La Femme Nikita (1997–2001)
7/10
flawed and glitchy here and there but quite good overall ...

Ok, i'm more than a couple of decades too late doing it but i think i have to do this review:

we don't see action movies or tv series offering some deep emotional and beautiful romance uncontaminated with cheap commercialism everyday ... but this one has done a good job at that ... (even though the makers of this series did fall into that pit quite a number of times with at least one episode almost totally done for wardrobe showoff rather than good story ...)

the story's basis is really fine although its logic is highly erratic in many instances but the humanitarian message is so good and well put one can simply ignore the many shortcomings rampant all over ...

and that Nikita character / Pita Wilson supermodel actress ... WOW! what do we have here: an angel? a goddess? a brave queen-warrior with a heart of gold to die for as a self-sacrificing knight who believes in fighting for her in order to save humanity? or is she just an irresistible both-brain-and-flawless-beauty woman playing difficult roles professionally? i guess a combination of all that and more (for which i can't find proper words) is the better answer ... if it weren't for her exceptional beauty and near-perfect acting i wouldn't have binge-watched the entire 96 episodes almost non-stop as i'm not quite into action movies after all ... simply put, Pita 'Nikita' Wilson is PRICELESS! and that's why this series is well worth a keep in digital format or even DVD ...
