Review of Vanished

Vanished (2006)
1/10
Another Half-Cooked Series
27 August 2007
Warning: Spoilers
This is one of those frustrating series that ends without resolving anything. There are no answers to ANY of the main questions on which the series is based.

Why do people do what they do? What is motivating them? What do they want to achieve, and do they even know what they want themselves? I'm not referring to the series. I'm talking about whoever wrote and made this rubbish.

We seem to meet the same elements in every "thriller" series these days; but unlikeable characters, sinister secret organizations, mysterious men in big cars chasing people around and killing them, and nearly every character with a hidden agenda, does not a story make.

This could have been a great story but for some reason the opportunity was wasted.

At the end of the final episode the woman is still on the run, and we never find out why she was kidnapped in the first place. If that isn't reason enough to avoid this series, you've obviously got too much time on your hands.

Ming-Na looks cool & sexy, though.
