The Oath

I'm still trying to figure out why Hammond's mother has two sets of eyebrows. Her own, and a permanent marker set drawn above them.

Why is it that these 'cops' spend all of their time doing gang stuff and almost zero time doing cop stuff?

The shaky camera stuff is trying to emulate The Shield, which grinds this crap into the ground and stomps all over it.

I was hoping that with Sean Bean starring it would have been worth watching. Sadly, I was wrong.

Despite the fact any connection to realism here will require a leap of faith, (regardless of the producers' statement at the start of each episode), and despite the fact the camera work can get a little annoying at times, and despite the fact it's a little slow to get going, (especially for Sean Bean fans), this is solid crime drama entertainment. Very well written. Great cast. More than enough well-crafted twisty turnabouts to sustain interest and keep predictability, (the bane of all cop show/crime serials), at bay. And a finale that skillfully sets up a season 2. This is my favorite Crackle original so far. Immensely bingeable. And the price is right. My only real complaint is the extremely graphic close quarters gunplay. I realize brain splitter is all the rage in this genre right now, but if it crosses the line into the gratuitous, it distracts from the overall quality of the project. Just saying'.

I hope the show is fiction, because if it is true... Can't wait for season 3

Who invented this shaky camera filming? He should be banned from filmmaking for the rest of her/his life. It is horrible and makes me a headache. This would have been so good with descent directing. Now it's awful.

So i just finished the whole season ,, a quick review , i'd say it is difinitly not as good as i expected ... but >>

The show with each and every episode keeps you somewhat interested and looking for more to know how things will end for this "police gang".

The plot is strong, but i think the script was a bit stretched and sometimes a little dull ,, i mean this could have been a really good 3/4 hours episodes show "Like what we see on BBC2" and it would've been fast strong and even more attracting.

talking Cast, they all were really good well engaging actors , you can't move on without bringing Sean Bean , as in the first 4-5 episode you'd think he has a minor role , appearing in prison a couple times, but hen after you'll see him more ,, you'll like him, then hate him then like him again :D but yeah over all the whole cast were good.

but again maybe Crackle after they have changed to "Sony Crackle" wanted to pop up with the new Sony mask ,, who knows ,, but again , the show was okay, it grows with each hour , but as i said,, it needs a bit more work on the directing.
