Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good
Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.
Gary The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
bundytea Stumbled upon this while recovering from a broken ankle and unable to go out anywhere. Day time television is terrible - and with no internet or alternative I was saved by ABC putting on something that doesn't assume you are stupid in the day time. This series totally got me in.Intelligent - a bit spooky and fast moving. I need to know if there is another series coming as I want to know what happens to Rash and Stefan in their new apartment and what exactly that pharmaceutical company is up to!
adrian.chell Two young investigators, one an ambitious junior police officer, the other an unconventional fraud investigator, team up to solve cases that - by miraculous coincidence - always seem to straddle both their areas of responsibility.As a one-off, the coincidence might be acceptable, but the entire series uses the same conceit, so it becomes entirely unconvincing. Equally unconvincing is that either of the heroes wouldn't be fired or prosecuted, or both, for their antics in solving the crimes.The series is aiming for the comedy-drama approach, but every gag is beaten to death by repetition: the heroes are hugely competitive, so are forever challenging one another to races or other contests; one wants to date the other's sister and the brother doesn't approve; one keeps getting the other into trouble of both the perilous and job-risking variety, but somehow they both survive; they barely get on, but are trying to buy a flat together, and so on.Only the villains make the programme worth watching at all, and some of them are rubbish (I'm looking at you flat cap-wearing hit-man).The chemistry between the leads is non-existent, the plots make too much use of coincidence and the decent actors in the supporting cast are wasted by being portrayed as two-dimensional.Watch something else.
daughteroflily I was excited to see a new British Crime Drama advertised on Netflix. The first episode was average and it's been downhill ever since. The writing is atrocious. The acting is very poor. The pathetic dialogue between the two main stars is painful to watch. Usually British dramas have a note of plausibility to them...not so with New Bloods. They're trying for drama with a note of humour and neither is working.
hebehalstead I cannot understand the negative comments. Love it. Love the plot, the characters, utterly in love with both of them. It really is just Top quality drama. Also hilarious though. Love the view it gives you of London life. LOVE THE TITLE MUSIC. Such an interesting concept, real new take on the classic police drama concept. The bromance is real and you will completely invest in the characters. Beautifullt shows a very dark and real side to policing today, with companies and international fronts being used to mask very instinct driven crime. Not unnecessary violence or gore. Came to it quite late,now utterly heartbroken that the series is finished. praying for series 2!!!! Cannot suggest it enough.
