    Absolutely the worst movie.

    Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

    It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

    The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

    I read these reviews a few days ago but today, they went right out of my head when I chose to add this series to my Amazon Prime viewing. The acting was great but the story became more and more convoluted and confusing as each possible answer to the mystery was rejected. It is not a spoiler to tell you that, unless they have another season int he works (unlikely as this series is from 2014) you will be left hanging. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME.

    "Amber" pulls it from under our feet and shocks us because it doesn't give easy answers, and it's relentless. As I read previous entries here, I sense a wave of disappointment after disappointment because we always want to know everything, expect clean, tidy resolutions. There are tons of TV shows delivering that already. "Amber" takes some daring steps and ruffles a few feathers.The story might not be anything new. A young teen disappears, and the clues are pointing to an early discovery. After all, there's no real big mystery when we start. Friends are interrogated, technology seems to be providing information very quickly, but luck soon interferes. Then the trail grows cold, and lives are permanently altered.Set in Ireland, things could look a bit different, but they are similar to anything you'd expect in other parts of the world, and by the end of the series, we can see that "Amber" has grown into something more complex, and the mystery remains, maybe even more puzzling than ever. Through the four episodes, we met plenty of possible suspects, and this what irks many. Some are cleared, other remain question marks. It looks like the writers have done this intentionally, so there shouldn't be that much ill will for the resolution. Not sure if this is the true conclusion of the series, or if we will be treated to another season. It is set up to go either way. Sometimes we don't get all the answers, but sometimes we get writing that challenges us and takes into a powerful ride.

    Amber is an Irish crime drama series created by Rob Cawley and Paul Duane and directed by Thaddeus O'Sullivan. The series stars Eva Birthistle and David Murray as parents of a young teenage girl who goes missing,Each episode of 'Amber' focuses on the perspective of one individual connected to the case, including Amber's family, friends, and complete strangers who become drawn into the quest. I was glued to this TV Show from start to finish. It was filmed over a 2 month period. It is a powerful Irish Drama with fine Cinematography and Editing. It keeps you hooked until you figure out at the very end - what happened to Amber…… but then the ending is slightly flawed leaving an audience saying "What the F***"?

    Its really good except when writers decided to justify the worst ending ever. they should apologize to everyone. This should go down as lessoned learned and endings you do not f*ck with. Yes I can imagine there is no closer when someone goes missing!!! Doesn't mean you make that your ending! Is that supposed to be symbolic? There is no closer?Not cool. 5 hours of good work and a bs ending. It would have made sense if the episodes were bad..but they weren't, and I expected a consistent ending. The ending is a cop-out to giving closer to ones who take the time to view your art. Shame on you! Number one rule, give an audience closer! No exceptions to the the subject matter. Not cool. period.
