Review of Crisis

Crisis (2014)
6/10
Better than 'Hostages' but still too ridiculous
9 May 2014
The kids of some powerful people are on a field trip. Their bus is hijacked. Secret service agent Marcus Finley (Lance Gross) is given a new assignment to protect the president's son. He manages to rescue one kid and he's teamed up with FBI agent Susie Dunn (Rachael Taylor). She has a secret daughter who's on the bus. Her sister Meg Fitch (Gillian Anderson) is a powerful woman who assumed the mother role for the girl. Francis Gibson (Dermot Mulroney) is a father of one of the kids and is secretly the brains behind the kidnappings. He's on a vendetta against a mysterious scheme from CIA head.

This is a very unbelievable unreasonable show. The only thing is that I could buy into it because people would do anything to get their kids back. That's the point that I could always cling to. The scheme and the action moves fast enough that I don't dwell on any clunky moments. It's definitely better than another similar show 'Hostages'. It has its moments as long as you don't think about it too much. It's a midseason replacement that was canceled before it finished its first half season.
