It is a series of criminal events, exemplified by the reality of 'Jett' Kowalski, who spent time in prison after several dangerous tasks. After a short while, Charlie Baudelaire tries to get Jet back into those operations as Jet agrees to do a last job through her former partner, Rufus 'Quinn' Quinton. Things change when Quinn is killed and Kowalski has no choice but to work on changing paths and collaborating with an evil Russian man.
The performances make the first episode, which is bloated by at least 15 minutes, fun to watch. But Gugino takes the cake; she's fun, charming and sexy while showing the weariness Jett has.
For those who can stomach it, JETT does do a lot of interesting things from a storytelling perspective. Plot and writing aside, the production of the series is incredible.
From the eclectic soundtrack to the solid cast that is as good from the single-scene performers to the recurring roles, Jett is as fun as it is enthralling.
Probably a little too derivative for its own good, but through five of its first nine episodes, it marks another fun-but-not-too-deep entry in Cinemax's stable of expanded B-movie genre pieces. And it's a great showcase for Gugino.
