Watched the first episode. Not as funny as Fawlty Towers, but it was ok I guess.

The finale was strange. It seemed to move too fast just to get closure . Felt forced . Wonder how close to real life regarding arms trading is? Overall 3.5 stars out of 4.

I've only watched the first episode, but it felt a little rushed to me. I think the main character's motivation would have been a little more believable if his relationship with the female informant had been expanded on. it was incredibly rushed and not very realistic. Alternatively, it might have been better if it was done away with entirely - have a visibly shaken woman give him the envelope for safekeeping with no further information. He wouldn't take it seriously until the woman ends up dead. Let him get involved in the world of intrigue when he tries to make use of the mysterious package some how. Well, I would guess world class arms dealers don't send out invoices with the company letterhead with words like "NAPALM" and "GENERAL PURPOSE BOMB" written on them. |
