Looks like every other third rate cat-and-mouse thriller and nothing like The Fugitive.

Hmmm.Looks ok.So far I've only watched one really impressive show on Quibi and that was The Stranger.It was so good it made me wish the episodes were longer.

Quibi shows: so far I enjoyed "The Stranger" a lot, "50 States of Fright" was OK, "Dummy" had an intriguing premise but was very underwhelming. Didn't check anything else.
As for this one, it looks... meh. The cinematography is particularly cheap looking (wtf is that explosion scene?) but I don't know, I may give it a chance. Quibi shows are short, there's not much new stuff around and Kiefer is always cool.

How much is Quibi? I can't pay for another service. It's just gotten out of control.
Do you guys enjoy the concept of Quibi? Shows are shown in 8 mins... which is basically a short.

For all the Glenn Howerton lovers here (and seems we have A LOT) - he's in 5 "episodes" of this , though we don't see him in the trailer.
We don't have a Quibi thread but I have some thoughts: Curious how many people actually watch these by episode here and there, or just find the time to watch all of these approx 100min "shows" in one sitting like normal civilized people. Seems all the narrative quibi projects have one director per, so they are movies just spoon fed to us in doses, broken down into a bite size bc our attention spans suck or to make about fourteen commuters happy? I don't buy it (literally I don't, how much does it cost?)

I don't know how much it costs in the US,but whatever it is,it's not worth it.The actual concept of Quibi is interesting.I guess they created it to capitalize on people's shortened attention spans,they probably thought 8-10 minute episodes would be more appealing than 50-60 minute ones.I'm not sure that's true,you don't really feel like you're getting your money's worth when an entire series only lasts an hour.
