Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Bea Swanson This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

Maleeha Vincent It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

fbctrona Murdoch Mysteries is a fantasy of bad acting, bad History, Anti-American sentiment. The writer seems to be angry at Christianity as every pastor and minister becomes a murderer, rapist, gambler, or fakes. Yannic is a Christian who shows great devotion, but is willing to deny his faith if need be. Every American is a bad guy. The acting, other than the chief constable is way overdone.

Myra Singletary I have absolutely fell in love with Murdock Mysteries/The Artful Detective. I am on season 7 and looking forward to 8 and 9 and hopefully ,many years to come! William Murdock is so true to his word and will follow his conscience no matter what. He has put his best friends behind bars because it was the proper thing to do. Constable George Crabtree is my hero. He comes off as a buffoon but can decipher a case almost as good as Murdock. My favorite episode to date is The Murdock Trap Season 6 April 15, 2013. I love the dynamics of William and Julia. They are proof that you can't help who you fall in love with. Julia is not the kind of woman you would expect William to date or marry.

edonyle I really love this program and watch it all the time. The only problem I have is with the hair do's. The women look like they have rats nests on their heads. Julia Ogden is a beautiful woman but her hair looks terrible most of the time. I do wish they would change the hairdresser. I know the women of the era did not have such untidy hair, it was beautifully coiffed. The episodes are so interesting and do keep to the era which is wonderful. The people or actors are all very professional so making a very good show. Everything about the show, except the hair of the women, is fantastic and I do love the costumes. Someone has taken great pains to keep to the era.

dagallop When pitching something against the likes of Poirot, you have to be good to even get noticed. This not only gets noticed but exceeds expectations significantly.When David Suchet formed the Poirot character he did an absolutely superb job of bringing Hercule Poirot to life, and then he maintained that level of excellence throughout the entire run of shows. Yannick Bisson has achieved the same greatness and produces a flawless rendition of Murdoch, again throughout the run (happily - so far! i.e. it isn't over yet). The supporting cast is far from 'supporting' in both shows. Where Hugh Fraser sustained the somewhat demur character of Captain Hastings, Thomas Craig has done so as the sometimes narrow minded Inspector Brackenreid. Although Poirot lacked female 'power houses' such as Helene Joy, it did have its fair share of 'second ladies'. Murdoch has an abundance of lady leads and plays the combination very well, although at times the convoluted plots lose a lot in trying to string intricate webs around the relationships associated with them. The Hurdoch-Ogden saga was so extrapolated that by the time they finally pulled it together it had spanned some 50 episodes! Ahem.. Although I personally dislike intensely the 'cliff hanger' approach, Murdoch only added this much later on. That isn't to say that I have seemingly gained an admiration for this tactic, but more so a disappointment that they feel it is needed to maintain the viewing figures! FYI: if the show is good, you don't need that! If you start doing it this late on (series 8 really), you yourself are starting to doubt the attraction to the show!In conclusion; this show is a must see for anyone that likes the crime drama, with the relationship angle firmly entrenched from time to time. Also those who like the period dramas, although some of the tenuous links to future inventions, inventors and events are just that; tenuous! It should also appeal to anyone that simply likes a 'comfortable show', it has neither bad language or unnecessary violence, reflects some of the ideologies that were forming at the time and above all is well acted. I would however, being of British extraction, like to point out that some of the Inspectors colloquialisms are actually considered 'foul language' when spoken in the Motherland!
