Implied message of series = White people evil, Republicans bad
Actuality of series = Writing bad, Acting tolerable.
I really wanted this show to be enjoyable just because of what Forest Whitaker has accomplished in his storied acting career and brings to any project he takes on. Unfortunately this was not the case here. From the very beginning, this series draws strong racial and political boundaries, under the guise of a dramatic television project. It doesn't make the statement then lighten up, but doubles down on the rhetoric and ramps up on the hatred and vitriol.
For the viewers that can watch this and realize that it's just a television series (that was intended to entertain but falls short of that goal) it's mildly watchable and barely coherent. But for the easily triggered and politically radical viewers it is a blueprint to manipulated anger and even more racial and political division.

I was excited going into this one just because of Willis, Grillo and Dillon. 5 minutes into it I was shaking my head in disbelief. The script, storyline , cinematography and special effects of this movie are 1st year film school amateurish. Believe me when I say that I wanted this movie to be good and I was sadly let done.
