AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks

Greenes Please don't spend money on this.

AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

vintagegeek We enjoyed the story lines for awhile. But the show is so dark (literally and story) you strain to watch the screen. The characters play well together which provides much of the humor too. After Series 1 the change from 90 minutes per episode to 55 minutes. This was absolutely a plus.

fortean2 I've only recently watched all five series of Murphy's Law - series 1 started off well but soon became mediocre. Series 2 was better but still not brilliant. All that was to change with series 3 when it all became much darker, grittier and with far superior story lines and scripts. Don't get me wrong, series 1 and 2 are still worth watching, but they are very inferior to series 3, 4 and 5.James Nesbitt is utterly superb in the role of Murphy - he's totally believable and never lets the viewer down.Fantastic. If I was only marking series 3 to 5 then I'd give this a 10/10, but it's only fair to judge all five series so far, in which case I reluctantly knock off one mark, so it's 9/10 overall.Very highly recommended.And if you want to see James Nesbitt in another excellent series, do give 'Jekyll' a go. It too is fantastic.

Horrormoviefan-86 This is the best drama/crime television series thats on TV right now, well its taking break (or i hope so). Haven't seen the TV movie that was first made, but I really like the TV-series. It has everything a good TV-program needs: great actor in lead role, plots are nice and it also has great tunes in it. Unfortunately it hasn't made a lot of awards like it should have, but its worth to even golden globe If you ask me. Never watched really cold feet, but i heard he was pretty good on that too. In this he really goes from nice to cold undercover cop with a nice touch of humor now and then. Its on DVD so buy it! Its worth it!

jfcthejock Brilliant, what can I say! Fans of police or crime dramas will love this! Fans of Murphy's Law series one and two, will luv' this.'contains spoiler' However for fans of the first and second series, be prepared for a change! Murphy stays in one role throughout the six-part series to catch gang boss Dave Calard unlike it's predecessors where he played a number of different roles in one series.James Nesbitt excels as Thomas Murphy, a man distraught over a family bereavement who dosen't care about the risks of a case or role. By the way, there is a fourth series that is about in May 2007. Bring on a fifth series!
