Hand Of God - TV Series

Review: Hand Of God. Team up the Almighty with Ron Perlman and you’ve got a winning combo on your hands! Ron Perlman plays the role of Judge Pernell Harris (AKA: Judge Maximus – better known in the court room for his strict judgements). Judge Harris is corrupt, adulterous, and involved in quite a number of shady deals.

When his son goes into a coma after an attempted suicide, his life is brought back on track with the help of God, and proclaims himself as the modern day Solomon.

The pilot was compelling right from the start, and you begin to wonder if Judge Harris is going insane, or really does have a calling of God in his life.

Hand Of God has a good line-up of supporting cast such as Dana Delany (as his wife, Crystal), Garret Dillahunt (a converted criminal and Harris’ “enlisted” hit-man KD), Julian Morris (the equally corrupt Rev. Paul Curtis), and Elizabeth McLaughlin (Alicia – Rev Curtis’ sulty seductress).

Right up to the end of the pilot episode, you will be hooked. A great TV series and I hope that there will be more of this show to come.

Verdict: There’s a new judge in town!

My Rating: 8 out of 10.
