Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

It started out so well. The film was great, and the TV series seemed to honour all that was good about it, with quirky storylines, a likeable cast, and a comparatively intelligent feel.Then it all went catastrophically wrong. Episode 13 made a "joke" out of self-consciously pandering to the network's mindless censorship regulations, but instead of smartly satirising the mindlessness, it joined in (breaking the fourth wall in the process) and the ensuing episodes quickly became trapped in the new air of idiocy that had been unleashed.For a show about a guy who becomes the most intelligent person in the world, it fell into the obvious trap of depicting intelligence through a prism of stupidity - in much the same way that "Scorpion" did. The net result was a show that ultimately insulted the intelligence of its audience, rather than wisely (and for an American show) bravely celebrating it. Hence, the audience who is, as always, catered for in abundance - the lowest common denominator - is entertained, while those of us with higher IQs and more cerebral tastes - surely the target audience for a show about high intellect - are reduced to being the butt of the joke; insulted, disappointed, and forced to search elsewhere for a show that can stimulate our minds as well as entertain us.It's rare for me to give up on a show before the season 1 finale, but by episode 19 I had reached the limit of my endurance. Pun intended.

The volume setting they released Ep1 on is ridiculous, It gets either too quiet or too loud so I had to constantly change the volume. Lol

The thing I enjoyed the most was the great portrayal of the impact the drug has on you. All these little things come together magnificently. Every sense gets its own way of impact. Especially I liked the part when Brian tried to focus on something. The way he does it left me jaw-dropping the first time i saw it.The conspiracy about the mysterious man, Eddie Morra, who met in the prequel makes it even more nerve-wracking. They managed to merge the movie and the series, which, in my opinion, you can't take for granted. The only thing that made me put a nine instead of a ten is that the story drifts off at some parts. Favourite acting performance: Ron Rifkin as Brians dad. Even though he receives a lot of hate from fans of the series, i think he does an outstanding job. Even Jennifer Carpenter, who I hated in Dexter, surprised me in a good way.

What a great and funny show! They mix humor and crime solving and do it great. I would totally watch a new season. Watched the first series on Netflix this weekend. They either missed a goof-up or forgot to joke about it. Stavros volunteered to get a wound. The tells he has no feeling in his left leg. Than moments later he stabs himself in his right leg. Lol.
