It's telling that your list of cast photos doesn't include the Black actors in this film. They barely counted, and that's inexcusable on more than one count.

I can't fault this production for setting the scene, doing it's research and doe overall strong writing, but somehow Cohen just doesn't cut it for me as a spy who SHOULD NOT stand out in a crowd. He's head and sometimes shoulders above everyone and dressed to the nines, which to me is not an edgy spy but one who is saying watch me being one. I also feel the pace needs to create more tension than just staging meetings between characters. In other words, the mood is Netflix, not real life.

Worth streaming: There's good chemistry between the two leads, but time will tell if you're into the typically flawed, stoic male cop and the spunky female cop with an infectious passion for foiling hackers. I really enjoyed the pace of the episodes, the interaction between the four cyber team characters and Belgian flair (ie. it's not polished to death with beautiful people, palm trees or shots of Manhattan). A second season is coming soon.
