DVD Reviews of Painkiller Jane

DVD Review: Loken can actually act! Who new?
Summary: 5 Stars

I caught part of a show on Sci-Fi but never saw enough to form an opinion so I bought this set. Despite obvious budget challenges, this is a pretty darn good show. And yes, the lead actor can act! The sets are gritty enough but obviously Vancouver. I have only watched 7 episodes so far but find them highly enjoyable for what they are. The zombie one was a unique take on and old subject. Twisted for sure. There is a good imagination at work here and I for one am dissapointed this show never got a chance to grow a fan base.

DVD Review: interesting idea, boring show
Summary: 1 Stars

I was interested in the idea, but this show has to rank with the Nikita series as the most disappointing shows that we've bought. It was so bad we ended up throwing away the dvd's after watching a couple of shows (unfortunately, we'd waited too long to watch any of them to send it back). My wife and I both felt that the show as so bad that it didn't even rate an inch of shelf space.

DVD Review: pain killer Jane
Summary: 5 Stars

We loved watching pain killer Jane on T.V. So we were happy it came out on DVD.. It's a shame it's no longer on T.V., but at least we can watch it any time!! It was a great show..so sad they took it off the air!!

DVD Review: Hugely disappointing
Summary: 2 Stars

SciFi retooled a promising pilot/mini-series, recast it, and started from scratch: they blew it big time. Wooden acting, dull stories, and voice-overs from Loken that are horrible. The main 'threat' in the plot are people with unusual mental powers called Neuros, but she persists in pronouncing the work "knee-rows" and they never troubled themselves to fix it. The look and feel, production values are not bad, but the writing and acting are of poor quality. Save your money. Buy Dresden Files or Eureka or BSG to get some good stuff (rare though it may be) from the SciFi channel.

DVD Review: Painkiller Jane Review
Summary: 2 Stars

I hoped this would be an entertaining show. However, the plot and pace of the show was slow and unimaginative, the look of the show was grey and the acting never rose above average. I think it was appropriate to cancel this series after one season. (For comparison be aware that I like Day break, Heroes, Eureka, Both series of the Bionic woman, Angel, Babylon 5, Smallville and the original Star Trek - Painkiller Jane really is not in the same category as these shows). I regret buying the DVDs.
