I thought the main weakness, even more that the crappy dialogue, was the plotting, which was plain *awful*. In places it made no sense to an almost offensive degree. I like to feel that the writers are at least putting a minimum of effort into the story, rather than just slapping any old crap down on the page and hoping the audience has dozed off by that point. None of the characters ever actually said 'I'm doing this because the writer says I have to', but it got very close.
All in all, I'd much rather watch Deed, which is at least all-guns-blazing, heart-felt, foot-to-the-floor craptastic craziness. This was just weak and lazy.
I did admire the cast, though, who were sweating blood over some absolutely dire material.
