Review by Mark van Dijk

Complications 2015

Here's the thing: the plot is okay. I just really can't stand the way it's been filmed, 'cause see, it seems to be tailor made for a dumb audience, probably picking their navels while watching. It's overly simplified, so they spend a lot of time to make sure that you got the idea. Which you did, because you're not stupid! So you know what's going to happen and am just waiting to be proven right.

The other problem I have with this show is the typical all american white superhero man, versus the inherently evil black male killers. That stuff got old back in the 90s even. So the majority of people aren't into that stuff any more and that bubble got burst a long time ago.

I can't watch this anymore. Too bad, they could have done a much better job if they weren't so bound on making sure you got the plot, the setup, the idea, the central theme etc. Oh, and the names are stupid. Antoine, Gretchen, that kind of thing. Neh, simply not my thing all together. The only reason to keep watching: John Ellison's wife. Now that's a good actress. Beats the heck out of the others.
