This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
... View MoreThe tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
... View MoreThis movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
... View MoreThis is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
... View MoreStill remember her in FLASHDANCE... . wow. what a revelation !! It was unintentional, but she changed the swagger and the countenance of the cinema for ever. I was a baby in the 80s , and watched the flashdance many times as a flash back in some Sunday afternoon. Which is typical in Argentina.I like the series , and she look great. Time passed by and she is still great, and pretty. Something funny, even if she acts in the most precious piece of Cinema Noir, And she performs the role of a perspicacious COP , she will be named as THE CHICK OF FLASHDANCE... funny in-it ??
... View MoreI loved this show. It was a cop show, sure, and there are plenty out there but it was different than everything else and it's quite hard to explain. The story line had me pulled in right away. To be honest I didn't watch much television at the time so I had no clue it was on till I spotted my father watching it. I was pulled in by the first few minutes. The thing I loved the most was the relationship with everyone in the show. My favorites were when Jarek Wysocki and Teresa Colvin got together, they were so calm and pulled a joke here and there, giving off a brother-sister relationship. And let's not forget about Jarek and Caleb's relationship. In my eyes it was slightly a father-son but also a brother-brother relationship. They continually bantered, making the atmosphere light. But it could change in a second. It had it's fair share of action, balancing everything out. There's not much I can say there without giving it away. But all in all this show was amazing and I'm extremely sad that they cut it.
... View MoreThis show has (or had) it all. The story lines in this drama series kept me on my seat week after week. The undercover cop, the death of Wysocki's brother, the infidelity, the strong woman as lead cop.... Enough with the same old Law and Order mindless, stolen from the headlines dribble. Finally a cop show with guts. I really don't care if the one time Chicago cop didn't find it real! Maybe he didn't get the memo. It's a TV SHOW! Not a DOCUMENTARY! It's purpose is to entertain you. Maybe Glee is more his liking! The final 2 episodes were the best I have yet to see on a TV series. I never knew what to expect and the plots and subplots were simply undeniably sensational and unexpected. I sure hope some other channel picks this show up. Before it is too late!
... View MoreI had high hopes for this series since I was wishing it would be similar to Southland, Detroit 187, or even Law and Order. All three of these series show imagination, good characterization, and a plausible finale each week. Unfortunately the writers follow a single plot or event and are either unable or unwilling to challenge the viewer with a blend of situations.The writing is inconsistent and with such a fine cast it seems almost wasteful. Gratuitous comments such as " I almost voted for Nixon" have almost become a throwaway line and really unworthy of a big budget crime series. The city scenes are well produced with excellent shot angles that puts the viewer right on top of the action.Overall with the exception of Jennifer Beals, the cast is excellent. Ms Beals may be a good actress but her youthful appearance is not believable and she has no Chicago accent that I can pick up from her dialogue. I am hopeful that the writing gets better, this could be an excellent series. The single plots are good and hold the viewers interest.Unfortunately the dialogue needs to improve if the series is to improve.Good Luck
