Exoticalot People are voting emotionally.

Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Winifred The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

tlwhitecdn Like just about every British program I watch this was outstanding. Love the characters and the scripts. Sad it's not more than 6 series.

margaretgi I have read a few of the books but not the ones that were the basis of the TV series. This is a good TV series. I had seen episodes over the years on my PBS station but was happy to watch it again through steaming. My other half, who likes fast paced American mysteries and thinks UK mysteries too slow, enjoyed these episodes. We were both sad that the series wasn't continued. I like Alan's ongoing relationship with his family and the changes in the other team member's relationships over time. One of the most interesting dynamics was the relationship between Helen and Annie that changes completely in the series. Alan does seem to get angry a lot and seem calmer in the books I have read. Highly recommended.

forensictrauma Having read the other reviews here I was quite surprised about the negative ones, and the "too predictable" complaints. I find the cast to be really enjoyable to watch, and the stories are interesting and well written. Sure the chief is a little glum here and there, but overall he seems like a relatively happy fellow, even with the reasonable hope of a love interest. There is a minimum of forensic or medical nonsense that makes it hard for someone who knows a little bit about such things to watch without squirming. The interaction with the new DI in the most recent season is fun, and the character actors are very familiar to those of use who watch a lot of BBC. So for open minded viewers my recommendation is to not be put off by the negative comments.

Oneillmike I have seen the last 4 episodes and have been greatly disappointed. This is a good cast but I have not been entertained. DCI Banks is wandering around with the longest of long faces in a mid life crisis unsure whether he really even knows what he is doing anymore. Caroline Catz is acting like a 15 year old in her first day at a new school. This part of the story, Catz's problems fitting in , was over laboured. The plot has moved very slowly and unevenly. All very downbeat and depressing. But maybe that's just Yorkshire ? The action scenes were poorly done and in my opinion not really necessary in a police detective story if the plot is good. So nothing original on offer and not even on a par with the competition. Opportunity missed I would say.
