Conviction Audience Reviews

FeistyUpper If you don't like this, we can't be friends.
Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!
InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
sakharv 1) It is a female lead show. Not many of those on air. 2) Hayes is privileged, yet objective on controversial issues. Both are requirements for her job as head of the CIU. And although she is considered flawed and destructive and problematic, her objectiveness and vulnerability (which in my opinion originated in her privileged, yet overexposed childhood) redeem her. 3) The CIU is not a fictional unit. It exists in certain cities throughout the country. People should know about this fact. 4) The show brings diversity in many regards. And I for one love that Hayes is bi (and this fact was stated in a very casual, matter- of-factly way, as it should be). Plus Hayes and Maxine have developed a good friendship. And so have Tess and Frankie. 5) Tess has questioned her white privilege on multiple occasions. I think that makes her a fantastic role model. And we need more episodes to see that Matty actually forgave Tess (and that forgiveness is possible in such life-altering situations). 6) Frankie portrays that people can reform after a conviction. A prison sentence does not define a person. Human beings are multi- faceted, complex individuals who can change and improve. 7) And above all, the show brings up controversial issues that many people don't often think about or purposefully overlook because those issues don't affect their daily lives.
leopalski I loved Hayley Atwell in Agent Carter and love her in this as well! The reasoning for why she got the job is not very believable , but I really think all the actors and their characters are great and interesting to watch. I don't think it would work if they weren't.I don't know why, but the boss relationship issue seems a little over used, but it doesn't spoil the rest of the show. When all put together, there is plenty of conflicts and issues within the different characters to keep me wanting to see more.I really like it! Hayley is a great actress and is surrounded by great actors here as well!
Urien Uthyr I just love this show.Finally a fresh new approach to justice, a show that actually is different and stands apart from the multitude of shows showing basically the same.The premise of the show itself is great, because it deals with the monster inside the closet. How the justice system condemns innocent people, just because not everyone can pay for six digits lawyers.Another thing done brilliantly in this show is the cast. How can we not relate to this cast!? The cast, each actor and actress, is fundamental to the success of this show. It's clear that each have their own secrets and things they aren't proud of. So each member of that team as to in a way, deal with their personal beliefs and ghosts.The potential is great but honestly I don't see this show having a long lifespan. Three to four seasons at most. The problem being that at a certain point, viewers are gonna get tired of seeing them handling situations where we already known from the very beginning that the person in jail is innocent. They might create scenarios where even after proved innocent, the person either prefers to keep the blame or doesn't have anything to go back to. Turning wins into losses. We're already seeing that.So... How long before we the viewers get tired of seeing the same situations over and over. I really hope they have a plan of expanding this show into other fields, or eventually the show won't be able to grab its viewers.For now the show still has a lot to show and do. So as long as it lasts I'll watch it.
Shannon Smith Flowers The first episodes was questionable but I decided to give it another chance. Before the end of episode 2 I was love with the show. This show has talent and heart! Atwell is perfect as Hayes and Kinney was perfectly cast. I'm still waiting for a little more from Cahill and Ashmore but I am fan of both and know what they can bring to the table. Franklin and Jackson are my two favorite characters and I would love to see more developed story lines for them. Dungey also plays a dynamic character. This show has the bones for something remarkable. I hope it gets a chance to get there before being tossed away. The content is already becoming more interesting.
