    All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

    A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

    The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

    I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

    For some reason, I really like this show. It has a great story, lots of action, and is dramatic. I like it for those three reasons. It is also very original and is actually kind of cool. This show is not very popular, but i think that if people actually watched it, people would like it. This show didn't last very long, but I think it should've. Jonathan Lapagiat, at least I think he did, did a great performance as an NSA secret agent. This is show is good in my opinion. That's all I can say.(I have to do ten lines, so just ignore the next couple of lines) This show wasn't nominated for Emmys. How come? Because of the damn corporate federal government. This was a great show. 10/10.

    I loved this show from the very beginning. It had a whole new concept. The show had a few episodes that were a bit close to home. From the White House being hit by a plane (9/11)... to one episode where someone hit the Pentagon with a remote control bomb (9/11).. they had great foresight, even if they were only just a show. I almost wish that the show had never been canceled, it had such great promise. I can't even begin to imagine what other episodes were written that we will never see. As for the main protagonist, Frank, I thought he was cool. He had this cool demeanor. There was even one episode which made him question his sanity, to which i still wonder about.

    I remember seeing an episode or two on TV back when it was new, and it didn't impress me much... Then about 3 months, my family was watching Highlander reruns on TNN, and we left it on after it was done, and then Seven Days came on, and out of morbid curiousity, we watched it. And we all fell in love with it. Yes it's clichéd, yes it's trite, yes it has plot holes you can drive a humvee through. It's still a great show. Good humour, decent dialogue, and they always manage to put a new twist on it. You'd think that with the simplicity of the basic plot, there'd only be so much you can do, but in all the episodes I've seen, there was no real duplication of episode plots. Despite the relative shallowness of the characters, they're still entertaining, stereotyped though they are. There's the hardass official who objects to Parker's rebeliousness, and is always insinuating that he's crazy. There's the wheelchair-bound computer geek, nuff said there. The gruff but sensitive head of the department, the mysterious foreign woman scientist who happens to be madly in love with Parker, the old army buddy who's there for moral support, the really cool old british guy... It's all there, it's all HORRIBLY clichéd, and it's good anyway. Don't go into it expecting good science fiction. But if you're looking for something that's just mindless but interesting, check it out. It's definitely on my list of guilty pleasures, both for the pure fluff value, and the eye candy(some for both sexes. Parker's pretty fine for a guy, and the gal who plays Olga isn't half bad either). Well worth a watch, I'd give it 8/10.

    Usually, I'm not a big fan of science fiction. But when I heard Jonathan LaPaglia was getting his own series, I just had to check it out. I was not disappointed. "7 Days" was an awesome mix of sci-fi, action, drama, suspense, and dark comedy. Frank B. Parker, the Chrononaut (aka time traveler), was a mischief-maker and had a lot of emotional and mental problems. But deep inside he was a good guy -- he did the right thing by saving the country (sometimes even the world) because it was his job and honor to do it.I wish UPN had given this show a better chance, rather than shuffling it around and taking it for granted. I miss it, but I'll always be thankful I watched it.
