Negative Positive
Title: Something with the potential to be good went wrong!
Review: I had never heard of this program or the book on which it is supposedly based. I came across it while wandering through the TV programs section. While I did not read the reviews, I did read the background to the story and told myself, why not? I watched the extended first episode of the first series and I was rather impressed. It had all the makings of leading in to a good series. Unfortunately, I then watched episode 2 and any thought of this becoming a good series went out the window. However, not being one to give up easily, I also watched episode 3 and by the end of that, I had seen enough. The dialogue was childish, the actors "over acted" frequently and not even the poorly executed "slo mo" fight scenes were going to save this program. Like I said, "in the beginning" it had the potential of making a good series. Perhaps the makers of this program should have just left the first extended episode as a TV mini-movie and left it at that.
Is the review positive or negative?
