adjective
worthy of admiration; inspiring approval, reverence, or affection. -
Mar 21, 2023I find this show confusing and it lacks the excitement of a spy tv show. I found it a bit disorganised and it needs more time to understand the terms used in the show.

Jan 6, 2023Story is pretty convoluted but it is reasonably watchable. Protagonist is kind of dumb but the players do kind of play well off each other. All in all I'd say "watch it because you may like it. If not, no harm done."

"The Recruit" is far too amused with its wordiness in sharing the stuff that happens between cubicles at Langley, and it kills what little momentum the series gathers.
-
Stylish, smart and energetic, “The Recruit” is involving, but fairly plain-spoken: Unlike series that generate technical and political gibberish until one’s mind clouds over, what happens over the eight episodes remains easy to follow, despite its intricate narrative track.

Granted, good spies and reliable attorneys can be hard to find, especially when trying to wrap both vocations into one. But as The Recruit inadvertently reminds us, good TV series are too.
