Monsters and Men

Monsters And Men 11.14

8 stars. Everything starts at 8 stars.

Why is Osama bin Laden listed as a cast member?

So: Ducky is amazed that freezing temperatures can preserve (human) remains? And all this time we thought that a basic understanding of biology was a requirement in order to become a doctor/ medical examiner.

Well mister medical examiner: on the cellular level there is little difference between a human body and a "Beltway Burger".

7 stars.

At 12:20- Hollywood cliche #246: "You don't need to know/that's classified". (Because the speaker knows EVERY SINGLE THING about the subject).

At 13:34- The camera is placed too close to Mark Harmon's stage direction.

Those sneaky CIA people. Collecting bodily waste. We wonder what the pay is for that job.

So: Parsa never bothers to have the person who knows the most about him killed? The chat between Gibbs and Bishop is nonsense.

6 stars.

Any other prisoner would be securely chained.

The last 14 minutes are nonsense/filler.

5 stars.

Connect Emotionally With Character(s)? No.

5 stars.

I don't get it. Bishop studied Parsa for six years, but she is not suspicious at all when he falls off the chair. She opens the door and causes the death of the two guards, and Gibbs offers her a job as reward??? This show is slipping.

And I know they all "get" Tony and he suppose to have a good side, but he is annoying. I am not sure if he is overwritten or overacted. No way Ziva would have fallen in love with him.

I like the show for the most part, obvious, since I watch it. Harmon is great as Gibbs.

I want to leave a review and I am being told how long I need to make it?

I agree a lot with Scubawoman and another review that got a lot of negative votes. I'm disappointed in Bishop. What rule is it not to get personally involved? Gibbs knew it and let her continue. I'm disappointed in him too. But then this show never really takes that rule seriously. Every major character has been guilty of that one.

But all the pre-capture stuff aside, both Gibbs and Bishop's IQ's dropped below a snail's IQ when on the ship. Parsa should have been securely manacled. Gibbs shouldn't have left her alone, at least not unless securely bound. And Bishop was just as bad. And she was insecure.

Then she gets praised by practically everyone???

Bad writing.
