‘Interceptor’ review: Netflix tortures subscribers yet again

season 4 is here.

Caroline Framke Chief TV CriticWatching the trailer for “First Kill,” it was tempting to assume that Netflix’s new teen show got lost on its way to The CW.

Schwab, who also wrote the first episode and produces the series, “First Kill” dutifully sets up its YA supernatural show bingo board.

It’s Elsa Pataky versus many nuclear missiles in “Interceptor,” a decent Netflix actioner that embraces its formula a little too much but effectively sells the “Fast Five” breakout star as the next action hero.
