Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

An excellently intelligent science fiction program that featured some brilliant writing, imaginative direction, high production values, and superb performances by an outstanding cast. Brent Spiner and Peter Dinklage do some wonderful characterizations and steal every scene in which they appear. Without them, Threshold wouldn't be nearly as interesting as it is. Charles Dutton is adequate but unfortunately overused, ubiquitous in series television and therefore rendered ineffective by repetition. The first two dozen similar characters he has played have sometimes worked but he doesn't fit into this particular ensemble. His presence is simply jarring and often downright irritating. However, it is Carla Gugino who anchors the drama and proves again what a gifted actor she is. Her interpretation of the character of Molly is nothing short of magnificent, dynamic, and fascinating. It doesn't hurt that every frame with her image is mesmerizing and she lights up the screen as few actresses can. The camera simply loves her and the directors are wise enough to let their lenses linger on her and allow her just a few seconds more than the usual time in every close-up, leaving the audience satisfied yet still craving more. There is no doubt that when she appears, the viewer can't take their eyes off her. She is intelligence, beauty, and strength personified. The charisma and magnetism of Gugino is magnified by her natural beauty and stunning eyes. She is no Emily Watson but she is still quite good. The cast has strong chemistry and their interactions, with the exception of Dutton intrusion, are the best part of the program. Overall, this is a very satisfying science fiction series that deserved to remain on the air because it had so much potential and so much more to offer viewers.

I hate Brannon Braga as a Star Trek writer. His post Enterprise work along with Star Trek alum Brett Spiner however does not suck. Carla Gugino is a good actress and very beautiful unlike Jolene Blalock who was just pretty. Peter Dinklidge, the only reason Game of Thrones is good (yes I said that) shows he was cool before GoT had him on. Brett Spiner is well, not Data but still good. Nobody seems to be a bad actor, The premise is cliché but in a good way, despite the usual Brannon Braga idiocy at times. Good actors can win over a bad script and Threshold proves this. It getting prematurely canceled is sadly typical for science fiction in this era, especially good series. I wish they had a second season as I am partial to Catherine Bell, an actress who like Carla Gugino is gorgeous as well as decent when it comes to acting joining the cast like what was planned.Overall Threshold is a clichéd sci fi drama that is saved by great acting and worth at least looking into.

Our TV world revolves around three main types of show - hospital dramas, crime dramas and sci-fi dramas. Some of them are corkers (there are corkers in all three categories) whereas some of them are total cr*p. Threshold just is. It serves no real purpose and is really just made to try and hook a few more people who were going off Sky a bit. But it didn't hook me. I watched about five minutes of it before I switched over - it is mundane and uninspired. The Threshold logo looks interesting and the trailer is superbly gripping, but all trailers for crime/sci-fi series try to put in as much action as possible to get you into them, when all you're really going to be watching is a group of boring old gits talking to each other in buildings rather than blowing things up. At least Doctor Who is enjoyable and action-packed. This is just boring and shows a lack of imagination and ideas. My review can't be very detailed because I've seen so little of it, but that helps prove my case even further, if you get my drift. 4/10

Ahh, Threshold, how I miss you. You were one of the best scifi/alien shows out there. Not too dramatic, like Roswell could be, or too complicated, like Invasion (I thought it was complicated and confusing. Bite me.), or too silly, like Surface. You were, in all sense of the word(s), near-perfect. There were some things you needed to work on, such as lines for the actors, but other than that, and never showing the alien in the Dreams, I loved you. *sigh* *gets serious* This show was, and still is IMO, one of the best scifi shows out there; It had a great plot, premise, action, and there was some actual decent drama stuck in there with the scifi seriousness. They had cool actors, like Brent Spiner and Carla Guigino. They had a good plot. They had an awesome premise. And the action sequences...Well, they could of been a little bloodier, but I digress. This show rocked, and I'm still mad at CBS for taking it off the air.
