V Audience Reviews

GurlyIamBeach Instant Favorite.
Borserie it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.
Ella-May O'Brien Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
Terryfan When V started the series really grab my attention from the get go as it did with many viewers. It looked like ABC had found a worthy SCI/Fiction show. It had a interesting mix of cast members. Elizabeth Mitchell, Joel Gretsch, Morris Chestnut, Logan Huffman, Laura Vandervoort, Morena Baccarin, Scott Wolf, Christopher Shyer, Charles MesureThe plot of the series was really good and was enough to hold your attention and the first season was such a ground breaker that really you didn't think a network like ABC could pull something like that off.However Season 2 is when it all started to fall and fall hard. I mean you know the old saying "If it ain't broke don't fix it"? they went from having a promising series to letting it get too far and it just wasn't the way the series should have went.In my opinion it was fine the way it was. I'm just really felt let down from a series that such high hopes only to be disappointed with the final results
Nemesis42 If you can acclimatize to the consistent and unrelenting cascade of plot holes this is quite enjoyable. Forgo much of your logic and enjoy this microcosm of charterers in the small created world of the series.Normally something like this would not work and the inconsistencies in logic would distract to much. But the production values are very high, the characters are extremely well etched and memorable, their ensemble is excellent and it is very well directed. For this reason the drama returns back to us over the threshold and it becomes watchable. Just.The performances by most are effective, especially Anna. She will reliably give you creeps while she inhabits the well designed world of the series. Some of the acting is, how would I say, highly stereotyped though. The priest however is a bastion of normality within the story. I could really relate to him. He is one of the characters who reacts logically to everything and feels real.If you like scifi you will probably like this.It is fast paced too so it will impress the impatient.
saracogluozge Any show can contain some plot holes, esp sci-fi series are a bit more susceptible. But I have never watched anything that contains so much plot holes, illogical approach and sloppy editing. If you have an average IQ you will feel that producers are mocking with you. the worst part is the 5th Column. They are "good aliens" whom want to eliminate alien queen Anna (Anna is the antagonist who has a secret agenda, show herself as a very helpful alien but makes plans to occupy earth ). They are shown to sacrifice themselves in order to keep the identity of the members etc. But whole 2 seasons no member thinks to go to press and say "Hey I am alien too, this is our secret agenda, and these are the proofs" moreover no one tries to assassinate Anna. Btw Anna always wonders alone without any security etc
benosler WARNING: This review DOES contain spoilers.I've just finished watching the last episode of the series and I feel utterly and completely let down.I'm a fan of the original but approached this re-imagining with an open mind and was pleasantly surprised. Gone is the camp 1980s vibe, the cheesy Visitor Willy, the big hair and the unbelievable over-acting of Diana.The new Visitor's leader Anna is believably evil and the central plot has been updated to be more believable also; the Visitors do not want us as a source of food - which one would have thought could be cooked up by any hi-tech alien culture in a laboratory, instead they want to cream off the best parts of our DNA.In fact all of it was enjoyable watching with good strong characters developed over time until, that is, I came to the last episode which ends the series so abruptly and inappropriately.I feel robbed! Why did I waste my time on this? It's like you are reading a really good Agatha Christie novel and you finally get to the bit where all the guests are assembled in the library, you turn the page and you see "The End".This is a show that was abruptly cancelled it's true but not wanting to spoil it I didn't read about it's cancellation and watched it on DVD believing there'd be some kind of a satisfactory outcome. The DVD case should have been marketed with a great big red sticker over the front of it reading "Warning: This is an unfinished work!".
