TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Merolliv I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.

Stephanie There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

Janis One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

cliffmacdev I'm not sure which series you peeps were watching but I had to comment. I haven't reviewed much recently but this series forced a reversal.It's excellent. Exactly what I expect from a British series. None of the stupid slick production without substance of the American series but down to earth, with just enough medical drama to supplement the excellent characters. This is seriously good.I binged watched it and analyzed my mood before this review to eliminate emotional subjectivity. I seriously doubt a second series will be as good but I am waiting for it.

studioAT This series has attracted more attention due to the fact that its star (Jodie Whittaker) has been announced as the 13th incarnation of Doctor Who (the first women no less), but its important to judge it as a show on its own merits.Its certainly well written, and boasts a good performance from Whittaker. It's dark and moody, but that seems to reflect most BBC drama these days.I wouldn't say it was compulsive viewing, but it was intriguing enough.

Murray Morison Although any drama involves a suspension of disbelief, this one has too many holes to go to sea safely.Of course Jodie Whittaker is good as the nursing sister in a failing NHS hospital whose whistle blowing costs her her job. Indeed the acting is competent all round and the settings (Edinburgh) refreshing. But ... the plot is simply unbelievable.We are expected to think Jodie takes the identity of a doctor who has emigrated. She picks up a post at an Edinburgh A & E department. Somehow she does this with no bank account details or references. It is simply beyond credibility and the writers should be admonished for not even giving a nod to how she pulls this off. If you accept that, and her willingness to have sex in the bathroom of her consultant (a private house)on day two or three, then maybe the story line is captivating enough to see where it goes.Luckily Jodie achieved the Dr. Who post before this medical posting unravels.

tammyli-72153 The premise of the plot was what drew me in and it started out OK. However, what really bothered me was that her characters' level of competence was inconsistent. I gave it five stars because it would be enjoyable if you don't have a medical background or able to just let the poor job of the medical advisers slide. SPOILER In one scene she seems very knowledge, seeming to know what she's doing and then another she's looking how to recognize diabetes (basic nursing knowledge). She should have killed someone already with her incompetence. However, this is a fictional show but it's just so painful to watch some of the scenes.
