Breakers

Please persevere with this. It's bad at the beginning, almost to the point of being deliberate. The colour is off, the camera work shoddy and sound design unpleasant. As the series progresses, it all gets better. I am trying to work out whether this is deliberate, as if until he 'finds his story' the world is bland and pointless. If this wasn't intentional.... no idea why, but it really does become worth it further in.

What is really extraordinary about this series is that it goes completely against the current trend where TV series in general are far superior to the feature films coming out of Hollywood. As impossible as it sounds, BREAKERS has managed to take a series and give it the look and feel of a bad B-movie from the 70s. The casting is bad, the lead actor, who relies a lot on voiceover, has a voice like chalk on a blackboard, the lighting is terrible, the dialog is terrible ... well you get the idea.

But what's with the poor production? The sound is terrible in places. I'd love to think it was deliberate (as another reviewer has proffered) but it's random and doesn't fit.

The storyline is paced well and engaging. It nicely builds up the plot over time. Some fun characters.

The other reviews here make no sense to me. Breakers introduces an entirely new twist to the Groundhog Day canon that I have never seen tackled before. Every episode reveals something new, with suspense building steadily until a perhaps confusing, but definitely intriguing climax. Bring on Season 2!

This as Groundhog type of story gets better and better as the days pass. The characters do seem bland at first. But if it was happening to you would your life have the wow effect to start with? But as the days pass and you learn things or even do things like rob a bank or shoot someone, maybe with a reason or maybe without.

It changes you.

What happens when you kill someone without a reason and the day does not reset? As for the current top review of the plot is only "get out of this" Maybe the plot changes but I myself would live the day after day doing some crazy things till It all became bland then I would work on the "get out of this".

Groundhog Day covered this as well. But at some point you would want the day to end. Might be in 2 years might be in 2000 years. How long before the human mind breaks?
