Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe plot here is similar to the events around Washington DC circa 2002 known as the beltway sniper. In that situation, a military veteran took on a younger illegal immigrant to assist in several sniper killings.
- GoofsThe male FBI agent makes a number of erroneous conclusions after the first shootings. Fist he says the targets were moving when shot. Since he did not witness the shootings either in person or via video playback, he had no way of knowing if they were moving or standing still when shot. In fact, the footage shows the second was standing still when shot.
Next, he presumes the sniper could only be US military. In fact, police agencies use trained snipers, so limiting the suspect to just the military would leave out any number of suspects. His conclusion a trained civilian shooter or hunter would leave brass was also likewise faulty.
Featured review
"Crossfire"
Another strong and well-written episode.
The thing that sets FBI apart from, say, SVU, is the different kinds of crimes that the NY field office agents can tackle. From child trafficking to bombings to ISIS and in "Crossfire" a sniper on a killing spree across New York City. Unlike SVU, where it's all crimes relating to sexual assault. The variety of cases is what's going to help FBI in the long run.
OA and Bell have to track down the shooter before he can kill again. Some very good acting from both Missy Peregrym and Zeeko Zaki. The final scenes are particularly well done and pack quite an emotional punch.
The agents - both clearly with personal issues that I'm sure we'll learn more about over the coming episodes - work well together. Zaki and Peregrym have good platonic chemistry: very good casting.
