALCOHOLIC, except for maybe the adults, seriously, I don't know what your high school experience was like but I was not out drinking Vodka every SINGLE night. Somebody needs to get these kids some help. And then there's Taylor. Oh, Taylor, you over-dramatic bipolar bitch you. I would have difficulty finding a character in anything who comes off worse than Taylor. She is just horrible. All in all Finding Carter makes for somewhat interesting TV if you have exhausted all of your other options on Netflix/Hulu. I mean ALL of them. If you do decide to watch this for some reason at least now you know what you're getting into.

pks-5 Don't just go assuming that just because it's on MTV or, technically, it's a "Tween Drama" it can't be good or deep or thrilling.In fact, it is well above your average CW or ABC or whatever show. The quality of writing and overall production is on par with some of the best HBO series or aforementioned "Homeland"."Life Unexpected", of course, would be an obvious choice for comparison, but it was way less thriller-ish.I chose "Homeland" as a major point of reference - as strange as it might seem at first - not just off the top of my head or as a pure quality measure - "Homeland"'s first season is as close a match for the viewing experience that I had with "Finding Carter" - not that of sinister terror plots, of course, but as a psychological thriller where a multitude of agendas collide.Great show.

xpyriences This show is definitely not for me. If we're suppose to like this character- be on her side, it's not happening. This character is a horrible person. Yes, she was kidnapped, but her actions against birth mother since her return are deplorable. Complete dis-respect! Carter never considers what her birth mother went through, or anyone else's feelings- at all! She gets involved with a delinquent, in direct defiance of her mother (who just arrested the moron). The moron gets caught teaching Carter's 12 year old brother to roll joints. Her dad kicks him out, and the Mom forbids Carter from seeing him. What does this Carter do? She shoves her tongue down her the moron's throat, and makes a smart$$$ remark, in further defiance. I get she grew up with her kidnapper, and I'll give her that but she is horrible to anyone, that conflicts with what she wants. She doesn't think about other people at all! My ten year old watches this crap, with her Mom. I'm thinking about putting a stop to that. The show, to me, is an epic fail.

Bello-4 So for what's really a family's nightmare, Finding Carter is surprisingly a really good show. With a well developed cast of characters and an original premise, this show doesn't fall into the routine of other procedural or typical family drama as the family works to rebuild after a said crisis.There's very few things wrong with this show - namely Carter believes to easily in her kidnapping but you can't dwell on it as you've gotta move the show along. Her "twin sister" is the biggest thing wrong with the show in that it should be noted as a fraternal twin as most people hear twin and think identical and they're not. And Carter's guy/boy friend is just to dumb.It'll be interesting as the show unfolds. Hopefully we'll get flashbacks of Carter's life with her kidnapper mom, we'll see family life after she was kidnapped. Why did Lori kidnap Carter? Elizabeth's, and the authorities, hunt for Lori. We'll see how Carter impacts the family and they her. I'm glad that Carter throws down with Elizabeth, her birth mom, and still identifies with Lori, her kidnapper mom, as this show could've become a very sappy family reintegration show if it had wanted to.
