Recensione in evidenza
Imitation of murder
As far as the previous episodes go, all of a consistently high standard (with only "The Third Horseman" disappointing a little), "The Faithful", "Jones" and "Homo Homini Lupus" are to me especially outstanding. It was amazing to see how well and quickly 'Law and Order: Criminal Intent' settled, same with 'Special Victims Unit' and although the original is my personal favourite of the franchise surprisingly it didn't settle as quickly.
"Seizure" is another solid 'Law and Order: Criminal Intent' episode with everything that is so good about the show in its prime, which were the earlier seasons rather than the latter ones, present. Not completely flawless and not one of the show's very best, but still there is so much to love all the same. It does sound like familiar ground, as it is not a new concept or kind of case at all (it's been done a lot before and since), but makes a big effort in trying to turn it on its head and include itsown touches.
Even if it doesn't always come off. The story and character motivations can at times far-fetched and not always easy to swallow, like the previous episode "Phantom" there is some suspension of disbelief needed for a well-respected character behaving like the way she does without suspicion being raised.
The rage and lesion stuff is not always as easy to follow as it could have been.
Have no problem with the production values which are as slick as ever. The music is appropriately placed and the tone of it is just about right, the theme tune doesn't grate. The script is intelligently written and tight, Goren's character writing is still a joy and just love his methods and intuition (like with the hand). The story takes what could have been very standard and makes it quite creepy, with things, even with the not so subtle supporting character writing, not being what they seem ever. The psychological element in the early parts are intriguing.
Did find the main supporting characters interesting, especially Cathleen Dwyer whose neuroses get very unsettling. Vincent D'Onofrio is a pleasure to watch as always, while Jenny Bacon and James Naughton stand out of the supporting cast with the two most interesting characters. The former bringing a lot of intensity to her role and the latter bringing smarminess to his.
Concluding, not always plausible but very interesting and solid. 8/10
