Predictable, cliche spy thriller shlock
This will be very straight to the point. The lead female protagonist is played by a very wooden actress. The lead male protagonist isn't exactly the most exciting actor either but he shines by comparison.
Robert Patrick and Hong Chau give weight to an otherwise unsteady cast.
Each episode's screenplay, such as they are, aren't probably treated by the director to make the dialogue at least try to work in a number of moments. Nonetheless these are issues that could also have been fixed in the editing room. The mistakes are as baffling as scenes where the dialogue is clearly written for the action to be fast, but what transpires on screen before us is mind numbingly slow - or vice versa.
So to are there a lot of odd jumps that are either shoddy writing, shoddy editing, or shoddy direction.
Is this show watchable? Sure. But only an idiot doesn't know what happens next.
