Review of Jo

Jo (2013)
3/10
Detectives in Paris, The 51st State of America
20 May 2013
We were excited to see Jean Remo cast for this role as we are fans of many of his other works but were sadly disappointed when we sat down to watch. The story was good and the acting carried it but the American accents clashed terribly with the Parisian setting. A major production error considering the lengths they had gone to in their choice of locations and sets.

The flawed detective is a staple of the crime/detective genre but the unique element here was lost as Paris dissolved into another another tepid formulaic drama with a plot that lumped between scenes with limited development.

Sadly we won't be watching next week.
