FBI (TV Series) Under Pressure (2022) User Reviews

Still good but be better

[adshiel · 7/10 · 15 February 2022]

7000lbs is enough to level blocks but she can run away a little and be OK. The pressure alone would kill her, certainly not stand up and have a chat. Be realistic, less explosive still wipes out the shelter. Or give more time for her to run further, and still dramatic.

Maggie Undercover

[shelbythuylinh · 8/10 · 2 February 2022]

She risks her job and her own life to prevent an anti-government group from overthrowing the US government and they are responsible for many bombings on it.

Her last undercover thing was really nearly ruined her career but at least she has OA, Tiff, and Stuart to have her back there while trying to stop bombings.

Change of emphasis

[evans-15475 · 6/10 · 6 October 2022]

I did a lot of fast forwarding in this episode so it went faster than Maggies suicide bomb disposal efforts but I did notice a change in emphasis the main baddie seemed a nice chap just sick of all the local crime indeed he tried to warn the bartender who the F. B. I. Were quite happy to throw under the bus.while Jubal was pacing around the office with his determined face on always just wanting to get the case solved in the allotted time.we were shown that their were consequences to his law enforcement obsession which I don't recall happening before surely the next logical step is for one of the minor cast members to be done for murder after accidentally killing an innocent member of the public.

Lazy scripting surprised me

[insideout098 · 5/10 · 8 February 2022]

This is the only FBI episode where nothing makes any sense whatsoever. Maggie goes undercover at a bar two weeks before the owners of said bar plan to wipe out an entire city block in Manhattan. Think they might be the slightest bit suspicious? Then OA, a Middle Eastern guy waltzes in for a chat and protection and nobody thinks twice about it. And don't get me started on the Bureau surveillance truck parked outside the establishment with construction vehicle stickers but no construction anywhere in sight for two weeks. What the terrorists bang on the door to the truck, nobody answers and that's the end of it? Finally, Maggie decides to take a 7000 pound payload of explosives capable of taking out buildings down to the dock and runs for 3 seconds before it detonates and the explosion doesn't even knock down a nearby fence much less hurt Maggie. Somebody, or everybody, sleep walked through this episode. Surprising for such an otherwise great show.

Apparently this show only has the budget for one good explosion an episode

[dcreel-25114 · 3/10 · 5 February 2022]

First of all how dare they reference the OKC bombing and then follow it up with and explosion that might have only broken a few windows and didn't injure the FBI agent that was less than 50 yds away.

This is the second episode this season where the first explosion was impressive, but then a 2nd bombing which is implied to be as big or bigger than the first, can't even blow a lid off a metal dumpster.

The writing is so lazy, example they just arrested a guy for delivering a bomb as the are arresting him, he is clutching a duffel bag ( possibly another bomb), they get him to sit it down and arrest him, then FBI agent just walks over and unzips the bag, without a care in the world.

Come on

[rodneyhemingway-43321 · 3/10 · 3 February 2022]

She says the bomb is going to blow up half the city so she risks her life and the bomb goes off and it would of barely blown a block. At least use cgi so it looks like it would took after the city but they couldn't do that cause she was 30 feet away and still live. Really bad and I loved this series when it first started.

Usually like this show, but this on has big mistakes.

[lhutcherson1 · 4/10 · 31 March 2022]

I was OK with some of the liberties taken, but was extremely disappointed with the finale. The explosion of the truck was about 1/100th of what they portrayed it to be. It was an exceedingly CHEESY way to end the show for the sake of a little tension.

Boom goes the bomb and Boom goes the series

[andrewrye-06535 · 3/10 · 4 February 2022]

Lately this has been getting worse, tonight it bombed badly.

I used to enjoy the story lines, the action and fast paced story. Now it's lazy, badly thought out and sloppy.

I wish I had internet as fast as them, and the connects are just crazy stupid. They go to the trouble og getting Maggie to woek t the bar but bugging the back room doesn't occur? Then when it does it must be done at the worst possible time when she might get caught. Let's also park a conspicuous van outside in the same place so they get suspicious.

Now lest send in OA, an obvious middle eastern guy in to talk to maggie and hand around the bar obviously out of place and no one notices. A love interest is alluded to between Maggie and the Barman, why?

Now the bomb, the one that takes a heavy duty truck to cart it and can blow up a city block. A lot of trouble to go to kill homeless people (that was a ridiculous story contrivance). She manages to drive 6 city blocks in New York in 20 seconds in a truck that would take 5 minutes to get to 50mph. Then hey, don't drive into the water, just stop in the parking lot and run 50 feet. Yeah, that'll work. You are kidding me. The bomb makers should get their money back for such a pathetic explosion.

Its 3 for the public that stood around behind barriers around the truck who managed to get into the filming. Well done! They don't even try anymore.

Poor Writing

[sarahbecker-98857 · 4/10 · 2 February 2022]

The show needs better writers. The show must be written for 12 year old viewers. Every step of the show is so predictable and completely unbelievable.

very poor knowledge and or research into heavy duty pickup trucks

[edwardagnew · 4/10 · 3 February 2022]

The agent said to the effect: Only two types of trucks can carry that bomb.. A Ram 3500 or a Ford F350... Are they sure???

It appears the writers they not even research enough to notice that GMC/Chev also has a 3500. Which for the most part is the most popular such truck in North America

They also forgot to touch on Single Rear Wheel vs Double Rear Wheel, Big difference for weight carrying rating with the extra two wheels. (the bomb was in a DRW)

I owned a diesel GMC 3500 for more than a decade, pulling 14 to 16 thousand pound trailers, and as such do have some experience in these type of heavy duty "one ton" trucks.

Just another lack of attention to details.
