InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.
Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
jbmclw Gets progressively sillier and more absurd each minute. Its too bad. It could have been a decent series.
sftrojan I really liked the show and followed it closely, maybe too closely. There were a lot of details that were either ignored or overlooked. Ex. In the final episode, a mob hitman is chasing the two protagonists with a large rifle with a huge silencer; however, when he discharged the weapon, the whole South Island if NZ could hear it!!
johnvburke-86483 This is good stuff for dialog writing, acting, location work (Bangkok! New Zealand!). and two strong, appealing female leads whose growing friendship is a pleasure to see. That said, though, there are a couple of plot devices that I started to get tired of. One is the hairsbreadth escape: one of the leads is cornered, in an impossible situation, with a bad guy's gun pointed directly at her head, and poof! something intervenes just when all looks hopeless. This happens too many times to be believed; I'm willing to suspend disbelief but not hang it from the rafters. The second is the partners-almost-split-up scene: "That's it, you need to go on without me," yet every single time, they stick together. And finally, I think the writers went to the MacGuffin shelf too often: the pair are searching for a pile of cash, no, a stash of drugs, no, the car containing both, no, a safe deposit box key... I can see why something like this would have seemed like a handy way to keep the story line going, but it started to get tiresome for me.
lucius-20 What an incredibly weak start to a series. I do not know if what follows are spoilers but these actions spoiled the series for me.Incredibly stupid bad guy who misses opportunity after opportunity to finish the girls off and then followed up by incredibly stupid girls who time after time stuff up their getaway. How many times do you have to knock out the bad guy and leave the gun behind for him to use on you again and again before you realize it might be a good idea to get the gun or at the very least tie him up. Lola (Rebecca Gibney) seems to go from street smart to dumb blonde in a heart beat. At least Chelsea (Geraldine Hakewill) seems to be consistent in her character.Can't fault the girls. Good work - weak script.
