Okay, okay, fine. This was pretty good! The action was slick, there was just enough character development to keep me intrigued, and as I've mentioned, it's really really pretty. But I'll admit that what really hooked me was the developing bromance between O'Laughlin's and Caan's characters. They had me at "Let's just not talk." "You mean right now, or ever again?" And then they sealed the deal with "Your brain must be a miserable place. I need a beer." Of course, looking at that now, I'm not sure it makes much sense out of context. So, clearly, you must see the context. Watch the premiere online if you missed it, and join in the fun next week.

I watched it too. It was pretty good, the bromance was done really well.
I'm sad to say, I didn't place Grace Park right away! The shame! the horror!
I really enjoyed this, but then again I'm a Scott Caan fan. I was hoping he'd be more of the central character (since I'm not that familiar with the original) but still, good fun. Bonus - Spike!
