Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation
Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
tony osborne This miniseries started well - and the muted colors worked very well for some beautiful scenes. Basically though there was not enough material (or it was simply not narrated in sufficient depth) to warrant 10 episodes. The series upon which it was based was 'only' 6 episodes and so should this have been (imho) - or even less!I also felt that too many significant events only happened because of the unbelievable stupidity of some of the cast. I find this to be a cheap and lazy method of introducing plot turns and excitement. Furthermore the bad guy was only caught by a last minute revelation that, if true, could/should not - for credibility - have been so completely hidden up to that point. I had higher hopes for this miniseries based on the reviews I read.
wilsonrj-10031 One of the worse programs ever produced. Two gay boys see a murder and so decide not to tell. Duh, they could say they were there drinking not having sex. But then the whole rest of the series would fall apart. Then having the killer be the FBI agent in charge. What a weak plot. But you could always tell what mode he was in because like Jekyll and Hyde he was either smiling or scowling. And the script-- OMG was this written by high school kids? And the female sheriffs husband--he had one expression whether he was mad, or sad it said confusion. Like the whole series.And, to make the series "moody" they decided to take all the saturation out of the picture so it looked kind of like black and white. All that did was make the file muddy not moody. And, to top it off, feeling they didn't have enough action shots to warrant the number of episodes each one was filled by a long irrelevant conversation between two people about feelings or understanding. OK, and here's the real spoiler they wanted to show that the female sheriff was conflicted and in this small town running away from something. So some kid dreamed up--Hey lets have her have killed a baby in Buffalo. How lame can you get.
jessans I am sorry to all the lovers of this show, but I do not think that this show lives up to the standards of the original at all. I watched both the American and the Norwegian version during a couple of days and I have to say that this version of this tale manages to fall flat. I became really interested in this show because of it's thrilling plot and the fact that it portrays a gay romance. The main actors are not bad, but the script is really awkward. Because of this, the only thing that interested me were Philips and Lukas story-line, the rest I just felt like skimming through. I also do not like the way that everything is filmed. Maybe it's a style preference, but I feel like they shoot (film) from some angles that are a bit awkward or inexplicable. Because of this I don't feel like we get to see what the actors are really portraying, and instead everything just feels awkward and stressed.
cwamne_h Eyewitness is one of the best things on TV I would say. It's not something that has a lot humor and if you can't watch drama, probably not your show, which is okay. However, it's not a show that is gonna make you depressed to watch. It has a very good story line and plot, it is not simply just about Philip and Lukas witnessing the murder and struggling with not being able to tell, mostly because of Lukas being paranoid of people finding out he's gay. There are many plot lines in this, like a ex FBI agent (now Philip's foster mom and sheriff in a small town), a FBI agent with a sister in serious trouble, and of course the killer. So you aren't just seeing things from Lukas and Philip's eyes. The writing is not predictable and you will be surprised and entertained.This isn't a show that is in poor LGBT taste, there aren't any gay stereotypes in this.This cast is really great, despite the fact that most of these actors aren't known. everyone on the show does a amazing job, I really love what the actors who play Philip and Lukas are doing.
