Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

SteinMo What a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.

Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

tub51461 Two seasons in, this show is developing several major & minor arcs to the storyline. Twists & turns at every corner. There's some cliffhangers, what ifs & plot holes from the start, just never stops, & Season 3 is expected to fill some while opening others. If you're looking for a rock star series, you'll be puzzled at how this is playing out. This is one of those shows that you might not like everything that happens, but eventually there's light at the end of the tunnel for various situations. Like, don't like it,...this is a new character's welcome series and good one for USA. Each dark storyline doesn't last forever even though it appears as if like a sinking ship, a character goes through disastrous complications. Just have to see it to believe it & understand it.

jobear2484 As the most arid couple of weeks in television are drawing to a close and the huge tsunami that is the fall season is set to start, I thought I'd muse a bit about this past summer season. We no longer call it mid-season with the plethora of cable channels that offer up some of their best shows during this time. So what did I enjoy most these last few months? Was it the long anticipated return of AMC's Mad Men that turned out to have one of the most do-nothing seasons in a do-nothing show? Was it FX's The Bridge, which started so strongly and then started meandering, lost in the desert in which it was set with characters popping in and out like mirages? Was it Showtime's heavily advertised Donovan, which had a cast I should have liked but I gave up on because it was so cliché and boring? Perhaps it was NBC's too short of a season for Crossing Lines, which I ended up watching all the way through and enjoyed most of. Of course A&E's Longmire (the best show you may not have heard of) struck great twangy modern western chords during its sophomore season that were music to my heart. But, it turns out my most overall enjoyable television experience during the hot months was the ubercool Graceland on USA that has its season finale this Thursday. This is one of those shows I had no feeling of anticipation for, I only stumbled across the premier date in an ad on IMDb. There are absolutely no other shows I watch on USA, though I've sampled most of them. I wasn't even sure what it was supposed to be about, since the ad was just a typical USA style still with an attractive person staring intently off to one side striking an awesome profile pose. Turns out, the show features a lot of incredibly attractive people who work mostly undercover for various agencies like the FBI, DEA, and Customs, all living together in a huge beach house. The house- nicknamed Graceland- serves as a safe haven where these agents can relax and be their (supposedly) true selves. The newcomer, played by Les Miserables' Aaron Tviet, is a FBI legacy who isn't happy that he got transferred to California right out of the Academy, as his ambitions lay in the nation's capital with hopes of becoming a director rather than a field agent. During the premier episode it is revealed that his true assignment is to investigate the charismatic and enigmatic unofficial leader of the house and training agent played by Daniel Sunjata. This show is full of eye candy. Death Proof's Vanessa Ferlito has permanent duckface, but in a smolderingly delicious way. Though they could just stand there, each character is three-dimensional and well-portrayed. The double and triple lives these people lead become entwined with each other and the criminal underworld of drug smugglers in ways that rarely feel forced or preposterous. The red herrings aren't just used to stretch the story into a season's worth of plot, but rather to add to the layers of who these people are and where their final loyalties lie. There is true tension here. This show should NOT be as smart as it is. It works as a breezy beach read AND as a complex psychological thrill ride. Don't get me wrong, there are some things that you do see coming- I mean, how much of the face does a bandana really cover?- but quite frankly, it was a bigger surprise than Hannibal. I feel badly I didn't clue my readers in on this show earlier. When you can find a way, check it out. It just got renewed for a second season today.

Maven Maven It's like those 90s beach bum 90210 vibes, but with FBI agents. A cast of all young attractive feds living it up by the beach and just getting in and out of fed criminal related situations without even displacing one hair on their heads.You've got the guy that played Franco on Rescue Me as their leader, and a few other people that I've never seen before, cobbled together under some very bland writing. This is meant for the sort of audience that enjoys shows that could be on MTV aka teenagers who want to fantasize about being beach bums but still working as responsible adults. Maybe the writing will evolve later into the show.

OJManze I have thoroughly enjoyed the show up till this point in the series. It began similar to other series in which, like the negative reviews have said, has all the clichés we've seen before, delivering an idea we've seen before. After the first couple of episodes I would have given it about a 5 compared to other USA shows like Psych and Suits which are strong 8 or 9s. But after these few episodes, the series begins to flip the clichés on their head. Without spoiling anything, the roles perceived at the beginning of the show are switched up with many of the characters holding a secret over their heads. The one secret that has began to shift the story line really has changed the structure of the show using dramatic irony to really give the show an interesting and dramatic twist. The twist and turns as well as the cliffhangers at the end of the episodes really hooked me and even if you don't appreciate the acting( which I still think is good enough) you should at least be able to appreciate the unpredictably towards the end of the series. In summary, I feel like the negative reviews are slightly justified but don't judge this series on the first episode as it really just sets the scene rather than beginning to further the story line of the show.
