Tayloriona Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Janis One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
mepontoni A little hard to imagine why anyone thinks this is a great show. I did watch the whole thing, but only to find out how they were going to tie all the ragged plot lines together. When the best part of a movie is the scenery, you know you have watched a stinker. The "boys" are really stupid...I mean class A stupid...in trying to solve their problems. I guess that means this could be a comedy, except there's a genuine laugh about every other episode. Worse, the dialogue between these losers is like rubbing a cat against a cheese grater. Their whiny selves are not clever. They are annoying. But I'm done with it, never to return.
AlexanderExtazy Beautiful show.. I never watched the original.. but when I saw Michael Imperioli acting in this one I thought of checking it out. First episode blew me away and I got hooked on it.The whole Caribbean setting was splendid. The intensity from each episode kept me on a hook.Everything about this show amazed me.. the midget hit-man especially!One thing the viewer notices near the ending is how such events changed the friendship relation between the 4 guys; with some events showing how they get closer; but eventually failing to keep all of them together. Such disasters could bring about treachery, disloyalty, or even hatred among one another.
Caleb I quite enjoyed this TV show for its ability to keep the suspense and in my view fairly realistic reactions and outcomes to situations. There did seem to be a slight bit of unnecessary inter-character drama, but it served a purpose and did allow a decent amount of back story to each character. One of the more enjoyable aspects is how often you switch who you like, or who you think is the most morally upright. Each character takes the spotlight, only for them to be revealed as selfish and morally ambiguous as the rest! The scenery is beautiful, (yes i know its not actually Belize but who cares it is a TV show). And lots of characters are added who you care about quite quickly. Definitely give it a go!
mosaiclimited-93954 I was so excited when I saw the promo for this series. It had everything I liked including remote, exotic location, great cast (love Steve Zahn), and a suspenseful plot.By episode 3 I thought WTF is this show? There is so much drawn out drama that is shoe-horned into the script. It's truly like a bunch of high school chicks who can't get anything done because of far- fetched, BS scenarios. If this series could just stick to the action and suspense plot it would be nice but dang! There will be an intense situation (on a boat) and then a quick shift to a past event that occurred that has NOTHING to do with the current situation and these 2 or 3 guys argue about the stupidest crap and I am left thinking, are these grown men or junior high girls? No straight guys in real life would ever spend more than 2 seconds discussing the drama and it feels very forced. That just ruined it for me. Next, there are many things that leave me thinking how the hell did the guys pull this task off. Knowing how to navigate through a jungle that sometimes seems like it's a 5 minute journey between the boat and home but the aerial shots make it seem like hours and miles away. Other times I feel like the same foot journey is miles long. And how the heck do they find the guys on the path in their vehicle? Can't figure it out and there are more instances like this.Third, the camera shots just seem unnecessary at times like the kid who just got a camcorder and does these crazy (unnecessary) shots which serve absolutely no purpose.Finally, I am so sorry to say but Michael Imperioli just looks odd. The best description is that he looks like an old Jewish grandma. It's bizarre and a tad unsettling.I think this series has great potential but it could either be 2 or 3 episodes long and eliminate all the fake, annoying drama which only slows the show down. Steve Zahn and Romany Malco really shine in this series and are the stars of the show.
