The Children Audience Reviews

Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
Bill Davis 9-year-old Emma has been found dead in her back yard, and the series flashes back to the troubled relationships in the broken households where their children are not always welcome. Emma becomes unwelcome in her father's house because she's not trusted around the new baby. Jack, a surly 14-year-old, is not wanted in his mother's house because he gets into trouble and cramps her social life. And Jack becomes a problem in his father's house because he is not trusted around Emma, the daughter of the father's new girlfriend. It is an excruciating dilemma but the drama falls apart when multiple scenarios of Emma being killed are offered. It is a waste of time that would have been better spent giving more about the aftermath of this tragedy, but instead the answer of "whodunnit" is given, not very effectively, and the program abruptly ends.
