    Mr. Howey is rather colorless, but his lack of palette serves his co-star well: Ms. Gonzaga ("She-Hulk: Attorney at Law") is the spark that lights up "True Lies," which is a pretty funny show when not trying to dazzle us with car chases, gunfights and displays of computer graphics that are probably gibberish.

Comedy actors being used to portray serious situations let's their abilities go to waste . Potential to be a lighter hearted spy show that we need with characters we can relate to. Please don't let this be an attempt at a serious spy show that it doesn't have the budget to be. Still worth a watch… Full Review »
