Info

Notorious Los Angeles defense attorney Sebastian Stark becomes disillusioned with his career after his successful defense of a wife-abuser results in the wife's death. After more than a month trying to come to grips with his situation, he is invited by the Los Angeles district attorney to become a public prosecutor so he can apply his unorthodox-but-effective talents to putting guilty people away instead of putting them back on the street.

Shark Audience Reviews

Jeanskynebu the audience applauded
Catangro After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
SnoopyStyle Sebastian Stark (James Woods) is a hot-shot defense attorney. Only, his latest successful client got off to kill again. He is devastated and joins the prosecution vowing to put away the guilty. Danielle Panabaker plays his daughter. Sophina Brown and Sarah Carter play his minions. Jeri Ryan plays the D.A.James Woods creates a great character. He drives the show simply by the powers of his personality. In fact, his manic energy overpowers everything else on the screen. It works for the first season. His energy literally powers the whole show. However, it never developed enough support from the other characters. The second season just deteriorated. Without more support, Woods' act gets tiring.
swatjester-1 Tries for the wit and speed of Boston Legal and fails. While another commentator tries to say "this is what real prosecutors do", he obviously has no clue. Real trial work, especially criminal, is slow, tedious, and boring. 90% of cases don't go to trial, and the ones that do never look anything like TV.It's not a bad show, but it's not as good as Boston Legal, not by far. The acting is OK, the camera work is mediocre, and the writing is average. Ho hum. Another average court show. If I wanted to watch that I'd watch one of the dozens of law and order knockoffs. There's no real catch to this show.
akulier-1 This really is a great show, fast-paced, witty dialogue, and James Woods does what he does best. That really IS his role. But, forgive me folks, but what's with this American obsession with youth? Why did he get so much - and so bad - plastic surgery, and robably botox on top? He is a great actor, but you just can't see it because he looks just like a zombie. What's wrong with having a few wrinkles a guy his age? Would actually add to his credibility. This appearance certainly doesn't.Other than that, this show really is about what makes the US so appealing to the rest of the world. Cool guys, hot babes and a lot of high class entertainment. If only the real world could be as cool as this. But has anyone noticed that, while a few years back, it used to be cool to be in the defense side, nowadays the "heroes" are on the side of the law. The times are-a changing - back.
slapdab This is an excellent vehicle to show how good an actor James Woods is. He carries it and when he is on screen you don't look at anyone else.Jeri Ryan, Danielle Panabaker and Henry Simmons are OK. Unfortunately, the actors playing his young assistants appear to have been chosen for their looks rather than their acting skills. They are generally bland and uninteresting. Sarah Carter is the worst - you would think she is on a catwalk. She always seems to be trying to show off her looks and dare not have a expression on her face unless it cracks. Is she a shop window dummy or something? However, I would like to make a special mention for Alexis Cruz: he is inexperienced but he makes an effort. I wish him well.
