Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

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

A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

The Division does nothing more than tell us that in life the good guys are the racial/ethnic minorities and women while the bad guys are the white Christian males. In every single episode I have seen, the criminal is white and, most often, male, while the main team of detectives is an unrealistic assortment of racially diverse women and a Jewish man. If this is so true, why do people complain about a disproportionate amount of minorities in prison and white males on the police department? The San Francisco setting combined with the reverse discrimination makes the liberal agenda all too clear. The Division does not solve or address any problems but rather reverses the old problems and creates more tensions.

I just want to express how I like this show so much. Police women who have to cope with the tough job on the beat and concile their private life... I tell you I like what Deborah Joy Levine is writing here.I watched mostly because of Nancy McKeon. I've lost her track for a few years and so happens I read about she was in that series. Boy, that girl is still full of talent. I haven't watched season 1 where she got in a lot of trouble because of her attitude (i.e. drinking), but to see her in another perspective being sober pleases me as well. I remember she was my favorite on some teenage show more than 20 years ago I've watched on NBC (rather not say it...). She is still my favorite after all those years. Way to go Nancy !But the rest of the cast is great: Bonnie Bedelia stills have a lot of mileage to go and her movie experience serves her well here... So's the rest of the cast like Tracey Needham and Lisa Vidal who has a tough situation to cope for (let's not go into spoilers here...).Stories are well told, and just reflect what policewomen have to face in reality.Have a moment and watch it. This Division is sure worth a look...

It's great to see Lifetime branching out into stronger material. The "Women in peril" theme gets old after awhile - even for women viewers!I like that Lifetime continues to pay attention to its core demographic without pandering to us. Well-made dramas like this and "Any Day Now" would be a credit to any network, and definitely strengthen the Lifetime lineup.

The gist: 5 female cops in San Francisco and their problems and adventures. Bonnie Bedelia, Lela Rochon, Tracey Needham, Nancy McKeon, and Lisa Vidal star in this series that is headed for doom while on the Lifetime network. Seeing the network, the episodes will most likely revolve around the whole "woman-in-peril" subplot. McKeon is a talented actress, as are the others, and shouldn't subject themselves to doing nothing except "woman-in-peril" stuff. This series might fare better on NBC, whose new season was met with insufficient failures. This show is ok, just needs a new network.
