The Fugitive

I was excited for a remake of The Fugitive and always liked Kiefer Sutherland. But I'm not a fan of these ridiculous mini episodes. I like to get engrossed in my shows and get to know the characters and see the story unfold. At first I wondered if I'd somehow fast forwarded the show or was I watching an extra long 8 minute preview for it? Then I realised it was another one of those horrible mini shows. A huge no from me. A waste of time.

Face it, this is a mess. Story is stupid and unoriginal, episodes are too fast, great actors got terrible lines... Yet, it is watchable and after a few episodes, it gets entertaining. But the whole format is wrong. You cannot cut a thriller into less than 9 minutes pieces, this is anticlimactic. If each episode had received a longer run of 40 minutes and a deeper story, this could have been a great show. In the end, this is small at all levels. I don't think Quibi is the future of mobile content.

Awful. Very dumb people trying to solve a horrific crime. Dumb police, dumb reporter. The march to idicracy continues with this show. 3 "episodes" was all I could stand. The people who wrote this should never work in television again.

OMG the acting in this movie is AWFUL! Freaking Kiefer with his "can I get a copy boss?" every 3 minutes. Beyond the awful acting, the premise is ridiculous!!! It went from 0-1000 throwing all logic and reason out the window. Then lets talk about the 7-8 min show. Why bother making 11 episodes that short? Why not just make a freaking movie! All in all this is a train wreck for me.

Let's start with the obvious, if cops were this stupid, no criminal in the world would ever get caught. Now for everything else, the only actors worth mentioning are Mike Ferro(Boyd Holbrook) and Allison Ferro(Natalie Martinez) who do an amazing job of acting. Every single person including Kiefer Sutherland do such a poor job that if I didn't know better I'd say they were cast at the last second from a amateur theater troupe.

Now onto the plot, it's a combination of a bunch of bungling and sheer stupidity. I've never seen more people get more things wrong in a row in my life. You couldn't make a story this bad if you tried, and they seem to really REALLY have tried.

Meanwhile the episodes are for some strange reason 8 minutes long. Like someone said "hey you know what'd be great? If we took a 1 and a half hour show and broke it into multiple episodes that were ridiculously short for no reason at all!"

4/10 you should be ashamed to call this a series.
