Resumo
Reviewers say 'The Recruit' is lauded for its engaging drama, comedy, and mystery, with standout performances, especially from Noah Centineo. The show's fresh spy genre approach, focusing on CIA lawyers, and its blend of action, humor, and character-driven storytelling are celebrated. However, some criticize its predictability, lack of realism, and implausible plot and character development. The writing and dialogue receive mixed reviews, with some finding it clever and others tacky. Despite these issues, many find it entertaining and hope for more seasons.

Some things like the tiny lady with skinny arms throwing high impact punches is extremely, extremely silly, but the comedic tone of this otherwise serious show works very well. In many ways this is a comedy as much as it is a spy genre show.
The plot is interesting enough, and other than a heavy fixation with rap music for the soundtrack, and some silly action sequences as described it's very good and pretty entertaining.
Basic premise is 'fish out of water novice in high tension spy scenarios' but delivered with a bit of wit, and some pretty decent acting.
I recommend this show, with the couple of flaws mentioned in mind of course.

If you're old enough to remember Chuck... but more intricate spy plot.
The Recruit is about a new law recruit for the CIA who gets caught up in CIA messes and even field work, and somehow stumbles his way through it. It's witty and funny, with some action and romance.
It's not gritty CIA spy work. It's an enjoyable series with humor about a cut throat workplace, about an environment of overwork, about being smart with secrets.
It's a solid technical production with fresh new faces. The spy plot and action sequences move this thriller series at a decent pace, all the while peppered with some witty humor. It's a spy series that's not too overly intense, and quite charming, though I will say that the charm is focused on Owen, the main character, the spy stud who gets the girls, so it may depend on whether you want to watch what happens to Owen or not, and if Owen's charms rub off on you or not.
At the moment, I am eager to see if there is a next season.

I have to say I really enjoyed The Recruit. The trailers to this looked pretty good so I've been looking forward to it ever since I first saw them and it not only met my expectations but exceeded them. I've never seen Noah Centineo in anything else before this but I was impressed that he was able to lead this series the way he did. He nailed the role and now look forward to seeing him in future projects. This has everything you want in an action thriller...action, comedy, drama, mystery, twists, etc. It will definitely keep you on the edge of your seat throughout the entire season. I'm hoping this gets renewed quickly but I definitely want to see more of this!
Wow. The Recruit was even better than I was hoping for. It follows a new CIA recruit who's a lawyer and before he knows it he's in deeper than he ever thought. He gets caught up in an international political thriller when a former CIA asset threatens to expose her relationship with the agency that will cause major problems for everyone. This is directed by Doug Liman (The Bourne Identity, Edge of Tomorrow, Mr. And Mrs. Smith, American Made, Swingers, etc) who's an absolute terrific director. He usually does major blockbuster movies so this has to be good for him to do. I'm so glad that this is on Netflix so we don't have to wait a week between episodes. I hate that now. This show is definitely a show to binge. I've liked it so much that I already binged the entire first season in the first weekend it came out! I would absolutely recommend this to anyone who's a fan of political action thrillers.
The Recruit is a very promising story, unfolding across two seasons with intrigue and momentum - only for Netflix to ruin it by cancelling the third season. Because of this, I cannot in good conscience recommend it to anyone.
Watching this show now feels like reading the Harry Potter series, only to be told that book seven won't be published because book six didn't meet sales expectations. It's incredibly frustrating.
Netflix has become notorious for cancelling shows mid-story. Why should viewers commit to a series if the platform refuses to commit to completing the narrative? It's like building a fire only to douse it before it truly burns.
This isn't just disappointing - it undermines the entire viewing experience. Great characters, exciting arcs, and careful world-building are left hanging in the air. For that reason, I give it 1/10 - not for the show's quality, but for the betrayal of its promise.

- Erros de gravaçãoThroughout the show, Marine Security Guards are shown wearing dress blues with blood stripes. Problem is, most are below the rank of Corporal. Only Corporals and above are authorized to wear the blood stripes. Also, the width is wrong. NCO's wear 1-1/8" stripes. Officers wear 1-1/2" stripes. Generals wear 2" stripes.
