A Verdade da Mentira: Uma Nova Missão

Interesting way to bring this to the small screen and in a surprise turn, the writing is actually good with one exception. What brings this down is weak acting and in particular, Ginger Gonzaga, wow is she horrible. Not only is she a horrible actress but the way she is written as a badass from the beginning is totally absurd; her bullying and whiney screech makes my ears bleed. In fact, something was gnawing at me from the moment she got on screen and then I remembered, she was horrible in She-Hulk.

The production level reminds me of Chuck which isnt bad but will definitely limit special effects and stunts. My wife and I really want to like the show but the next episodes need to get better or why bother.

In the first episode we learn that the wife speak suitable languages that just happen to be spoken by some goons, she can fight those goons no problems, and she can knock out said goons with her legs. Not to mention she is not scared, not very surprised and adopt so quickly to all situations that she looks like the super-spy and not her husband.

And of course the wife, Mary, last name Sue, also comes up with the best plans, is able to think quicker and better than her husband.

I lost complete interest after that one.

The show (first episode) is also badly written with awful dialogue.

With those big negatives out of the way I also need to mention that this has some charm and the idea is not too bad. This could easily been pretty good, but the writers decided that they wanted a bad show so I am moving on.

I could not even get through a third of the show. The casting and acting is horrible; the script writing lame; The main couple has zero chemistry and it all seems forced.

Normally, I give a new series a few episodes to find its groove, but this is so trite and stupid, I don't think that I could watch another.

I was looking for some fun but got only cringe-worthy disappointement. So, I need to type more words for this review to be posted, but I have made my point, so I will only add that a fat and out of shape dude in the support van is stupid as any operator would be required to be in shape.

It is a tall order to fill in the shoes of Arnold and Jamie Lynn and they tried, but they just didnt pull it off. I felt no chemistry between these two and that was the magic of True Lies the movie.

I found myself fast forwarding to a good part but just did not find any wow factor.

I really hope it gets better. It looks like it might prove entertaining but as i was watching it late, i switches to the new.

Why they brought in a boy to the family escapes me. Also, are they just going to mimic the movie or come up with something new and interesting to grab our attention. Oh, and suddenly a school teacher who does yoga is a deadly shot and knows how to fight? Not.

It started ok I guess, at least it hooked me in to give it a chance with a few more episodes, but now I'm done. The stories and dialogue are infantile, something I'd expect a fifth grade drama class to come up with. I'm a fan of most of the actors in the series, but they are all starting to get annoying, especially Ginger Gonzaga as the wife, who's character has become unbearably annoying and unconvincing to the point of cringe. Her acting feels fake and forced, and out of character for any wife in this type of situation, especially the idea of being recruited and put in the field as she was. It's just plain cheesy, unbelievable and unwatchable. The constant split-screen directing has become annoying, and most of the camera work is cheesy with the attempt to have fancy visuals. Even the action scenes are poorly choreographed and have an amateur-hour feel to them. Thus behold, another Paramount flop in the works. I'll be shocked if this makes it to a second season.
