XIII: la série

I saw the original XIII Mini-series and thoroughly enjoyed it. This series started out fairly well, but the acting by many of the individuals was atrocious. The actress(?) portraying Betty is the perfect example. She seems to be a Jr. High School teenie bopper who is trying to act 'grown up'. Totally unrealistic in every aspect.

The series gets so confusing in the second season that I finally gave up and stopped watching. XIII/Victor goes back and forth so much, it's difficult or impossible to keep track and the end result is uninteresting.

Whoever did the casting for the parts was in training or just flipped a coin to decide who got what part.

Bad acting from the cast - wow ! Really bad acting -- The Make up artists - OMG - Wow - ?? Bad Cuts to fake blood and spill packs and wow just really really bad ?? How can this sow get good reviews , well the accurate attention to detail from GETAC Computers to Nikola Tesla and the history of the writing seems to be nice, the Acting from Most of the main characters are good !! But the casts, but the bad acting from the cast is really bad - and so is some of the camera angles in some shows , almost like they are trying to copy other directors , ?? mmmmm Save money on casting, save money on Make up , but spend tons on Getac computers and other items in the show -- ??? I am sorry but after the 9th show it gets bad , really stretching this thing... well I do fast forward now thanks to Netflix if I did not have the fast forward button I sure would hit the OFF switch thats for sure !!

I kind of liked watching that show. OK, I admit that it wasn't the best I've seen, but it wasn't that boring and Stuart acting was believable (I admit that at first I just watched it for Stuart). I was kind of lost in the first episode because I didn't know it was a follow up from another mini-series. But even if you haven't seen the first one, you catch up real quickly. The conspiracy theory could have been better, but I've seen worse. I think that even if some part of the show aren't that credible enough, it is quite enjoyable. But I must say that for a Canadian TV Show it is quite good. It has a storyline at least, not like others show of my country that I've seen and It has captured my attention, which is a difficult thing to do. The end of the first season was really great and it left me wanting to see the second one. But in all, I give it a 7 out of 10.

No review except, Great Movie and can't wait for season 3.

having watch the first two episodes (mini series) back in 2008 i was thrilled to learn that they actually did give a chance to "resurrect" xiii, as they gave us a lead-in in the final 2 minutes back then.

my hopes for a decent spy/advntr series died after the first episode and i quit trying to find a bit of interest in the first 20 minutes of the second one. Then, i just closed the "chapter" and delete it from my watch-list.

awful "resurrection" of a well promised two episodes "pilot", terrible action, and most of all, it was more predictable than a two years' child's effort to sing Pavarotti...
