User Reviews
What an excellent pilot
episode that, whilst 'almost' complete in itself opens up endless
future plot possibilities. The lead character is perfectly cast and the
plot is thankfully without the usual clichés that seem to beset this
genre. I found the show to be completely engaging and paced just right.
The lead characters narration never intrudes, instead it intensifies the
plot by adding an additional and often alternative perspective to what
might easily have been one dimensional scripting. If you are looking for
(or expecting) an action packed but ridiculously inaccurate and equally
improbable whizz kid hacker adventure I would venture to say with
certainty that this series will not satisfy. If, however, you are
looking for engaging 'hacker' based entertainment that doesn't offend
your sensibilities (or your IQ) then I'd guess you'll enjoy this show.
Every aspect from script through lighting to camera angles et al
evidenced that great thought had been put into this production by highly
skilled and experienced production individuals. I give the pilot a 9
out of ten and as another reviewer has already said I hope the show
continues with as much impact as it has started. Entertaining,
believable and doesn't require much if any suspension of disbelief on
the part of the viewer. Well recommended.
