For those who wonder, this is a remake of the Israeli series "False Flags" involving 5 Israelian who are accused of the kidnapping of the Iranian minister of Defense. As you can see, the original plot has a lot of political and social aspects. Despite a great cast (would have gone for a real Asian Brit instead of Kunal, there's plenty of great actors), the story struggle to take off... Mostly due to an uninspired screenplay and poorly (re)written story. Being fond of UK TV series, I can also tell right away that this series doesn't have the usual British composure and atmosphere, and I could tell right away that this is a US show. All in all, this isn't atrocious, but there's probably something better to watch out there. And if you're interested in the storyline, it'd be better to just watch False flags.
