VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
Aiden Melton The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
ibiggmikei I really enjoy watching this show. I don't really get into "network" shows, I prefer FX, Showtime, AMC, and HBO much more than the network channels. This is a decent show in my Sunday night lineup as there's nothing really going on right now (Boardwalk Empire, Dexter, Walking Dead, etc) Happy to see Terry Kinney on a show. It's decent, nothing groundbreaking yet, but very enjoyable. Even happier that it's a show about the NYPD. The acting is decent. Adam Goldberg is fun to watch. Most shows are slow to find their footing in the first season. The music is pretty good for the show.... Theme song is off the hook. Old school Jay-Z song, "Heart of the City." All in all, it's entertaining and does the job of filling in while my other shows are on break.
jpmist I haven't watched a TV cop series since Hill Street Blues, but I made a point of watching the premier of NYC 22 when I saw that Richard Price was writer/producer. I think highly of his writing and have enjoyed his novels very much. The series has a wide variety of rookie cops which keeps the pace of action interesting. I appreciate the lack of shaky cam and the fact that every street they show in the series hasn't been recently wet down. (Not a cloud in the sky and it just rained? A pet peeve of mine.)Yes, there were a few scenes that were groaners. Plus some obvious paint by numbers plot points and character choices that must have looked good on paper, but you do what you have to to get a series on the air I guess. There's some good humor in the writing and the show has a good balance between character and action which is why I went on to watch the second episode and will keep watching the remaining 10 and hope it gets renewed. So far I think it's definitely worth a look.
kis-aleksandar For years I have not seen on TV and a real good series about cops on the street. When I saw the pilot episode, I fell in love in the series. In this series there is no political correctness that has ruined many a series of police. The series follows a group of young officers who were suddenly thrown into the real world. Colleagues who do not like them, rough areas, each of the young police officers has a story that appears in the series. Although there are a couple of clichés, the series was really great refreshment on television.Message for writers and producers: - Proceed as in the first episode. - Do not turn this into a series of quasi-drama for the housewives - I do not want to go deeper into the love stories of police officers - We want to see their lives and work on the street - Display their private lives just to have as much to do with their work in the police.Good job, keep going!
omricn The only reason I am not voting 10 for this masterpiece is because I don't want this review to seem too rash, but believe me, this one is the new, if not a better - third watch. For those of you who enjoy the fast pacing, fresh, almost intoxicating feeling of the New York jungle style police\action drama shows, and miss the writing and acting style forgotten in the scripts of "third watch", "ER" (though set in Chicago) and a likes - you are going to feel that "thing" again.. I almost fear of liking this show too much as unfortunately the TV crowd these days have succumbed to the vampire\zombie trash (no offense)and cannot take in the amazing atmosphere this great show has to offer. Atmosphere, that's what it's all about, and it's back!story wise - I can say for sure it's started out quite good, giving the viewer the usual point of view of the inner works of the police precinct, the usual good and bad guys, which will soon surprise us (or not..) as being the opposite, but that's a good thing, that's what we are missing today, something old and comforting, almost womb like, but still fresh and new.Actors - I had good hopes for this show solely after looking at the casting, and they delivered; Adam Goldberg, with his Jeff Goldblumish feel is amazing as always, Leelee Sobieski we all know and love is a bit slow at the beginning but catching on, the new skin's are quite good as well, especially Harold House Moore which shines and promises a good, stable and confident acting role.watch this one, you'll see what I mean, this one should be with us for a long time.
