I came upon this movie after seeing an edit about the leads and the plot from the trailer looked interesting enough, so I gave this a try. CW's not really known for releasing exemplary shows with amazing acting -at least not recently- but I thought that Vanessa Morgan and Giacomo Gianniotti had a cool dynamic going on in this Canadian series. Their characters aren't completely unique in terms of personality and personal trauma, but all of the detective/crime antics were fun to follow. Although it seems a little low-budget with the sets and acting, the crimes had some great twists and resolutions. The mains, Max and Ellis, did have good teamwork and the chemistry/tension came on naturally and didn't feel forced or awkward. Max As CW shows go, the script was definitely still cheesy and the cast -excluding Max and Ellis- could've been better, but I enjoyed watching it nonetheless and couldn't wait for the finale episode which had its own share of twists and scams. The show left off on a cliffhanger and it's torture now that I have to wait for the next season, but I'm just relieved it was renewed! Based on the first season, I'd rate this a 6.5/10 🖤
It's pretty much Hudson and Rex, swap out Rex for Max. Instead of a police dog, an attractive troublemaking potential love interest. A Murtaugh/ Riggs type buddy cop show with a fish out of water twist. She's an experienced con-artist, who got in hot water with the police... major crimes... and the police are letting her work off her jail sentence by solving crimes. On a trial basis. He's on thin ice with his job/ superiors also, could get back in good grace by solving crimes with his wisecracking criminal partner. It's not even vaguely realistic, it's totally over the top... imagine Hannah Montana solving crimes with Thomas Magnum. In Canada. Harmless/ mindless fun.
I think this show is really rather good I mean granted it's pretty just like most of the other little cop shows and trying to figure out things. However, with that being said, think she's quite spunky, I like her style I'd like the fact that she's a woman that has a thought process other than what generally people think we should think. I give this rating a nine only because of fear of given 10. Great show definitely would recommend. I think that the character of the male is a little bit too harsh. I think he needs to understand that with his new partner he has somebody he can trust. He's needing to learn that it's OK if it's a little bit on the gray side as long as it doesn't tip over his anxiety is about his brother. That's his issue he needs to get over it. I kinda like that but again I feel that her character is a lot better more needed more med and I like her father.
This tv is pretty good. The 1st episode had a very great twist at the end. If Vanessa Morgan wasn't in it then I wouldn't of gave it a chance. She is very much the attraction and eye candy. I'm excited to see where this TV show will end up and is going to go. In the age of cancelations after 1 season, I really hope this show does not get canceled after one season. It seems all the fun shows get canceled and the garbage shows gets renewed. I hope the fans will get behind this because we need more good shows on the market like this. I really also hope these two can stay partners. Not every show with a male and female lead needs to lead to romance.
There is no new story here and every episode has been pretty far fetched when it comes to reality. It's like a fake wanna be white collar with both the cop and the crook being very attractive to look at. Giacomo was a better actor in Greys Anatomy but at least this is his shot and the show hasn't been cancelled yet.... Oh but it's coming. The actress who plays Yates is by far my favorite in the show because she's quirky and she brings a little goofiness and fun to it. Chief Li is hot, 90210s Jason Priestley plays Max's dad and to me.... They're not far enough in age physically speaking. I didn't look to see how old Max actually is. Either way, the show isn't terrible, Marc (the cat) is adorable, everyone is hot looking and it probably won't get another season so watch it now.
