CSI is always an entertaining show, but the characters have become almost interchangeable.
In CSI: NY there's Mac (Gil), Stella (Catherine), Danny (Nick), the young tech, the dark-haired girl that's a local, etc, etc, etc.
It's basically just CSI: Vegas with new characters, plots that make less sense, and the NYC setting that's kind of NY, if you've never been there.
Like CSI: Miami the dialogue is terrible, the acting is sub-par with an excellent cast, and the stories seem forced.
It's a nice supplement to CSI: Vegas, but again imitation is nothing but flattery. Although most of the cases are not completely impossible, they're very unlikely and usually have massive plot holes, again, like CSI: Miami.

The movie has its interesting points, but the writers left a lot of bad gaps in the plot. Ben Keats is a character who is too laid back, has no spine, and is apparently not very intelligent. It becomes quite an unbelievable story given that he is supposed to be one of the best management people in the United States.
The pace of the movie is quite slow, the twists are not unexpected, and basically its a movie about someone who is a complete pushover playing opposite a great Christian Slater role. He's comparable to his role in Very Bad Things, only the supporting cast is not even comparable.
This movie really has no redeeming qualities, and I somewhat wish I could just have the two hours of my life back that I lost. It's not Bellows' fault, the character is just terribly written.
