Quem é Erin Carter?

My husband and I really enjoyed this mini-series, which we watched over two nights. It has an interesting plot and developed characters. The backstory is delivered bit by bit, keeping the viewer involved. I appreciated the main character as being multi-faceted. Well acted, Erin Carter is a character who behaves as real people do: sometimes clever, sometimes foolish. She struggles and she grows. In fact all the characters are like people you might actually know. Some good and some bad qualities. Of course being entertainment, the plot is often unrealistic. But, hey, it is tv. If you want realism, turn off the tv and read the newspaper. If you want an entertaining show, this is a good one.

This started with a decent premise -- a mom/school teacher leading a pleasant, suburban life but hiding a dark and violent past. As the plot unfolded in the midst of cocktail parties and after-school activities, it reminded me a bit of a Harlan Coben mini-series. But after a few episodes, the level of gun play and martial arts fighting rose to video game levels. Some characters are impossible to kill, no matter how many bullets hit them; too many others are simply expendable. The first few episodes drew me in enough to make me finish watching this series, but overall it was ridiculous and watching it probably made me dumber. The beautiful scenery and charismatic cast didn't save it.

... don't know-understand what some reviewers are expecting (has Netflix-bias-maybe)... Who Is Erin Carter? Is one of the better Euro action thrillers Netflix is offering recently... through all its seven well-acted-produced episodes series remains enjoyable viewing

... all actors are good, yet the one you look for continually is Indica Watson... only twelve years old at filming, she's terrific in this series... acting since age five, it's for sure that she is to continue becoming one of the more well known-recognized faces of young European actors-models

... could be a second season for this series might come about, storylines-are-present, sure hope it does.. the action-drama-genre can always use another worth watching... especially on Netflix productions being they're not always realized the best, and why some viewers downgrade many of their offerings not deserving it.

As I stated in the description, this show is very difficult to review. I gave it six stars because it's worth more than 5. This is one of those shows that some will like and others won't. Hollywood has already gotten me accustomed to tiny little women beating up everybody after getting slammed around and then knocking them out. Unrealistic, yes, but par for the course for the last 20 years or so. For me though, the story started out a little too slow for my taste. It wasn't until halfway through the fourth episode that it finally got interesting, which is why I rated it so low. It's a loooooong slow buildup to the finale, which is rather anti climactic. Not as bad as the Game of Thrones finale, but pretty danged close. I'll watch a second season if they film one, just to see where they take it.

It is not as bad as I had read in the comments.

Obviously it's not the best series in the history of television, but I don't think it tries to be.

It's true that it has elements that are not very credible, but it's entertaining, and who expects a fictional series to be credible?

It is clarifying little by little the questions that it raises at the beginning and many scripts do that, so I don't think that is a defect, but a very common dramatic resource to maintain the interest.

I've watched it all the way through without any effort, while others with more fame I haven't made it past the second chapter, or the second season.

It's not one of those that makes you sad to see it end, but I think it fulfills its role of entertaining.

And that's why I rate it with a 6/10, because without being good it's not boring.
