Pilot: Frank Darabont tips his hat at old detective movies where we don’t know who the murderer is until the very last minute. And Jeff Goldblum excels in the role of the “eccentric" Raines. I’m intrigued to see the coming episodes. Season one carries on with a pleasant and relaxed tempo. Better with every episode and the solution to cases isn’t usually terribly predictable. Raines visions make every case a little more special. I should mention the cute scene where Raines demands the photo of the woman whose head the murderer removed using a shotgun, because that’s how he sees women - headless. Or that sweet case where the murderer becomes the victim for a while and both of his hallucinations (the murderer and the murdered) fight against each other. It’s sad that the guys at NBC buried this series when it was panning out so excellently. (2008.02.14)
