WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??
Myron Clemons A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
Marva-nova Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.
StreamingEagle I really enjoyed the one season of this show. Complex, entertaining characters form the foundation for a unique show. It is a shame that they only had one season because it is better than most things on TV.
monabona I've watched the series twice on Netflix and both times I found myself sobbing at the ending. Skarsgard plays a brooding Scandinavian detective, now working in London, who sees his partner shot to death and who, like his fellow detectives, can't rest till he finds her killer. Sounds rather cliche-ish, but be assured it is not.
lyninbyron As per reviews below by Joe & Judy..... A GREAT BIG DITTO to both! Everyone involved in the making of "River" are to be congratulated on the perfection of this miniseries. It engrossed me and I paid full attention to every detail and nuance, which is most unusual! With a lot of the tripe churned out these days, especially from America, I switch off and also never go to the cinema anymore. English dramas are so far ahead of the world, in every aspect and "River" sits proudly on top of the pile for me. A BIG Thank you to all involved XXX
Angie Hodson Thoroughly enjoyed this series,Stellan Skarsgård acting is superb. Im hoping there will be a second installment of this series. Cant fault it:)
