Bea Swanson This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

Pancho2504 I loved this show, I really really did. I thought Christian Slater and all the supporting cast were fantastic, the show it's self had the right blend of action and humour and had a really likable darkness to it so I can't for the life of me understand why it was canceled!! I know the American networks are all about catchment groups and advertisers but just for once why can't they let a very well written and extremely well crafted show continue or at least do a full run of 22/23 episodes. It was the same with Journeyman, another great show that was chopped of at the knees because most Americans of a certain age would rather watch trash like the hills! What happened to quality, after all isn't acting supposed to be an art?? Judging by the shows that seem to do well across the pond it would appear the Americans like art in the painting by numbers genre.

skoyles I admit that I have never been a Christian Slater fan; never really noticed him save in "Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves". I probably confused him with Kevin Bacon or some other "brat pack" actor. And then came this series! As both of his characters, named after Stevenson's "Dr Jeckel and Mr Hyde", Slater is brilliant. This is a reverse spin on the old book since Edward, not Henry, is the primary original person. It is difficult to decide which persona is the more surprising, the murderous psychopath decorated hero Edward or the Joe Average nice but bumbling Henry. The potential of this series is near infinite but I suspect will never come to fruition. I would like to be surprised and see "My Own Worst Enemy" succeed and play for many years but I am more than doubtful. The other actors are all more than respectable but Slater is a triumph. My wife hates the show. It is not a simple shoot-'em-up nor is it a soap opera. It is a very tense suspense series brilliantly delivered. No wonder I get uncomfortable watching it.

PudgyPandaMan These are the words spoken by Henry, played by Christian Slater, the night he gets drunk, after learning the truth about himself. The truth is, he doesn't really exist. He is the result of an experiment performed on Edward Albright, a CIA Operative, where they implanted something in his brain to cause him to have a split personality. This results in the "creation" of Henry 19 years ago. Normally the chip puts Edward asleep and he becomes Henry, and vice versa. But the chip begins malfunctioning and he starts shifting from one to the other at the most inopportune times.The premise is quite intriguing and I can see would lead to a lot of humorous moments. I haven't seen either movies that the previous reviewers claim were ripped off, so I can't comment to that effect. But I think, after just watching the 1st episode, it was very well done. The camera work was engaging and the pace kept me interested. I thought the location shots in Moscow and Paris looked very realistic - more movie quality than TV series.Christian Slater is excellent as the 2 characters and seems to jump from one to the other very effortlessly. I look forward to more episodes. I just hope they focus mainly on the spy/action/thriller aspects and don't get raunchy with emphasis on sexual content.
