It has humor and action scenes and interesting plots and good actors. and it gives the illusion to be a film about spies becoming a sort of Robin Hood. so,, nice, clever and preserving the flavour of classic/old policier. sure, the bad guys are not always credible but each pretext for a new episode could be more than good point for serie. so, a good mix of adventure, justice and the use of past for a better future. each - an invitation to see it.
... View MoreBurn Notice is one of the best written television series I've ever seen. If you want to learn how to build a character and how to string a main story arc through out a television series, then watch and study it. The entire series is on NetFlix and it is worth your effort to start at the very beginning. This series has carefully crafted out story lines as if all the episodes were written before they ever shot the pilot. The characters are so defined, that I'm still mourning the loss of one as if the character was a real person. That's how good this show is. While formulaic as most series are, the predictability is based upon tiny little breadcrumbs that are sprinkled over a few seasons, rather than in the previous episode. This series just gets better and better after each episode, and I love how the women are all empowered and strong without losing any femininity. The show has a conscious that other similar shows lack, which is likely why Burn Notice was so successful when it ran on the USA network. Lots of action, adventure, and things that go boom!
... View MoreEverybody knows that Burn Notice was a legend. All I can say is that i love everything about it and i'm really sorry that ended at the 8th season. I think there are a lot like me, that wished at least a continuation or a movie. It was spectacular and brilliant and smart and mysterious everything at Burn Notice. I hope that, maybe, in the future the scenarist will think seriously doing a continuation with Jeffrey and Gabrielle and Bruce. They are a great team in Burn Notice. I guess they can be elected in the future projects without any regrets or hesitations. They are the best actors. They are emotionals and mysterious and tough and really great actors. So, I hope i will see them, of course, together in a movie or in a TV series.
... View MoreI started out being unsure but after a few episodes it was good.The mixture of comedy moments when they perform some miracle revenge act on a drug dealer or bad character made it refreshing. This meant you didn't have to take it all too seriously.I found the plot involving Anson Fullerton added some great twists, I won't spoil them for future viewers.Sadly the latest season is driving me insane, mainly with Michael's Mum. We keep seeing her crying and moaning about Michael claiming she want's to know who he is dealing with.Maddy's obsession with her Grandson is nauseous and basically it ruins almost every episode. She claims she will deal with matters but she just keeps running off at the mouth and then apologising.Seriously the writers need to give her a back seat role similar to the one she had in previous seasons. Just bring her in when dinner needs making and leave her out of the main plot.
