I don't write a lot of reviews, but I felt this one needed one. I finished the series... even after wanting to give up halfway through. Some scenes have incredible dialogue, and the story makes sense and seems halfway believable... then all of a sudden it's like a child wrote the dialogue and the story completely falls off track. I don't think I've ever been so confused at how incredible some episodes are and the acting is fantastic... then the next episode makes no sense and the acting goes down the drain with it. It's almost like the actors know it's childish so they just play along.

The action scenes are amazing. The acting has its ups and downs that flow with the writing. The soundtrack is debatably awful. I have to give it a straight 6 cause the great is just barely outweighing the cringe. Watch it if you're bored, I guess.

Very surprised by the negative reviews, that said I guess I can see how some of the artsy approach and the periodic Jason Bourn like camera work could annoy a few.

Listen, Luke Evan is unreal in this role, one of best performances of the year in my opinion. The story has a bit of Terrance Mallick like camera work every now and then which I appreciate the artistic effort. Binged 8 episodes so far, and went back and rewatched a few.

I love this concept! A new approach.. To conclude, it's a political, journalistic, military thriller with authentic South American scenes.

Luke Evan's doesn't get the acting support necessary by cast to make this Emmy award level. Would hope for a season 2 - only if they're committed to making it better.

They really tried making something good here The actors are good, story is half decent, but it could have been told much better. It's slow paced so the thrill is taken out of it, everything just feels like a drag, like you'd enjoy it better if you play the episodes at x2 speed. Every episode feels like it could be 20 minutes shorter because of how long some sequences and scenes are. I don't know if they're trying to build tension or suspense but it just ends up being dull. I'd say the concept is similar to terminal list, except more politics and it's a rescue mission not a revenge one. A military political thriller. It's just missing that edge of the seat feel. It sucks because the actors are doing a pretty good job, and this series could've been good but it has me literally begging for something, anything; it's like poking a sedated bear or going to the zoo and seeing a lion sleeping, it's capable of great action and awe but it's just lying there instead, like what a waste. Looking at the way the story is progressing, 5 episodes in, it's clearly building layers and getting interesting but the narration is so slow. There are scenes over a minute long were nothing substantial happens. Not every thriller needs shootouts or the like, but have some suspense and tension maybe. Just do something. Please.

This series is quite misleading the audience, which explains the bad reviews. At first the series looks like a normal CIA story about soldiers, personal issues soldiers and their loved ones have, and a specific incident which requires action. But the story turns out to be far more than that, in fact it is a bold criticism of the role the CIA is playing in international conflicts. Many bad reviews are complaining that the persons in this series are just not likeable. Well, they are exactly as likeable as the authors of this series wanted them to be. People who want to know exactly who the good & the bad guys are will be disappointed in Echo 3, this is more multilayered than that. The action scenes are on point, the gun fights are awesome, camera & picture are tasteful and beautiful, and the music is brilliant. The actors become quite likeable also. Are we the good ones? Not easy to answer, like in the real world. Top notch CIA action series for demanding TV watchers.

Echo 3 is a solid military/political thriller that is absolutely worth watching. It stars Luke Evans, Jessica Ann Collins and Michael Huisman. The story is about a women named Amber (Collins) who goes missing after being abducted around the Columbia-Venezuela border during a political war. Her brother (Evans) and husband (Huisman) are two special ops soldiers who take it upon themselves to go find her and bring her back home. In doing so they have to overcome one crisis after another. The series is beautiful shot and the production value is as good as anything you'll see on a tv show. This is a political war drama that will keep you entertained throughout the series.
