Okay folks,
I get it that for most of you high and mighty reviewers Terra Nova seems to be dumb. but I honestly do not feel this way.
People complaining about some holes and everything is just ridiculous with a series that is sending people 80million years in the past. come on people, give them a chance. (if anyone is going to mention the asteroid again I'm going to scream ... 16 million years until impact you geniuses out there. that's enough for a thousand civilizations to rise and fall so stop whining and use your oh soo awesome brains)
so let me tell you that yes, the first 4 episodes a rather drama heavy with long character plots to get to know them. and yes, the CGI is not the best on the market. but that did not keep me from Doctor Who or LEX and it's sure as hell not going to keep me from anything else.
I really love the direction of the later episodes when the meta plot gets going and we get a broader picture of what is wrong with Terra Nova, Commander Taylor and the Sixers.
The acting still ranges between average and sometimes very good. episode 9 had a nice Stephen Lang moment.
give the show a try, maybe jump in the later episodes and forget about the CGI.
suspend the disbelief and just enjoy it. it's better than most of the other crap out there, and you can watch it with the whole family.
and dammit, it has Dinosaurs!
