Diagonaldi Very well executed
SpunkySelfTwitter It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.
TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.
ShelbyTMItchell Seven season show about an FBI unit that finds missing people. As they must be missing for at least 24 hours to be missing and the authorities can go out and search for them. As the authorities have a 72-hour window to find them.Some people come out alive in this. And finally reunite with their families. And some do not come out alive. As it gives it to the authenticity of the show. That all of the episodes, most do not come out with happy endings.The great Anthony LaPagila heads an ensemble cast. As the troubled head of the NY Field office. With fellow Australian Poppy Montgomery as the young Samantha Spade, who flirts with LaPagila's Jack Malone and Eric Close's Martin Fitzgerald.Rounding out the team of Jean Marie Baptise an UK actress doing an American actress as mother hen, Vivian Johnson who had health problems early on. Enrique Muricano as Dannhy Taylor who is best friends with Martin.Rose Sanchez as Elena Delgado as the new rookie agent. Really the team did not need her. As she kind of brought a damper to the already close knit team no offense to Sanchez fans.It shows also the personal lives of the team members. And how their experience got them that far.Really a great ensemble show! Still missed by many!
TheLittleSongbird Now I liked Without a Trace when it first started. It wasn't brilliant, but somehow it kept my attention. But later around the time Rosalyn Sanchez came on the scene, while not as badly as Special Victim's Unit did, it jumped the shark a bit. Without A Trace is slick, with nice photography and interesting locations, while the music is great. The best asset though for me is Anthony LaPaglia, who is excellent as Jack. That said, Without a Trace does have its problems. The story ideas are interesting and are decently written in general, but there is a lot of ponderous pacing in this show. I appreciate it is for character development and atmosphere but there is almost every episode with one scene with nothing happening other than haunting music and reflective facial expressions it does get a bit too much. The show's writing is not exceptional either, not awful granted but it can get uninteresting and repetitive on occasions. I also have to concur about Rosalyn Sanchez, I personally don't think she adds anything to the show, and her character does come across as rather cold and difficult to empathise with. Overall, it was decent, but it is a show of pluses and minuses. 5/10 Bethany Cox
anachain I've come to hate this show--the agents are so over the top and the events are so badly done that to say it stretches reality is greatly beyond an understatement. Malone is off-kilter so much he should be in jail for all the stuff he pulls. The personal drama between the characters detract too much from what's going on. The agents consistently abuse, threaten, and brow-beat suspects, witnesses, and victims that that whole unit should be looking for new jobs...or suspension at the least. I've stopped watching this show...no originals, no reruns, no more TiVo season pass.I started watching because of Eric Close--I thought this show would give him a chance to truly develop into a top-tier actor, but that just has not happened. LaPaglia is good as Jack Malone, but the overdone maverick behavior of Malone so distracts from the show--greatly so. However, the one actor that truly shines in the show is Marianne Jean-Baptiste as agent Vivian Johnson. She is the only one on the show that acts like an FBI agent with the portrayal of the character's personal side being the most believable.And to the CBS directors and writers, you guys need an FBI technical adviser for more than just a few shows...or fire Mark Llewellyn for doing such a poor job.
Laurence Dillon Roselyn Sanchez has completely destroyed the interest I used to have in this show.Her complete lack of acting ability just annihilates every scene that she is in. She mumbles through every line and is barely intelligible (and I am being nice).Her face is so completely devoid of emotion, one has to wonder why anyone would ever want to have such a negative presence on a formerly hit show.It must be hell for the other actors to have to share the screen with someone who gives them absolutely nothing to play against.Come on CBS, do the right thing and force the bad producers who hired her to fire her. Maybe killing her character would be good. It could be sold as a "very special episode".I know I'd watch it.
