Did you mean how one man can sneak into the back seat of an officer's personal car in the middle of a guarded police station parking lot, pull a gun on the officer, and never get noticed?
Yeah, I noticed that too.
Like Prime Suspect the script was a little awkward in parts. Unlike Prime Suspect, POI doesn't have the likes of Maria Bello and Aiden Quinn to pull it off.

I'm thinking,like one poster said, Person Interest is good, but reminiscent of several movies in this vein of snooping cameras, plus Jason Bourne ;)
Enemy of the State meets Eagle Eye with Wanted and The Last Enemy (BBC mini-series) thrown in, starring The One or Jason Bourne.
I will definitely be watching and enjoying, so it's not a negative review at all. Jim Caviezel is definitely got the brooding super-hero vibe going, which is amazing so far. The production values are excellent, so worth watching.

There were many good aspects about the show, I must say there is one HUGE logical flaw in the show that killed it for me. I decided to not mention it so that others who enjoy the show can keep enjoying.

I waited so long to see this show and finally last night! It is true. The show had a slow start but it has tremendous potential. I like Mr. Finch already. But who wouldn't like Ben Linus? Loved him on LOST and I will love him on POI!

I really liked the show. I had not ever watched either actor before, so no preconceived notions about their acting. I like the fact Reese can take care of himself. And thank goodness, If I had wanted to watch comedy, I would watch those lame shows on NBC. I liked it just the way it was.

i think that it was a great premier, i am definitely hooked. love jim caviezel, watched all his movies and i think he adds a level of vulnerability and integrity to this seemingly cool and sleek government trained killer.
loved the way the cabby didn't give a damn that a guy on his back sit is preparing a gun, i think that was priceless.
as a whole i think it was a great intro and covered everything that needed to be covered, it set a very rogue Bourne kinda atmosphere and i think it will only gain momentum with each new ep.
can't wait until next week.

I was really looking forward to this show and I was not disappointed. Loved it! Great fight scenes, nice little twist, can't wait to see how they develop these characters.

My husband and I both found the show enjoyable and it kept our interest. Love the fight scenes. Loved both Micheal Emerson and Jim Caviezel [have always been a fan]. You can bet we will be watching.

I wasn't disappointed it was captivating and interesting. It was a great start and I'm looking forward to the next episode.
I was really captivated by this show. I didn't think I would be interested in it, even though I loved/hated Michael Emerson on Lost. He does play the creepy mysterious guy very well. I didn't expect such a cool, tough character from Jim Caviezel, but found him somewhat charming, and watching him fight was entrancing. It kind of reminds me of movies with The Rock. They have such smoothness and accuracy. In a moment, everyone is on the floor, incapacitated, while he stands there cool, calm, and collect, not a hair moved on his head. I will definitely watch this show in the future.
