Too much of everything

As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

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

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Utterly diabolical!!! I love John Hannah and Rupert Everett (hate what he's done to his face mind you) but honest to goodness, wooden acting, parts obviously dubbed with professional audio actors.. I could go on but as I've just wasted a few hours of my life in the vain hope of it getting half watchable, I wont!

Sorry I know you shouldn't do a review without seeing the whole show; but I turned on the TV and saw 10 minutes of this randomly.. When I saw there was a named actor, I assumed it would be at least a professional production.. but I was amazed; the acting is so wooden; utterly terrible.. I thought it must be a parody; so went to IMDb to confirm this was a subtle comedy; and it appears not.. but really surprised to see the positive ratings.. Honestly every one involved in this should really consider if they are in the right career..

Just turned the TV on, watched literally a few minutes of this and am absolutely stunned that Rupert Everett is in something so, so dreadful! The acting is absolutely appalling... I felt physically uncomfortable at the awkward physicality between the characters and their hammy yet wooden performances... I watched for another fifteen minutes in the hope I had caught it at a bad moment, but nope... What on earth happened?

If all you want is fast cars and guns then this is going to be above your head. There is lots of subtle intrigue and anticipation and the characters were like real people - not shallow props to some unconvincing graphic "cartoon". In real life people do not always wear their emotions on there sleeve and little boys can be quite quiet except when they spill the beans! I just had to keep watching it to find out what was going to happen next.Yes it is a bit slow moving as it sets the scene but that makes it all the more convincing and you are left with so many questions.I MUST see episode 2 to find out how it ends. I guess that makes it a pretty good movie!
