    I enjoyed this show enough to give it a second viewing. You have to wonder where it all will take you though.

    Great action sequences but totally amoral characterizations makes it impossible to invest any emotional intelligence in the cast.

    Holy crap this show is boring. They found a way to make violent robbery heists completely unstimulating. Maybe it's because none of the characters are remotely compelling.

  1. The premiere breathe[s] like a moody, dark theatrical release -- one that tastes like Quentin Tarantino muddled with Michael Mann -- as opposed to a pilot from executive producer John Wells.

    So odd, you must check it out. [22 Sep 2006, p.89]
  3. The cinematography is stylish, and the action sequences compare favorably to those shot for larger screens. The acting is good, sometimes even inspired, and yet there is a big problem with the show. Put simply, most of these characters are distasteful and sometimes downright repulsive.
