Seriously absolutely terrible unwatchable crap. Though I did watch through to the end somehow.
It was ok until she appeared and the “love story” started. I had to turn it off before puking my guts out at their cheesy romance. Plus I can tell the plot will have no surprises… or does it? Maybe she’s actually a bad guy? Please let me know if that’s the case and fast forward through the romance parts. Thanks.
I saw this when it came out and it blew my mind. Such a great Zombie movie. I grew up in malls so it really hit the spot for me. What a dream to be living out the zombie apocalypse with your buddies in your own private fortified mall.
One of my top three favorite Zombie movies along with the Dawn of the Dead (1978) and I am Legend. People seem to be very polarized on this one so it’s likely you’ll love it or hate it. Either way it is incontestably a well made film.
Don’t understand why he would not take the check from his mom. Who cares where the reward money is coming from if it has even the slightest chance of helping find his son… plus his mom could post the reward herself as grandparents often do. Sound track is pretty good. Love they played a forest as closing song.
Great first episode. Excellent production value. Unlike some other commenters, I did not find it boring at all. Not usually a big Cumberbach fan but he’s very good here.
Not a bad little film. Nice suspense and tension. Stupidity of characters actions frustrating at times.
I agree with negative commenters it's not very good at all in many ways (acting and dialogue lol). However, some of the action sequences and pretty ferocious and lovely to watch. To bad they are so completely unrealistic in terms of the outcomes - ala hero shoots blindly and kills 100s bad guys while bad guys all miss... So many plot problems like the 10 highly trained rangers taken down by a small team of bad guys while our hero (untrained newbie scientist) is indestructible... I wish they had shown the battle with the rangers - that would have been fun to watch. The movie is definitely worth seeing if you are a Sci-fi fan. I think you'll be a bit disappointed but also a bit satisfied...
Good little show with great production value. Acting is good, sets are good, score and soundtrack are great. A little bit too much girl teenage drama. Only two episode in so hopefully they won’t ruin it…
Decent little film with some not bad action scenes. Particularly love the various robot soldiers. Goodish acting nice and moody score. SPOILER COMING UP The end is a bit weird but I’ve seen worse. First time for me to see a plot where AI kills himself and the government AI program to save humanity from AI. Wait does that make sense?
Terrible production value. Weird heavy metal danger music is particularly hilarious. I’ll never stop loving you Jackson (as an actor) but it’s time to hang up your hat. A couple of your scenes in here including the one in the car where you’re supposed to be drunk could win you the Oscar for worst leading man… Vincent is also in particularly poor form. Never heard of the other lead so I presume he’s always pretty bad. OMG the end is so terrible! Who made this? I’m looking up this director.
Very light comfort style mystery TV ala Murder She Wrote. Pretty slow and boring with mediocre mysteries at best but production value is quite good.
Very mediocre but good enough to pass the time if you have nothing else to watch.
Cheesy, bad sets, bad lighting, bad acting, annoying score. Lasted 21 minutes.
Just the description “Wealth, lust and betrayal set in Britain…” makes me want vomit my gust out. What’s wrong with people?!?
Wow that was sh*t. Effects were terrible. Did they do it on purposes to make it look like bad 80s special effect or do they just suck. Characters are also super annoying. I wanted to slap Paul, Finn and particularly MbKenna the whole time. I would have turned it off had I not passed out from boredom half way through.
95% Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes?!? Seriously? This movie is amateur grade turdola. It’s watchable, mildly entertaining and pace is ok but acting, dialog, plot, score are poop.
I believe all the high grades and positive reviews but me and my gal only lasted 4 minutes with this show. Seeing a girl describe her rape in brutal detail while watching the reenactment of it is not my idea of a good time.
Completely, totally unwatchable. Lasted 15 painfully bad minutes.
Probably pretty good but not for me…
Show starts off ok but by episode 3 it becomes unbearably cringy. There is not a single likable character here. It may be based on true events but those events where not that interesting, original or captivating…
I don’t care about her parents love story or her back story when she was a baby. Don’t care to watch the cringy dinner. Turned it off. Hard to watch a show when you dislike every single character and you’re constantly on the verge of cringing to death.
Bad acting, terrible action, super annoying background music. Not sure who the target audience is for this?!? Turned it off 10 min into first episode.
Super cringy episode. Almost stopped watching the show.
Decent little film with good acting and great sound track. A little cheesy and teenagery at times but worth watching. The movie works well for a younger audience since the heroine herself seems very young, the pace is quick and it’s all about popularity and social media etc. I put it on and my 13 year old son was definitely captivated. There is a scary moment however that might be too intense for younger viewers.
I love film noir of all kinds and private dick yarns in particular. It‘’s my favorite genre and I think I’ve seen almost every P.I. film or show ever made.
Sugar started off ok with a couple of bad/cheesy moments. I was hoping they were not red flags for worse to come. But it did get worse, much much worse.
Episode 3 is laughably bad and Episode 4 is a catastrophe. What do you know, they changed director starting with Episode 3. They also added a second writer. Both of these changes took the show from pretty bad to super awful.
Not surprising it was produced by Collin. He may have wanted to see himself as a film noir hero but unfortunately he failed. What he created is a noir knockoff with not a single original idea. Then there’s the dialogue which is a caricature of film noir banter and the inner monologue’s a total snooze fest.
Collin’s acting is mostly ok but it’s hard to tell if he’s bad at times or if it’s just his character that is moronic. Most of the other acting is horrible. Where bad actors cast on purpose to give Collin a little lift? Eric Lange as Byron Stallings is particularly terrible.
I’m not surprised by the good reviews on Rotten Tomatoes (“real critics” or off much of the time IMO) but even all fellow commentators on Trakt so far have give this crapola their praise. Perhaps they commented after seeing only the first episode?

It was obvious from the first scene that this was going to be the awesomest show.
Huge Bob Marley fan. Terrible film. The commenters who said the acting is good must be smoking some good sh*t… ooh and let’s use the word biopic.
They’re tracking someone whose cellphone number they have and on which they chat on a daily basis. Phone tracking anyone? Banderas is such a terrible actor it’s always a treat watching him humiliate himself on screen. The movie is definitely positively bad but not entirely boring or unwatchable.
Slightly too uninteresting and corny to be watchable unfortunately.
