Go in cold, and you're likely to emerge with your blood boiling. This has to be seen to be believed.

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.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Stuck with it for 4 episodes. Roth is fine, obviously. The writing and story telling (direction) ruins it. The worst imaginable crime is committed in the first episode and..... nobody seems to be all that bothered. The perpetrators are shown to be slapstick comedy villans; utterly ridiculous and out of place. Roth, and daughter drink gallons of booze and are miraculously non intoxicated. Police chiefs offer zero protection to police family who suffered murderous loss and other child goes missing. Oil co evil protaganist again is comedy zany villain right out of Addams family. Enough is enough. Given up. Now for Billions instead.

After 2-3 episodes, I'd have rated this maybe 7.5 stars, but after slogging through the whole series, I think 5 is pushing it.Very frustrating to sit through the very long pauses used as filler. This probably could have been an OK 5-episode show if they trimmed out the useless pauses and irrelevant scenes. This guy is supposed to be on the wagon, yet way too much time is spent on each episode showing whiskey glasses being poured and filled as he uses every possible excuse to booze it up (and encouraged by his wife, if you can believe that). I spent a lot of time on the last episodes with my hand on the remote, and eventually fast forwarded through much of the useless and pointless nonsense in the later episodes.The entire ninth episode is a long, boring look back at history supposed explaining why he's what he is, something that could have easily been done with a 5-10 minute "flashback", but instead wasting an hour of your time if you can manage to sit through it.The story itself is pretty flawed and simplistic, but I could have tolerated this if the production itself was good. Lovely scenery, but geez, get on with the story and quit showing us 30 second scenes of someone sitting there supposedly contemplating something deep or guzzling down each of several glasses of whiskey in real time...we got it in the first few seconds, no need to drag it out

Tin Star was worth for the magnificent scenery. What spoiled it was the script. The first episode was entertaining. From then on, what kept me watching were the inconsistencies in the plot and my need for self-flagellation. The main characters become unbearable as reason and sound judgment gradually loosen up. Inconsistencies abound. A town tolerates an inept police chief that doubles as the village drunk and mostly doesn't respond to calls. The family threatened by powerful forces and with a member already murdered, he leaves his wife and child unprotected in a cabin in the woods, away from town. You have the wife who is supposed to be the lucid one in the family but allows the teenage daughter to roam around at odd hours and places. Quentin Tarentino has been able to extract great acting from Tim Roth, but the highlight of his performance in Tin Star is the number of shots he downs. If you don't have anything better to do with your life for ten hours, leave your brain on the coffee table and watch this absurdity.

I love Tim Roth. I love crime dramas. I love the mountains. That being said, this is the single worst show I have ever seen. Now, I don't watch CSI or NCIS or any of those kinds of show, so maybe those are worse, but I really doubt it. I am not a troll. Let me explain why this is so bad.1) Cartoon character villains. Normal enough in many shows. 2) Characters that have strange motivations that really make little or no sense. 3) Horrible dialogue. Some of the lines make no sense what so ever. One line in particular stood out to me as being absolutely nonsensical. Two guys are talking about a robbery. The one guy says something to the effect of We have to postpone the robbery because we will be looking at "4 to life." No where can your possible outcome for a crime be 4 to life. That is asinine. 4) A completely incoherent plot. Killers who act like a sociopath one moment, or episode, and who act like they are filled with emotion in others. Jumps of logic that make no sense. Characters who come to conclusions based on small bits of information and make wild jumps to judgement and action based on those small bits. 5)The main character (Tim Roth) is supposed to be this total bad ass. But why? it isn't shown very well, if at all. And Tom Roth is not an imposing figure by any stretch. He doesn't even act crazy or anything either to indicate a "loose canon". 6) The wife, who is hurt in a brutal way seems fine to walk around after a few days of getting out of a coma, like nothing ever happened. 7) The wife seems to go back and forth without any reason of how to deal with certain issues in no logical way. 8) Christina Hendricks (Mad men) has some of the worst acting I have seen in a long time. I think she is very talented, but not in this. I could go on. But I won't. It is a horrible TV show. Horrible anything. I am shocked it was made, and I was shocked Tim Roth had anything to do with it. Avoid.
