A homeless man called John Reese (Jim Caviezel) is traveling in the subway when a group of punks attack him, but he subdues the attackers. He goes to the precinct and a stranger called Harold Finch (Michael Emerson) bails him out. Soon Reese learns that the stranger is a billionaire that has invented a device called "The Machine" capable to predict any attack like the September 11th to the government. The Machine also predicts people in danger but the government has disregarded the minor crimes. Finch left a back-door in the device to provide the Social Security Number of the possible victim and hires Reese, who was a former operative agent that misses his girlfriend Jessica Arndt (Susan Misner) that died, to investigate and help the persons and prevent the crime. His first name to investigate is the Assistant D. A. Diane Hanson (Natalie Zea) that is working in the case of a drug dealer. Will Reese succeed and overcome his depression?
"Person of Interest - Pilot" is a TV series with a promising premise and high IMDb Rating. The first episode is highly intriguing with The Machine capable to predict a crime but with minor information: only the Social Security number and no other clue. In the first episode, the good guys are misled by the information. My vote is eight.
Title (Brazil): "Pilot"
