I thought that this was pretty good, will be waiting for the next one

 

[Iron-man]

good first episode but I loved the film, Show will be just as good I imagine but hopefully give us some more around the storyline

 

[Malevolence]

Yeah, was a pretty good start to the series.

 

[TheOtherOption]

Liked it but not sure how this'll work stretched out over a series - still it's the kind of series I enjoy so am here for the ride!

 

[Glaucus]

its a great film, not sold on the trailer, just looks like a remake. probably give it a go depending how its review.

Reviewers these days all have an agenda, why not just watch it and make up your own mind?

 

[FTM]

if its more based around the book Point of impact, then the film, then it should be ok

also means you could then recycle the lead in the other swagger books (though they did get increasingly stupid)

main problem is the lead

in the books swagger is an older man..a vietnam veteran

they only changed it for the film in the first place,plus they have conjured a family for him..the whole point of the book was that he was an angry loner and so was the perfect choice to be a patsy as everybody would suspect him

Second episode was alright, slightly different from the route the film takes (I think?!) but enjoying it none the less!

Ending sounds good for some retribution in the coming episodes

 

[Mynight]

It's nice they're taking a detour from the film means I haven't necessarily seen it already .

Certainly the best movie to TV adaptation I've come across.


Although I really wish they'd just call him Bob rather than his full name each time .

 

[Phonesis]

It seems ok... dunno think I prefer film still after these first 2 episodes. It seems toned down somehow (even though the film was hardly hardcore).

Spoiler

The fight scene in the jail cell boosted it up a few notches mind.

 

[Mynight]

Damn that was a grim episode .

 

[Roar87]

I've really enjoyed the series so far, surprised more people haven't watched it.

 

[pecnarf]

I waiting until all episode are on Netflix, then I'm going to watch then all in one go, same goes for frequency and shadowhunters.

 

[TheOtherOption]

Good latest episode - didn't entirely see it coming but liked how it ended.

One to go!

 

[hyperseven]

Cracking ep, didn't have high hopes for this movie turned series but pleasantly surprised. Also epic Chase & Status track during the warehouse scene.

 

[MoRT489]

OMG, anyone watch the finale? I hope they get a second season, really need to know what that look was all about!

 

[Punt]

I think I'll give this a go, binge it over a few days. Seems to be mostly positive feedback!

 

[Caged]

It's alright I guess. Easy to watch, about on the same level as NCIS.

 

[CHokKA]

I binge-watched this and I really enjoyed it! I thought the film was awesome and so I was wondering at first just how they'd pull off a TV series, but they really did it justice. Everything was fleshed out so much more and the action scenes were amazing! I can't wait to see what season two has in store!

Only 5 Episodes in so far, but really enjoying it and very impressed.

Was very much in two minds about it having seen the film on numerous occasions, but this is so much better. Haven't read the novel "Point of Impact" that both are based on so can't comment on how this compares to it, but would like to think it does a decent job, at least more so than the film. If anyone has read the book I'd be interested to hear what they think.

Very glad I gave it a chance and look forward to viewing the rest of the Season.

Would certainly highly recommend it to others, and easily over the film.
