Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined

Twilightfa Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.

TaryBiggBall It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

Roy Hart If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

bestfootie I love these British gritty dramas. This, Line of Duty, they're all so well written, so well acted. People need to get last the first episode or two to allow the character development to come into its own. The acting is incredible all round.

stephanie-sabrinskas I love this show! My new favourite British procedural.

Hannah Broadchurch Is Denfinetly The Best Drama I've Seen. It Is A Very Atmosheric Show, Which Is Conveyed By The Stunning Musical Score, And The Way The Actors Portray Their Roles As Well As The Brilliant Dialogue. The Cast Is Stellar And The Story Line Is Just So Gripping That You Cannot Be Torn Away From It. The Plot Develops Quite Slowly But It Is Worth Watching All The Way Through. The Locations & The Cinematic Element To The Show Also Gives It An Exellent Dynamic. Whilst Broadchurch Is A Dark Show There Are Also Momments Of Humour Too. Tennant & Colman Add Another Amazing Dynamic To The Show. Everthing About The Show Is Simply A Masterpeice, From The Acting, The Music, The Script, And The Beautiful Dorset Cliffs

timickle I watched this on Netflix over the course of three or four evenings, the first two seasons at least. After that I couldn't really go on. The acting is generally good, though David Tennant is a bit too Hamlet at times. The cinematography is excellent, but the direction is meandering, with too many shots of characters marching or running across the skyline or walking along the beach. The real problem is the writing. All suspense is gone by the middle of the first season, by which time we suspect that anyone could have dunnit, with the possible exception of the victim's mother, but a few more suspects come and go to keep things moving before the season ends. With a whimper. Season two descends into soap opera, with sub-plots sputtering off in all directions, and all of the season one suspects becoming suspects once again, before the villain of season one is revealed to be the villain of season two. By which point I just wanted it to be over. It was like watching a pantomime.
