"After being shot by his girlfriend and left for dead, a violent criminal is given a face transplant and forced to work undercover for the police. Violent criminal Gunter Vogler is a sociopath who hates everyone and everything. During a bloody jewelry store robbery he is shot by his accomplice and girlfriend Martine. He wakes up in hospital having received a face transplant - the face of a police officer he had killed earlier. The police tell him they saved his life and now he has to work for them and fight crime. With old friends becoming his new foes and enemies turning into allies, Gunter suffers an identity crisis that has him seeking revenge against the entire human race. Law enforcement thought that with Gunter in their ranks they were fighting fire with fire, but instead, Gunter is scorching the earth. He is a one man wrecking crew, a raging inferno carrying a police badge. He’s also a man on a mission to reunite with the woman he loves, Martine, who gave him the ultimate parting shot… a Bullet in the Face.”

To be brutally honest, I'd never heard of Bullet In The Face until I was sent a copy from the wonderful people at Beyond Home Entertainment. Therefore, I had no real expectations or any idea really what the show was about. After reading through a few reviews online about the series, it sounded like a great show to check out. Unfortunately, I was wrong!

It may just be that I don't enjoy this style of 'comedy', that's if you can even classify this as comedy, or the storyline was to 'out there', but I didn't enjoy this series at all. Luckily, it was only 6 twenty minute episodes - that was enough!

I'm actually quite interested to know why or how the show is labelled, 'A viciously funny comedy'. I mean, I've got quite a broad and sick sense of humour, but I didn't even let out a 'nose-laugh'!

I hate to give anything such a bad wrap, and compared to other reviews this one seems out of the norm, but this just wasn't my cup of tea. Take my advice or leave it, or check it out for yourself and make your own mind up. You never know, you might just find you'll like it!
