Fox's FASTLANE 1.1!!
|
I am – Hercules!!
Herc like the “Charlie’s Angels” movie! Man who make it make “Fastlane”! Herc find Bill Bellamy grating and talentless! Bill Bellamy in “Fastlane”! Herc smash!!
9 p.m. Wednesday. Fox.
Buckle up for a loud, silly joyride. The season's one true guilty pleasure, Fastlane is more enjoyable than most summer movies. Little substance, lots of style.
Sex, thugs and rock & roll fuel Fox's "Fastlane," a hyperactive action series that will have some people praising its artistry and others reaching for the remote to turn down the volume -- at the very least.
If one approaches this from the standpoint of it being essentially a slick 'n' sleek music video stretched out to 46 minutes, it turns out to be an agreeable orgy for the eyes and ears. … Of course, things like dialogue and plot development are really beside the point in "Fastlane." More than a little bit of either would be overkill.
"Fastlane," revs up a brash new environment, then fills it with a pair of pretty stock cop characters. … The premiere zooms but is badly acted and badly written. Van has no charisma, and Deaq, an African American, for some reason is not allowed to speak a grammatical sentence. Maybe it's just his undercover act.
I am – Hercules!!
