Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined

Lumsdal Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

BoardChiri Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

megangmegan the first two seasons were OK - not great. By the third season I was already sick of the Nathan/Audrey relationship and it only got worse. By the end I was actively routing against them. A couple of good characters drag the whole show barely to the finish line. I hate myself for seeing it though to the end - time I'll never get back.

tapio_hietamaki Despite being based on a Stephen King book, 'Haven' is not a horror show. It's a supernatural crime drama and it's not scary in the least and not meant to be.It's about a woman detective solving crime in a small town, each episode having a new crime which is somehow connected to the inexplicable 'Troubles' going around town. Sounds ominous but actually it's just the townspeople gaining some magic power and each time everything is neatly resolved.The show is nice to watch but very bland. It doesn't really pull off the thriller style, it's not suspenseful enough. There rarely seems to be any real sense of danger, and the characters are not interesting enough for the audience to care about the inconsequential small-town drama.

rainy-designs Haven breathes new life into the fantasy genre with its unique blend of investigative/cop drama, mystery/suspense, and sometimes even a touch of horror. Being inspired by Stephen King novel, this TV show lives up to the expectations associated with that description. Each "problem of the week" is always new and unique, the show never falls into being predictable on that front. Lead actors are all average at the very least and some play into their roles excellently, most notably Emily Rose and Eric Balfour. The overall plot arc is not only amazingly unique it is also very engaging. The characters, their relationships, and their overall development are interesting and add to the story without overwhelming it. This show also does not lack for comic relief, banter between characters is quick witted and funny without trying too hard, the often sarcastic under tones to the dialogue in the show seems to come naturally to the cast. The filming in the show is nice, the scenes are beautiful (filmed in Nova Scotia) and there are almost always gorgeous panoramic shots of the unique coast line and brightly colored little town) in every episode. I knocked off a star for some poorly written dialogue (especially in seasons one and two) and some bad/cheesy acting from some of the minor characters (usually single episode characters and very minor background characters). If you enjoy mystery/suspense/thriller type TV shows like Lost, Orphan Black, X-Files, or Fringe or you like supernatural/fantasy TV shows like Hemlock Grove, Supernatural, or Buffy the Vampire Slayer you'll probably enjoy this. Some people who enjoy cop dramas might like this as well, though this definitely does lean toward the supernatural/fantasy end of things it does involve a lot of problem solving via examination of crime scene evidence etc.

loipoi99 Kill the Nathan love story or kill Nathan! Seriously I can't watch him drool all over Audrey. It is insulting pictrung their love as a big end of the world-who cares romance, when she is the ONLY person he can feel. Nathan would be in love with her even if she was a goat. More plot and less wanna be romance please. Kill the Nathan love story or kill Nathan! Seriously I can't watch him drool all over Audrey.
