    it worth to watch it!

    Review - 'Believe" (2014)

    Genre; Drama/Fantasy

    Director: Alfonso Guaron

    Writers: Alfonso Cuaron (creator), mark Friedman (creator)

    http:truemoviebuff.wordpress.com

    Cast: Jake McLaughlin as Tate, Johnny Sequoyah as Bo, Jamie Chung as Channing, Seinna Guillory as Moore, Kyle MacLachlan as Skouras, Delroy Lindo as Milton Winter

    When I first time heard about this TV show, I told myself; "Finally, since "Fringe" we're going to see something extraordinary interesting on TV". But when that "extraordinary" comes with such big name as Alfonso Cuaron, then we all have no choice but at least to watch the Pilot episode of "Believe". and that's I exactly what I did.

    Since we had so many cancelled TV shows such as 'Alcatraz", "Event", and "Park Avenue", film makers should be extra careful with picking a new idea, before making a new show. Because, it is not that easy to make us watch something ridiculously unrealistic story.

    Since Alfonso Cuaron is the one who has created "Believe" I would still take a risk and watch it. Because this person is smart enough to not offer a boring story. "Believe" tells the story of a little girl Bo (Johnny Sequoyah) with extraordinary gift. And certainly, having such a power (still unknown what is her power about except a few tricks she has done in the first episode) not safe for a little girl. And to make sure that she is safe, Milton Winter (Delroy Lindo) asks Tate (Jake  McLaughlin) to take care of her from Moore (Seinna Guillory) and Skouras (Kyle Maclauglan).

    In the first episode we see a few action scenes, which is mean that there are still many more are coming. It's still unclear what kind of organization is coming after Bo, but it more looks like a security agency who also wants to own/to take under control Bo's power. The story still developing, and it goes deeper so far which makes me to watch the second episode as well, just to make sure that it really worth to watch it.

    It's hard to say whether I liked "Believe" or not. But in one fact I am absolutely certain; it does not matter who stays behind this story line, Alfonso Cuaron or Steven Spielberg, all what is important is a good acting. If the actors are good enough to execute their roles and makes us believe that they are the part of the show, then yes, I am in. I'll be there wit them till the end. And so far, I see a quite believable performance in "Believe" which is a good sign.

    Sci-Fi series filled with intrigue , noisy action , emotion and supernatural deeds

    Plot summary : Tate (Jake McLaughlin) is on death row and has only 30 minutes until his execution. He's visited by a priest who tells him he's there to help him break out - as long as Tate agrees to do a job for him. Tate agrees and soon finds himself employed by Milton Winter (Delroy Lindo) - who impersonated the priest - and Channing (Jamie Chung) to care for a young girl, Bo Adams (Johnny Sequoyah) who has extraordinary abilities . There are powerful forces who want to get control of her and her skills and Tate's first job is to get her out of the hospital after her , there they are chased by a cruel killer woman (Sienna Guillory). Two major groups are fighting to get to Bo and her supernatural powers . While the connection of Winter and his team to Bo was clear, the involvement of Skouras (Kyle MacLachlan) was murkier , as he is the employer of a mercenary sent to retrieve Bo . Meanwhile , FBI Agent Elizabeth Farrell (Trieste Kelly Dunn) is in charge of tracking down an escapee and Bo Adams . Later on , Bo and Tate are on their way to the safe house in Philadelphia but have to stop in Atlantic City on the way .

    Entertaining TV series plenty of action , thrills , suspense and supernatural events . It is a crossover between ¨Touch¨ series and ¨D.A.R.Y.L.¨ film with a little girl and an escaped inmate being pursued by all kind of forces such as CIA , FBI , Police and other strange organizations as a group known as Orchestra . Furthermore , an enjoyable relationship between two main protagonists , the girl with fantastic skills and a death row escapee . Nice acting by Johnny Sequoyah as a little girl who has extraordinary powers , to sense the feelings of others and the ability to influence those around her and acceptable interpretation by Jake McLaughlin as a tough young who cares the child against violent enemies . The first two episodes of "Believe," viewers have seen some of Johnny Sequoyah's powers and been told that she may have even greater untapped abilities , what hasn't been explored, though, is the source of her abilities . Very good support cast such as Delroy Lindo as Milton , Sienna Guillory as a highly skilled assassin , Jamie Chung as enticing Channing , Kyle MacLachlan as nasty Skouras , Rami Malek as Dr. Adam Terry and many others .

    The first part is a magnificent thriller chapter introducing the attractive characters ; the second one is a solid episode that, while lacking the visual flair of the pilot, does a good job furthering the story and adding new complications.This is a new NBC ratings hit supernatural series splendidly created by Mark Friedman and recently Oscarized Alfonso Cuaron (Gravity) . Being lavishly produced by great TV producers as Bryan Burk , Kathy Lingg , Athena Wickham and J.J. Abrams (Lost , Person of interest , Revolution , Almost human) .

    So annoying and unbelievable

    I know that these types of shows are about stretching the limits of your imagination but this show goes well above and beyond that. The main bad guy is confused - is he good, is he bad, is he just horribly written. I could wade through all the plot holes and 2 dimensional characters but I can't get through Bo. She is the most annoying protagonist. We are told time and time again how "amazing" she is, how "special" she is, how "sweet" she is. How everyone "loves" her and is "touched" by her. Actually all she is is annoying and spoiled, throwing tantrums and screaming all over the place to get her way. This gets in the way a lot of the time and ends up putting other people's lives in danger. She is supposed to be "gifted" beyond all measure - I was hoping for a more mature and nuanced performance but oh well, wishful thinking it is. I think as a character she would be more likable and "special" if she acted less like a spoiled brat.

    Nice surprise twist, but little else

    It seems to me that this show does not rise above the typical supernatural/action/mystery shows being produced of late. The premise is implausible. The show's mystery is probably unknown even to the writers and creators. It has one or two fine actors, and a somewhat surprise ending, and little else.

    I'm also surprised by the budget of this show. If this was an indie film on youtube, we might be more forgiving, but this is a night-time network television show. The average audience member is too sophisticated to believe that we're actually watching a man on his way to his execution, in loose handcuffs, down a darkened hallway with two guards and a priest. It seems too much to ask us to forgive the low budget, the shaky premise, the poor direction and acting and camera-work, and the lack of music soundtrack, for so little payoff.

    I suspect this show will be lucky to get a second season, and so I won't invest more time watching something that is unlikely to get an ending.

    I've heard it suggested that if a film or TV show has a vague spiritual message, it will score high marks on IMDb, and this seems to be the only reason for this show to garner an 8+.

    Harks back to the good old days, it's good...

    I'll start by saying I'm not a film critic or a buff or have any desire to critique the directing or script or anything which a film student might get off on... I'm writing this because I enjoy being entertained...

    This series has a lot to offer, there is a strong recurring story line running throughout but at the same time you get the immediate satisfaction of a feel good story in each episode similar to what you used to get in the littlest hobo when the dog would befriend a down and out or a depressed old woman who thinks her son has died, that kinda thing :)

    In short you feel good for watching this, it's a nice show with nice characters and a cute kid.

    There are so many great series out there at the moment and while this isn't current "great" it's easy to get swept up with the action on screen so long as you put reality to one side and "Believe".

    Oh, plus the Asian chick is bow-chikka-wow-wow!!!
