Alicia I love this movie so much
Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews
Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Pocketplayer Yes, cable TV has raised the bar for dramas so high no network show can come close. The Blacklist is good, but falls short. This show is as good and possibly better. If you've watched Mad Men, Breaking Bad, Six Feet Under, The Wire, well the character development and writing is clearly for network TV. This isn't the fault of the actors. Juliette Lewis was a stretch for me playing the same role she always does, but hey, so does De Niro right? I really liked the show and Josh Lucas is money...excellent lead. He carries the show well. Where this show blew it is character development. The wife as a school teacher who seems always free to get involved in the cases. Really? They did not need this angle. The daughter is an excellent actress. Believable from scene one. This show could have been really good, but network TV wants to fail. This is classic pride before the fall. They will not give up their power and control to make a really good TV show and settle for mediocrity. This ain't 1985 anymore. They cannot get away with the A-Team type shows...we have reality TV for that now!
djcristi2001-390-88806 my opinion that its captivate me from the beginning and want to watch one after one episodes, i see one after one 4 -5 episode per day and now i'm here at ep.19 and i wait for the next, sorry i hear that was canceled, the good shows all are canceled..Josh Lucas alias Mitch McDeere its very good actor, and the others too. He and his brother Ray are also very good actors. My opinion that if you like Lie to ME, you will like this show too... The all episodes are very good. I like very much this show. I don't want to cancel this show but i supposed that already was canceled? Please let me know if this show have a chance to resurrection?
elvispress-ley Over the last 5 days, my wife and I have just watched all the episodes so far. While i see some negative reviews, i feel how we have watched the show have been far more enjoyable. We did like wise with Lost and Prison Break. So maybe we have found a system that works well for us (watch several episodes at once) but i feel with shows i listed above, it may well be essential. This way you can keep up to date and be more clued in to the show and story lines. While i see something that i feel is stupid, i.e. they all discover that the list of numbers on the noble card is now a fake, they never presume that the bag/case may have been altered in some way, LIKE be bugged. Besides which show or movie doesn't have little flaws or errors? Anyway the way this show is written, directed and acted is extremely clever and we so hope it goes beyond one season.
blanche-2 I don't remember much about the film "The Firm," and I didn't read the book. This TV series takes up where the film and book left off, with Mitch McDeere (Josh Lucas) deciding to opt out of witness protection after the mobster who wanted him dead dies himself. He and his family, Abby (Molly Parker), their daughter Claire (Natasha Calis), his brother Ray (Callum Keith Rennie), a detective, and Ray's girlfriend Tammy (Juliette Lewis) come home. Mitch opens a private practice, but soon joins forces with a large law firm when he gets a case that could turn into a class action suit.There's lots going on in this show -- it's told in flashback, and we're shown some very intriguing flash forwards that the story is leading up to. One of Mitch's assigned cases is of a young woman accused of killing a wealthy old lady she had just met; the large firm has some sort of interest in this case, but as yet, we don't know why. And while the mobster is dead, his son has just taken over. Will he want a contract put out on Mitch and his family? We don't know at the time of this writing. And other cases come and go. Plus stuff happening on the family front.Josh Lucas is very strong as Mitch, and I absolutely love Molly Parker as his wife - a wonderful, graceful presence. Juliette Lewis, as Ray's sexy girlfriend who doesn't look much like a receptionist, is great, as is Rennie as Ray.I keep reading this show is going to be canceled. Gee, I hope we get to see the whole season.
