Steineded How sad is this?

Cleveronix A different way of telling a story

AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

Freeman This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

retrogames The DVD release of this superior made for TV BBC drama is a more than welcome addition to my collection. Great acting, gripping story, and wonderful direction all add up to one of the best BBC dramas in years.

shawshanksam-1 There's not much about this I didn't like.. The story was well thought out with a lot of twists and you don't realise who the killer is until right near the end.Congrats to newcomer Jamie Draven. Not only did he put in a brilliant performance, very convincing, he proved that he can play good and bad guys. (Check out the Jamie stare when he goes to visit Red)I believe we'll see a lot more of him in the future. For those who ask 'is his Manchester accent going to hinder him'.. I say this.. 'Has anyone questioned Sean Connery's accent. I don't think there's any role that Sean's played that he hasn't done in his Scottish accent.So I say.. no, I don't think it will hinder him. Gives him character. I wish him all the best and will be keeping an eye out in the future.As for the rest of the show, excellent performances were put in by Ken Stott and the rest of the team.And it was kinda surreal seeing Boris Starling who wrote it, on screen as a corpse.

Butterworthp This is great it has a great plot,a good pace and it makes you want to keep watching right to the end. All through the programme you are always wondering who the killer is and if the killer could be working among the investigation team. For once the acting is good especially by ken stott who is also excellent in the vice but it is shame they only make about one or two messiah thrillers a year.

Matt Bain This is the best drama I've seen in a very long time, if not ever. Firstly, Ken Stott is an absolutely fantastic actor, he perfected the part so you really believed he was DCI Red Metcalfe, struggling with all his secrets and dark past. In fact all the actors were excellent in their roles, particularly Neil Dudgeon, Frances Grey and of course, Jamie Draven. The novel in the first place was highly original with an amazingly complex plot, and this was successfully adapted into a high quality, brilliant directed screenplay. To sum up, this was an electrifying piece of ground-breaking drama, every moment communicating mesmerising details about this complex plot and it's highly believable characters. See it if u can, believe me.
