Cracked (2013)
Cracked is Cracked
There is only one word to describe this t.v. series and that word is "horrible". Where to start on what made for such a disappointing and horrible first episode? The actors? The script? The unrealistic role of the unit? The audio mixing? The fact that the writer and director wants us to believe that a cop that had a break down and saw three psychiatrists who is now fit for duty can "connect" with a delusional schizophrenic murderer?
I was really hoping that Cracked would be good in the same way that The Bridge was good. But five minutes into the show and seeing a doctor ordering a cop to handcuff the victim being detained by a delusional man who has a history of mental illness my hopes were dashed. Because no where in Canada or the U.S. would a police officer ever handcuff a victim. It's called unlawful detainment and in Canada it's a Charter violation and considering that the show takes place in Toronto the Charter would apply. The other issue is the handling of a person holding someone against their will would not be dealt with in such a "gentle manner".
On a scale of 1 - 10 with 1 being the lowest, I give this show a 0 because it was just that bad.
