Excellent adaptation.

Brilliant and touching

It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

I am a psych major and the way they present their theories intrigues me to further watch this TV show. I think it's interesting fun to watch and a very educated show on psychological theories. Another big thing is that it's pretty constant so your not confused on what happened last it's a continuum and I like that aspect also. I like how the theories are also proved to work because a lot if people make fun of psychological studies saying that it's not possible but being a psych major and working for a job to put these theory's to test and know that they will work help me further in my career studies. Thank You, Brittany D

"Mind Games" is the old "Mission Impossible" with a soft, mushy heart and a helping of humorous lunacy. I don't mind the mushy heart or humorous lunacy. What needs to be fixed is the setup & believability of the schemes employed and their eventual conclusion. With "Mission Impossible" the plans were very straightforward, understandable & clear, A+B=C. Problems would come up, and they'd have to adjust (just like in 'Mind Games'). The difference is Zahns character is so manic and all over the place one gets the sense his inspirations are founded perhaps less in logic and more in THC. In order for me to properly get engaged in the plot and suspense, I need to be able to believe in it. I think this can be fixed with a little better/longer setup of the initial plans.The characters are interesting & good looking, the acting is good, direction is decent (didn't like the circular merry go round camera shot in the second episode) & Chicago is a great setting. The team aspect is a big attraction to me. Like the original "Mission Impossible" (not the Tom Cruise versions) having a group of different people covertly work together to passionately achieve ethical goals just makes me feel good.The greatest asset going for this show is its theme of scientifically manipulating human behavior to achieve a goal. "Mind Games" is intelligent, identifiable and lends itself to interesting, compelling introspection. I hope the show improves and succeeds.

Like Christian Slater. REALLY like Steve Zahn. So I tried this for about halfway through the pilot, and found Zahn's character especially so manic, so loud, so annoying, I had to shut it off. If I had to watch his character every week, I think I'd start pulling the wings off butterflies, or something. Fairly weak writing, as well. Decent premise, truly annoying execution. There are too many good series on TV right now to make room for this one. I've known bipolar people before, had a close friend for years who was afflicted with it, but never experienced anyone like this. Too manic, and so grating. Sorry to repeat myself, but had to fill up ten lines; in short - PASS ON THIS ONE!

I'm intrigued by this show. I thought it was unique, entertaining, and left me wanting more. The cast is impressive….Christian Slater and Steve Zahn of course, but the actress who played Claire (Wynn Everett) stood out to me as well. I enjoyed watching her and thought her character was a nice balance to the brothers more extreme personalities. She gave a solid performance and held her own next to some of my favorite actors. The plot line "hooked" me and by the end of the show I was already thinking about what will happen in the next episode. I thought it was unique and a nice change of pace from some of the more predictable shows on air now. I enjoyed it and look forward to watching again next week.
