Who Is Erin Carter?

As I stated in the description, this show is very difficult to review. I gave it six stars because it's worth more than 5. This is one of those shows that some will like and others won't. Hollywood has already gotten me accustomed to tiny little women beating up everybody after getting slammed around and then knocking them out. Unrealistic, yes, but par for the course for the last 20 years or so. For me though, the story started out a little too slow for my taste. It wasn't until halfway through the fourth episode that it finally got interesting, which is why I rated it so low. It's a loooooong slow buildup to the finale, which is rather anti climactic. Not as bad as the Game of Thrones finale, but pretty danged close. I'll watch a second season if they film one, just to see where they take 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.

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.

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!

... don't know-understand what some reviewers are expecting (has Netflix-bias-maybe)... Who Is Erin Carter? Is one of the better Euro action thrillers Netflix is offering recently... through all its seven well-acted-produced episodes series remains enjoyable viewing

... all actors are good, yet the one you look for continually is Indica Watson... only twelve years old at filming, she's terrific in this series... acting since age five, it's for sure that she is to continue becoming one of the more well known-recognized faces of young European actors-models

... could be a second season for this series might come about, storylines-are-present, sure hope it does.. the action-drama-genre can always use another worth watching... especially on Netflix productions being they're not always realized the best, and why some viewers downgrade many of their offerings not deserving it.
