A cop is saved from death but brought into a supernatural police department.
A fair movie. It has some fairly amusing moments but is overall an engaging bubblegum movie.

A new warfare technology is developed, but catches a former-military police officer in the crossfire of its activities.
It had hope, but it ended so badly.

A cop from an authoritarian future is caught up in a daring time-travel jail-break, to become stranded in present-day Vancouver Canada.
Overall this is adequate, but with several plot points and character traits which are difficult to believe. The biggest problem I have is the various brushes against citizen-terrorism apologetics. My takeaway is that this show is "safe", with some edginess fabricated for the kids.

Something about a rape-murder and police that care a bunch about stuff and things.
This is just an extended tv episode, and a bad one at that.

A detective is haunted with hallucinations that include his dead partner, who was killed under mysterious circumstances.
I think some would find this movie slow and boring, and I did at first, but it very quickly revealed a depth and character that I haven't seen in any television show before and I doubt I will again.
This isn't a classic cop-and-mystery show. All I can say is give this a good chance, at least until the end of the second episode.
TODO - Watch the special features, there's a lot.

A cop's early investigation into a police fund theft has him killed, leaving his framed hostage-negotiator partner to use the only tool he has available to find the real killer.
A really great movie with a unique topic. Recommended.
