ShangLuda Admirable film.
Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
MusicChat It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.
arkotner I love the grittiness of these characters. Can't wait for episode 3 of season 3!
Joe S I have been watching this show from the beginning of the first season. It definitely keeps me interested and each episode and seems like it's 10 minitues long. Detectives Sanchez and. St. Angelo are great at what they do and work very well together. I definitely hope the episodes and seasons continue.
randymcbeast The Discovery channel should be taken out back and beaten to a pulp. So many of their programs are just so poorly edited/directed to the point where they drain the reality out of them.This series is no different and could be the worst of the bunch. They so obviously stretch out the content it should be criminal. They replay things over and over and take side tracks and all of a sudden the hour is over and the coming attractions are on for next week.Now with season two they've made it even worse by adding more cases to the pile. Now, they are changing off the original case in season one and switching around to different cases. This stretches everything out exponentially because they replay content even more now when they switch back to a different case.What's the most annoying aspect of this is how many times we hear the same, "I'm gonna solve this if it's the last thing I do" garbage from Rodie Sanchez. They pan right in close to his face over and over. So annoying.The direction and editing is second to Rodie as unbearable. The slo-mo bs, the misleading down certain paths, and so on.Luckily, I can fast forward through and do my own editing. It takes me about 5 minutes to watch every hour episode. Way to go Discovery channel.
AudioFileZ You are going to like the new reality cop show Killing Fields. Do I have your attention with an arrogant throw down like that first sentence? Well, I actually do think you will like this show simply because there is a lot to like.First, true justice for victims doesn't always come easy and when it's about twenty years on and the police are truly still trying, well, then I'm interested as to why. The first season of Killing Fields is about just such a case. Second, all the principals are likable to the point you really feel for them, rooting for their success. Third, the producers have logically laid out the show with a proper amount of human interest sides about the principals who have REAL stamped all over themselves. It's as compelling as the crime story. And the pace of the story works without too much of that formulaic dreck so many crime shows use.If I had one reason you should watch Killing Fields it would be retired/re-activated detective Rodie Sanchez. This guy has charisma dripping off of him. His humanity really comes through; his many failings, his never give up attitude, and his survivor mentality combine to make him a guy you want to watch. And, watch is what I want to do, but it seems Discovery network might not agree? Maybe the ratings weren't good? It won't be the first time stupid shows trumped better ones. After six episodes in season one there is no information on Discovery's site if and when the show will return. Perhaps this, in large par is due because there is nothing monumental against the enigmatic prime suspect, or anyone else. An indictment for this best suspect isn't going to happen it appears as he has ;lawyered up. In that shield there is really little that can be done without some real irrefutable evidence that may never come Like Rodie Sanchez this case is under my skin ( it only took six solid episodes) and I want more. Highly recommended even if the resolution is not obtained because Killing Fields is an interesting and entertaining show about real slow crime work which dedicated detectives who truly want justice even if it takes 20 years.
