Enjoyment: It's no "Children of Earth" by a long shot (the fact that it's twice as long doesn't help). But it's entertaining and moderately suspenseful. Although, it's too insistent on teasing and holding things back when there isn't anything worth holding back - the J.J. Abrams school of writing. B
