Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
jogreaves-22782 I really enjoyed this series but wondered about this part of the script in series 2. Laughed rather too long. Not sure if it was meant to be funny. There are some negative comments on here but I really found it entertaining.
Bene Cumb /refers to Season 1/I like British crime series - they are less "explosive" than those coming from the US, and do usually include some witty twists or turns, plus the use of distinct character actors not selected upon "cute" looks. Prey includes all above as well, but the story is not too plausible, and references to the motives were revealed too soon (I would have preferred to have longer doubts whether DC Farrow was guilty or not, and in what), and the very ending could have included some upside-down solution...Nevertheless, the events are catchy to follow, and John Simm as DC Marcus Farrow and Rosie Cavaliero as DS Susan Reinhart, first of all, give splendid performances. "Only" 7 points from me, since I regard e.g. Line of Duty, Luther meatier and more seamless.
zotwot I only recently caught up with Prey which starred the excellent John Simm. It was a three part series which was a whodunnit drama with a twist. As he is charged with the murder of his wife and child Farrow, who is a detective himself, manages to escape and then goes to investigate the case whilst being on the run from the police at the same time.The mystery was quite clever because it seemed like it was really complicated but in the end turned out to be really simple. The twist of being on the run at the same time was great and there was some really clever scenes where Farrow escaped in some excellent ways. It had fantastic characterisation and although John Simm is excellent in every role he plays I really thought this was one of the best. A great drama and it is nice to see ITV being able to now compete with the BBC with high-quality dramas.
BasicLogic stupid screenplay with lot of unforgiven holes big enough to drive through a semi container truck! very highly unlikely scenarios and plots with illogical twists, so conveniently arranged for the development of the storyline. stupid female detective captain, stupid police organization, so easily to condemn a brother detective of their own. guy went to his ex-wife's home at night without calling first was against normal behavior any normal divorced husband would do, albeit a police detective. survived kid so readily to believe his father killed his mother, and his kid brother was killed in the same house while he was just spared? so where he hid himself in the small house? if the killer already targeted the ex-wife's family, he should have known there were 3 persons in the house, would he just killed two and left? the reason to kill this stupid cop's family was even shady without any explanation. did this guy hold some important, critical, dangerous information that might endanger the crime boss? if so, what was it? if the kids and other people in this stupid series already used iPhones, how could it possible that their desktops were still equipped with the obsolete floppy disk device and even the police still using the floppy disks? and if those disks held the important and deadly evidence and secret that would convict the accused, how could he brought them to his ex-wife's home. where was this stupid detective's actually lived? did he had his own living quarter? when he was transported to the prison, the other criminal just attacked him so easily with a ball pen with free hands without cuffs? after he ran away from the accident scene, he went to his ex-wife's new boy friend who's also a colleague and partner, he kicked open the front door, it should have seriously damaged the door and the door frame, so why his partner didn't find out there might be an intruder in his home and he was a detective! he won't detect his front door was heavily damaged? and still could use his key to open the damaged front door? on and on, this stupid mini-series played on and treated the viewers like morons. that' absolutely unacceptable, dude.
