Evengyny Thanks for the memories!

WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

SnoopyStyle Jane Sadler (Kyra Sedgwick) is a stressed out Hollywood producer of a cop show which taps into some real police scandals due to her secret police informer. She does drugs in her backyard shed as her daughter Lake goes missing from her room in the night. Initial suspicion falls on her ex-husband Pete Greene. Her sister Ali Petrovich (Erika Christensen) calls the police. Robbery homicide detective John Bird (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje) investigates. Jane's assistant Casey (Emily Kinney) is secretly having a fling with Pete and gives him a fake alibi. As the investigation heats up, her two worlds collide. Video evidence captures her drug dealer PJ and then there's her maid.The pieces of an intriguing missing child story seems to be here. Sedgwick is a first rate actress. It's a compelling enough mystery with many suspects. However, it needs the lead detective to take over the screen. We need to investigate the case along with detective Bird but he's only a co-lead in this show. He's barely moving and we're always ahead of him. The other co-lead Jane is not sympathetic. The only way to salvage that would be sympathy for the kid. We need more of the kid. She has no characteristics, no screen time, and no more than an object or a plot device. It's still a compelling mystery until after several episodes. Then Casey's plan is revealed and I don't understand it. She doesn't want to kill Lake but Lake would be able to identify her and her co-conspirators. The original plan doesn't work on its face value. When the central crime is obvious nonsense, the whole show crumbles. Probably coincidentally, the show loses its spot on the schedule and gets relegated to burn-off. This is nothing new here and not well constructed anyways.

tee-19503 I Think Kyra Sedgwick is a very good actress! I used to watch her in the Closer and thought it was well written as well as the acting. From the very first episode of this series I just knew it was going to be bad! I mean sure she could be a coked out successful writer of a show, but what kind of a mother goes to work the morning after discovering her kid, her ONLY kid no less has been kidnapped???? I don't care if she thinks the father took her or not!! There must have been some powerful stuff in that coke!! I started losing interest after that. Then all the lies that she was getting over on the cops with, just silly! The ONLY reason I am still watching is after "Donovan" and "The Wisdom of the Crowd" (not a bad new show) there isn't anything really on so I DVR it and since it's only 10 weeks WTH. I would never stick to it if it were going to be a regular series. Terrible writing and acting, so if you haven't starting watching, DON'T BOTHER!

bigbrochris after the end of the first episode there are many questions to be had answered here 'who took then little girl is the father really as bad as he seems ' and I am personally loving the show myself and I cant wait to see more of it I am a single straight man yet this has really grown on me in even just the first episode I say ignore the bad reviews give the show a chance for yourself before deciding on whether to love or hate it but I love it

adambolton-47291 The acting in this pilot episode is, simply put, awful! In particular the 'performances' of Kyle Sedgwick and Kick Gurry; in fact, I've seen more convincing performances by my morning stools! It does, however, have potential....just; I will watch the next episode and see if it improves.
