Sadly Over-hyped

Just so...so bad

It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

It's a pity I watched this after 24, Alias, Covert Affairs and likes. Along with most recent Nikita with Maggie Q, all of the above appear somewhat simplistic - if not amateurish - with compare to LFN.So many story finds, characters etc. got copied by the later shows from LFN - it deprived me of enjoying the indisputable LFN novelty.Yet, now, in 2013, the show is extremely addictive, rarely predictable, with jaw-wtf???-dropping twists and numerous cliffhangers.I was googling for the "best spy TV show" lists and came across LFN. After watching 3 seasons I'm wondering how come it's not on top of every single list I found. Even my skeptical wife is into it, and coming from her, it means a lot. In fact, my own list would consist of LFN only (well, maybe 24, as a very distant 2nd).Granted, most characters are over the top. Nikita, as Section's personified conscience. Michael, the coolest operative in existence, he never ever misses - respect! The devilish Siamese twins, Operations and Madeline. But that's how it always is with long running TV series and only adds to LFN's power.Soundtracks are cool. Cheesy moments are so few - not worth mentioning.Peta Wilson grows on you, and soon it's hard to imagine someone else in her place. What is it with Aussie girls in spy shows? They're the best...Show starts a bit shaky - or so it seems, possibly, because it repeats well-known first turns of Nikita's fate, but then, before long, it takes on its own, grim and often unforeseeable road, you will never regret following.Very stylish, very unusual fun & fireworks. 10 out of 10.

"La Femme Nikita" is simply the best TV show of its kind ever made!! THE BEST!!Every aspect of it is close to perfection. There are some matters that could have been better, but that is only due to the low budget of the show.It is very rare for a movie or a TV show to gain a lot of its success because of its music style (not just the original score) but LFN nails it to the wall!! It has by far the best music selections that blend perfectly with the plot and the characters!! Much respect to the musical director of the show!!The acting is amazing from all the main cast. Everyone manages to deliver their character's goods extremely well! Allow me to speak individually for Mrs Peta Wilson.... EXCELLENT actress! As beautiful, sexy and breathtaking as she is, so are her acting skills. In fact if she wasn't such GOOD an actress the show would have never been so successful. Maybe what I am about to say is a bit over the top, but the way I see it Mrs Wilson is a better looking version of Mrs Jodi Foster.Just watch LFN and you will understand why it is SO GOOD!!

I loved this show and never missed an episode. I thought it was suspenseful and well written. I was fully involved in this program. It will be sorely missed.I cannot understand why we don't even get re-runs. I think the acting was well done and the characters detailed. I think the relationship between Nikita and Michael was intense and riveting. I have seen repeated episodes of garbage shows on television and I do not understand why no network thinks this show is worth repeating. I was hoping they would make another movie perhaps letting us know what happened after wards. I guess the actors have moved on. I think the original movie was very good and think the television show was a testament to it.

Nikita, after a bad childhood, is now with a quasi-government organization, called Section One. They hunt down and eliminate the bad guys and/or terrorists by any means necessary. One problem with the show is the members of Section One aren't likable. They aren't any different from the ones they murder. If it wasn't government sponsored, these people would be the terrorists. Another, is that the bad guys are all incompetent. They can't even shoot straight.Section One is staffed by attractive people. I can appreciate the show for Peta Wilson (Nikita). She's a tall, beautiful blond. But, that can't redeem the show.
