Who Is Erin Carter Review

The finale of Who Is Erin Carter was okay although the story got ridiculous before all was said and done. Erin was shot, yet still managed to beat up a bunch of people and survive several firefights. Not to mention how quickly she was willing to forgive the person who shot her. Nevertheless, the ludicrousness of the story was clear well before the finale so that is something viewers have likely accepted by now.

The performances have been decent despite some of the scenes being so unrealistic. Although there were some good moments, the story only seemed to skim the surface in most episodes. Truthfully, Who Is Erin Carter wasn’t great although it was watchable. If viewers are willing to overlook many issues and just accept the story for what it is, they may enjoy what the show has to offer.

There really isn’t much that differentiates this from Netflix’s other action shows, especially those that have been released in the last few months. The finale was probably the most over-the-top episode of the season with so many eye-rolling moments. It scores a 5.5 out of 10. Recaps of Who Is Erin Carter can be found on Reel Mockery here.
