Quem é Erin Carter?

It is not as bad as I had read in the comments.

Obviously it's not the best series in the history of television, but I don't think it tries to be.

It's true that it has elements that are not very credible, but it's entertaining, and who expects a fictional series to be credible?

It is clarifying little by little the questions that it raises at the beginning and many scripts do that, so I don't think that is a defect, but a very common dramatic resource to maintain the interest.

I've watched it all the way through without any effort, while others with more fame I haven't made it past the second chapter, or the second season.

It's not one of those that makes you sad to see it end, but I think it fulfills its role of entertaining.

And that's why I rate it with a 6/10, because without being good it's not boring.

This started with a decent premise -- a mom/school teacher leading a pleasant, suburban life but hiding a dark and violent past. As the plot unfolded in the midst of cocktail parties and after-school activities, it reminded me a bit of a Harlan Coben mini-series. But after a few episodes, the level of gun play and martial arts fighting rose to video game levels. Some characters are impossible to kill, no matter how many bullets hit them; too many others are simply expendable. The first few episodes drew me in enough to make me finish watching this series, but overall it was ridiculous and watching it probably made me dumber. The beautiful scenery and charismatic cast didn't save it.

She's a badass, that's who she is!

I ignored this for a few days because I thought this was another dubbed Netflix series which seems to be flooding the place lately.

I'm glad I gave it a go though, it was good. Erin Carter gets caught up in a Spanish supermarket robbery. After a tussle with one of the perpetrators he recognises her as 'Kate'.

As the title suggests we then see who Erin Carter really is.

There's nothing groundbreaking here, we've seen other series with similar plots but this ran smoothly, was never really boring and kept the audience guessing.

It's seven episodes with a running time of around fifty minutes per episode.

A solid seven out of ten from me.

I had a suspicion this might be dreadful and after the first episode I hadn't been persuaded otherwise. I stuck with it and started to really enjoy it.

Episode four is where it really starts to get going and from there you're already invested.

Now, I'm not normally a huge fan of the running and shooting and jumping off stuff and fighting action films/series, but I do appreciate the effort that goes into them. I've seen Die Hard a couple of times, it was fun.

For me, this series was kind of like that. You need to sit back and enjoy the nonsense.

Clearly, any normal person getting kicked about several times a day would need a bit of recovery time. Did Bruce Willis ever need recovery time? I don't think so! So why would super badass mom, Erin Carter?!

My advice? Chill out, laugh at the ridiculousness, groan at the terrible dialogue, suspend your disbelief pretty much all the way through, and just enjoy it!

Oh, and can I say thank you to whoever decided to have the protagonist run around in sensible shoes and not four inch stilettos all the time? I mean, you want realism? There it is.

Anyway, I hope there's a second series. That's how much I enjoyed it!

The good thing about this mini-series is that there is a lot of action, good fighting scenes, a little suspense and mystery and overall good acting. The bad thing was the sometimes poorly written plot. By that I mean there were some "yeah right, what are the odds they know each other, or it's a very small world" moments. But even with those weak moments the show remained very entertaining. The fighting scenes were pretty brutal and well choreographed. Maybe not everybody's cup of tea but certainly mine. There are only seven episodes so it's one of those binge watching shows that you can easily finish in a couple days.
