This was one of the least effective in a decade.

The recording quality of the hand held reporters cassette recorder, the contents of which wrapped up the entire Mod Squad case was 'studio quality' amazing!!! I see a minimum of sixty films a year. We saw the camera pan left, right, right, left, right, left then left again so continuously I became dizzy. One scene had our three protagonists in the front seat of a car plotting their next move. The direction in my opinion was experimental to the point of distraction. The police were called to the scene as backup for our hero who was then an escaped felon (or was he?). I found myself confused between the good and the bad cops and why a call to the police precinct, which had set up the criminal 'bust' finale, was so obligingly received and acted on so promptly. The young black actor had little to work on in his scripted characterisation. Long lingering shots of the female lead became dull. The clever young actor from the 'Other Sister' relied on the most basic of performance tricks such as shouting, to even be noticed. 'When was that film set?' my eighteen year old daughter asked me. The action was minimal the highlight being an old car crashing through a metal door. We had no idea what they'd done to land themselves in hot water to begin with so they could have been murderers (no sympathy there). Neither I nor the three people with me ranging from 18 to 85, could work out why the three young 'Mod Squad' members were recruited. The script jumped from point to point without ever clearly explaining the real direction of the plot or the characters. There were a number of points which were never explored fully in respect to the character development.

I was extremely disappointed with Mod Squad as a movie.
