A gritty and wild tale of survival at all cost featuring a brilliantly portrayed dominant female actress.
lordhumungus51331 October 2011
I absolutely fell in love with this web series from the moment I first saw a brief clip of it on the actual website. I was drawn to the action elements and the sheer beauty of the lead actress and completely blown away by the amazingly creative displays of cinematography.

In my opinion this is going to be something that appeals to many audiences. There is plenty of intense action and intrigue for thrill seekers, in depth character studies, romance, witty humor,one of a kind acting{The characters were believable and it was refreshing to see such a no-nonsense approach to the roles} and above all amazing artistic direction.

The lead character Kylie who is played by Elitsa Bako...who is without out a doubt one of the most beautiful creations to ever grace our plane of existence...I mean it folks, I've seen all kinds of beautiful women, both on screen and off and she's simply the most beautiful, the most stunning, the most adorable woman I have ever seen in my entire life. By the third episode of this, I am sure most of you will agree and find yourself head over heels or at the very least ,genuinely smitten.

Overall I found this to be is extremely well paced, starkly and beautifully shot, and features some of the best acting and writing in quite sometime. I enjoyed being able to view this , and I honestly hope that this gets developed further. I would love for nothing more than to see this as a vehicle to further the increasing need and demand for strong female leads to be portrayed on screen.

Plot holes I could drive a truck through

Warning: Spoilers
I watched several episodes of this web series and viewers will need a chiropractor for all the head-shaking it will induce. These are spoilers but the project is so bad I wanted to save you some time and brain cells.

The biggest plot hole in season 1 has to be the fact that Kylie is hired because she's a pickpocket; a criminal with fast fingers and the ability to divert attention like a magician. Except the heist she's hired for involves stealing a bag full of money resting at the feet of a naked man who is bound and gagged. So Ray Charles could have pulled off this robbery.

When Kylie escapes from one blood-soaked scene at her apartment, she exits in panties and a jacket with no top or bra. She stumbles through city streets and heads to a hotel. Because, you know, she wants to hide and lay low. And half-naked is the way to do that. Seeing as it was her apartment, didn't she have time to grab some pants and a shirt before running out? People in situations like this in other film and TV projects seem to have the time. Like many scenes in this web series it appears that the director has just convinced a lot of naive actresses (and one guy) to go naked. I feel for them.

Intense, Original and Packed with Nudity. What more can you ask?
nikkitan12 December 2012
I watched this series based on a friend's recommendation. I had never seen a web-series before, and now I don't know why. To me this was better entertainment than most of what is on television, and because the episodes are shorter, not so much of a commitment (though once I started watching, I kept watching everything they have out so far so I may as well have watched a feature film).

What really grabbed me about the originality of this show was how much nudity there is in it, but I never felt "dirty" for watching it. It was like the nudity was just a natural part of the show and it made the scenes more intense (especially in what could possibly be the most EPIC death scene ever put on film in their first season finale, followed by an opening to the next season that made even my stomach turn but I couldn't stop watching).

My only gripe is that the story takes a little time to get going, but trust me, if you stick it out, it will be well worth it. Everything pays off and I actually think I'm going to go back and watch the first few episodes again to see how they did stuff that comes back later in a big way.
