Am I Missing Something?

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

Blistering performances.

Loved the storyline, but 10 episodes seemed not enough. At some times it seemed rushed to put everything in there to make story work. Longer and more episodes would have given the opportunity for a deeper emotional story.... It got stuck to much at the surface. Jason Isaacs is capable of so much more, why not show it. Loved Anne Heche too. And the rest of the cast....there could have been more depth, even though the dig was very deep.

We watched this show each and every week. The entire house would discuss the intrigue and the complex plot, the baddies, who was a goodie, or not. Right up to the last episode and then ... then ... what happened, it just died, all the complex plotting all the mysterious characters, just dissolved into nothing and the show ended. We sat there on the lounge and looked at each other, we wanted to cry. How could they do this to us, who's responsible! What a crock of SH!T.Even though we were left in tears of utter disappointment at the end, all the episodes until then were gripping and we loved every minute. I recommend watching all but the last episode, then just be happy with your fantasies about how it could have ended. Anything you dream up on your own will be better than that last awful episode.Maybe it will become an internet meme - the "Dig" alternate ending competition. I still want to cry.

It is brilliantly written, directed and acted. The show is awesome. It has too many twists that keep you on the edge of your seat. Don't go by the overall ratings, i seriously don't know why they are so low. It is much more interesting than Breaking Bad or Homeland. I am a huge fan of Dan Brown books and this show borrows a lot from his style of writing and story. Jason Issacs is a good choice to play the lead and is aptly assisted by other casts. if there is any weakness, i would say that the producers could have given us more episodes in this season. The scenes of Jerusalem look authentic even though they have been shot in Croatia. Had the directors slowed the pace a bit to make the series for 12 episodes, the picture would have been clearer. But nonetheless, its brilliant. Miss it at your own peril.

I am having trouble remembering when I wanted so badly to love a new series.First the star, Jason Issacs, is one of the most under-utilized action heroes in the biz. I saw him a few years ago in a mini-series about politics in Boston and he was brilliant. He held the series together like glue. He has the kind of face that you instantly trust and he has the looks of a guys who gets things done.And seeing Kring's name on the creator credit was also a plus. I am one of those fans of Heroes who still doesn't quite get why a show that was mesmerizing in its first year suddenly lost an entire audience? I still watch old episodes of Heroes even today, they are that good. ("Save the cheerleader, save the world" should be right up there with "the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.") So, apologies made, this is not a series I can get my teeth into.In my view it is primarily intended for viewers who love a good crossword puzzle or jigsaw puzzle or any kind of puzzle, because that's all you get from week to week. Puzzle pieces and clues.In script talk, the long arc essentially dominates the short arc and the short arc exists only as a excuse to extend the long arc.There are people who love puzzles that have no answers. I am not one of them.But you might be.
