I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Instant Favorite.

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

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Tim Robbins, Jack Black and Jerry Weintraub brought this superb satirical series, created by Roberto and Kim Benabib, to the screen via HBO. It ran one season, was renewed, then suddenly cancelled because "they could not do it justice," which may mean that it was expensive. (Well, yes, there are a lot of planes.)A "Dr Strangelove" for the new millennium, this pacey, dark political farce fairly rips across the screen. It's superbly written, beautifully cast, and artfully performed by everyone from its stars to its bit players (though I feel that Aasif Mandvi, Pablo Schreiber and Eric Ladin deserve special mention.) I cannot recall ever laughing so hard at anything, or seeing Cabinet in-fighting illustrated so credibly and outrageously.Now that we Americans have a President who could never have got the part via Central Casting, I fear that The Brink's apocalyptic take on politics and antics at the highest levels may be closer to the truth than we would ever want it to be.When the End of Days is upon us, it'll be a shame that we won't be able to go out watching at least three seasons of The Brink. Boo to whoever made this decision, because this show is a classic and deserved better.

This hilarious series tells us more about American foreign policy than all the articles of the New York Times and the Washington Post put together. Every member of Congress should watch every episode of The Brink. HBO's decision not to do a second series is sad. Did Republicans in Congress object to the truth displayed in The Brink? Did the weapons industry object? Dwight Eisenhower warned us against the military-industrial- congressional complex. Did AIPAC object? I loved Tim Robbins's acting. The dialogue was superb, so much better than the drivel that normally saturates Hollywood movies. Jack Black and all the other actors were just fine.A friend of mine who speaks some of the languages of South Asia tells me that the movie got the politics just right.

I wasn't impressed with the first half of the pilot, but decided to keep watching. Now we've watched 9 episodes and can't wait for the next one.I'm trying to figure out why so many people don't like this show. I can understand that some people will just not find it funny, and that's perfectly fine.But after reading a number of reviews online, it seems that some people are upset that "The Brink" makes Americans look foolish. Others seem to think that it is a right-wing fantasy, which is comical given Tim Robbins' outspoken politics. Then there are people on the left who seem to think that it stereotypes Pakistan. Others don't like that there is no obvious hero to identify with, as almost everyone in the show is flawed. Someone said there are too many Jesus jokes. Yikes people, you need to lighten up.Although much of the humour is broad, there are lots of subtle jokes and comments. For example, I think it's hilarious that there is such widespread drug use; each social class has its favourite substance to abuse. Apparently, this kind of social commentary will bother sensitive viewers though.The acting is excellent, particularly Tim Robbins. I think the writing is fantastic, apart from a few really childish jokes.So, give it a chance. Make sure you watch past the first episode, and hopefully you will be rewarded for your patience.

Well it is probably because i studied international relations and politics at collage i find this show entertaining. Jack Black is one of my favorite musician so that was a bonus for me. Best part is all political dialogs are well written with lots of hidden information in them and people who are having this conversations are doing it in an informal way. Aside from pilot part all the political riff raff is lot of fun if you are interested in eastern politics. If you are not into that kind of stuff this show will probably bore you to death. I'm glad someone took politics down to a comedy level because people tend to get very tense about it. It is safe to say whole show is a parody of world politics. Fun to watch, Jack Black is Jack Black as always doing weird stuff and all. If you like all these above you are probably waiting for the next episode already
