Yeah, most critics loved the French film and were critical of the second one...I liked them both! La Femme Nikita starts out very similar to Fonda's film (I think the folks behind LFN own the rights to the movie...in fact, I'm sure of it cause they used Fonda's stunt double to escape down the trash shoot in the kitchen and also some other footage from the film in the pilot). Peta did a lot of her own stunts however...she's very athletic (and sexy, beautiful, stunning...you get my drift). Roy Dupuis as Michael is much better than the actor who played Fonda's trainer in Section. The strength of the show lies in the characters and their relationships...Nikita and Michael rank among the best couples ever on TV imo! If you liked the movie, I think you'd love the show...so many twists and turns that you simply can't see coming! Great action...Michael is one badass mf...and by the end of year one, so is Nikita!
