Really Surprised!

not as good as all the hype
Robert Joyner
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
Myron Clemons
A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

I love this show! I've hoped for a love connection between Hildy and Terry. I feel their characters have a good chemistry. He is a strong good looking man that is very caring and sensitive. She independent, strong, a little moody but cares about people. Hildy and Terry work well together on the job. I get the feeling that there is something a little deeper between the two of them. I hope something develops, I hope the writers write in a good love relationship between them. With all the negative news about policemen in the media today, we need more positive shows on television. I hope the writers of this show think about a love relationship between these two police officers.

I really enjoy this show, all the main characters are believable. I'm not a Law & Order Fan, and I don't compare Murder in the First to it. I like the so called slow pace. A lot of times shows start off so fast you don't a chance to understand the character. I'm only half way through the first season but so far so good. I don't usually care for cop shows, but this one is a winner. I am a Taye Diggs Fan, I liked him as much if not more in this, than some of his earlier works for example, Private Practice and How Stella Got her Groove back. His costar Im not as familiar with, but she does a good job as well. James Cromwell was great as well, I enjoy several of his movies as well, for instance Six Feet Under.

The story line for the second season has kept me on the edge of my seat. As the plot came together, each episode just got better and better. Just when you think you have guessed what is happening, the story branches off on a different path, but not so far away that you are lost, but just far enough ... The chemistry between all the actors is astounding. Taye Diggs and Kathleen Robertson seem like real police partners. I was happy to see Ian Anthony Dale as the unit's lieutenant - he is a natural, and to welcome A J Buckley back to a winning television series. And if I was forty years younger, Sugar Cascade (Mo McRae) would be a victim of some serious stalking. To let you know how old school I really am, Sugar Cascade is a super fine hunk of delicious dark chocolate. Wow!!!

Robertson and Diggs are terrific as English and Mulligan, in the same class as Brennan and Booth and Castle and Beckett. Direction is outstanding as is cinematography, both filling each episode with visual nuances that Diggs and Robertson perform flawlessly. Secondary characters are equally good, for the most part. So - Well crafted, well acted and a pleasure to watch.But, as always, detest repeat villains and drawn-out to the point of soap-opry-ness plots. And, it seems, the whole first season is going to be the Saga of Blunt. Wish they'd have opted for a more traditional episodic format.That said, I'll take it since, while tiresome, Blunt doesn't succeed in blunting (sorry, irresistible) the pleasure of watching all of the other parts mesh.One of those parts is Steven Weber, formerly of Wings and a short stint on Without a Trace, as Bill Wilkerson. MIF completes his trifecta; he's actually able to play out-of-control hysteria with understatement. Part of that nuance I mentioned. As is Tom Felton, who pushes Blunt right up to the edge of "strangle-him-on-sight", regardless of his guilt.Like Bones, Castle and, to a lesser degree, The Mentalist, the point is the interaction between the characters. For me, MIF matches the best while adding its own, unique style of getting there.
