Underground Audience Reviews

AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks
AutCuddly Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
seraph913 I absolutely love this show. It keeps me captivated and on the edge of my seat the entire time. The acting is phenomenal and I love watching it and love the storyline. Even though it's difficult content there's a lot of love and Hope threaded throughout.
MJ C going downhill. The story is great but killing off Marc Blucas' character, Jonathan Hawkes, was a mistake. The time lapsed photography along with the annoying music inserted into these spots is a distraction and I lose my concentration on the story. I loved this show last season and still love the story and acting, but the portrayal of the story is getting in the way. I guess someone decided their mark was more important than the characters and the story. :(
ray The music, some of the editing and language are all wrong. This is a historical piece but the music and sound statements are thoroughly modern and therefore out of place and time. The same can be said for the modern quick jump editing in some of the scenes. These are completely at home in a modern drama but only distract in this period piece. Language is another problem. Would someone in the 1850s really say "it doesn't look like there was any forced entry"? I think not. This is a modern Law & Order appropriate statement that does not fit. These inconsistencies don't ruin the series for me, they just make it harder to concentrate and enjoy the story.
drjgardner Underground is a classic escape drama with an historical look at the U.S. in the pre-Civil War period. There is a wealth of interesting characters on both sides of the Mason-Dixon line, including a pair of brothers, one of whom is a slave owner (Reed Diamond) and the other who is a new-born abolitionist (Marc Blucas). The focus of the drama is on seven slaves who escape and try to go 600 miles from Georgia to Kentucky.The series has all sorts of twists and turns, and the action switches back and forth from the slaves on the run, to the plantation, to the abolitionists. Along the way we get a good picture of life at the time.The music and photography are superior, and the acting is very good. It's really hard to single out any one of the many wonderful actors who contribute to the story, some of whom play minor roles (Johnny Ray Gill, Mykelti Williamson) and others who are featured throughout (Christopher Meloni, Amirah Vann).This is an excellent mini-series and I'm looking forward to the next season.
