Plot; A former FBI agent who now specializes in recovering stolen art and a thief and con-woman team up to stop a terrorist who funds his activities w/stolen art.
If you've ever read the author James Rollins, this series plays like one of his books done in live action. In many ways, it feels like a throwback. The kind of thing that would've aired in syndication in the 90s, sandwiched in between Baywatch and Beastmaster on a Saturday night. That's not a dig, but a compliment. Light, fast moving and refreshingly agenda free, it aims only to entertain, and to that end it mostly succeeds. Leads Matt Barr and Sofia Pernas are likeable individually and share an easy, if not exactly explosive, chemistry. These "will they or won't they?" relationships can often wear thin rather quickly, but for now it works. I liked them. I liked them together. I want them together.
This first feature-length episode shows enough promise to get me to check out the next one. If you're looking for a light, breezy bit of escape, I recommend giving this first episode a go.
