The Cape

Season premiere is premiering on CBS right now. This pilot episode is 2 hours long. So far its alright, its moving way too fast though. Sort of reminds me of Batman Begins with some of the quirkiness of Spiderman.

It's campy as hell. But I'm enjoying it, a lot.

How is the lead actor? Ive seen the preview a few times and everytime he opens his mouth in it I have a hard time buying him as a superhero.

Re: The Cape

He's eh.

The whole show is eh. But, at the same time, when I turn off my brain, it's a lot of fun.

Well I'll be checking it out later off the DVR. The villans looked decent, my only real issue based solely on the previews is the lead actor in it but maybe it will make up for it in other areas.

The lead is actually ok, he's trying to prove himself a lot with the emotional scenes, but he's doing a fine job. The show in general is really quirky, much more than i thought so. It'll find its crowd, i just think its bland

Re: The Cape

Not bad. Better than I expected.

Re: The Cape

I hope some of the bad guys have super powers.

Otherwise, I quite enjoyed the show, and I'll definitely check it out next Monday, as well.

Re: The Cape

It's on NBC, not CBS. It is also rerunning tomorrow in its normal time slot. I recorded it and I'll see if I like it. It looks like it might be a funny show if you don't take it seriously.

Re: The Cape

I liked it.
Didnt love it, but liked it.
Some little stuff bothered me about the story and fighting but nothing huge.

Felt very B movie ish, which is good since its a TV series.
I also know a cameraman so I get to see a taping of an upcoming episode!

Re: The Cape

Just judging from the commercials, this looks cheesy as hell. The idea in general is interesting, but it looks like the execution was bad.

Re: The Cape

Thought the acting was some of the worst I've ever seen. The main character is just awful. Keith David almost saves it, but the show just isn't good. I give it by mid-February before it's canceled.

And...Summer Glau doesn't hurt to put my TV eye on, either!

Yeah I agree, maybe with some better actors it might be better.

Keith David rocks, Soon as i found out he played the Arbiter in Halo 2....he was destined to be an amazing actor in my eye

Your thinking too hard. The show is sort of mindless. I found the acting to be like someone above mentioned, B-quality which is perfectly fine for its style. Its really campy.
