Karry Best movie of this year hands down!

Diagonaldi Very well executed

Marketic It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.

Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

jvmallow I am totally hooked. Can never watch fewer than two per evening.Now as to the flaws.First, Jewish themes. In the earlier episodes, when Reid meets Deborah Goren, people are speaking Yiddish, accurate for that period for Jewish immigrants. But in the episode where Bloom is in jail, the Jews speak Hebrew, and modern Hebrew at that. No way. First, religious Jews used Hebrew only for religious studies; for regular conversation they used Yiddish. Plus, the man speaking Hebrew uses the modern Israeli Hebrew pronunciation, which did not yet exist. Ditto when Reid tries to explain to them that he has had a connection with Goren's orphan home, saying "yatom", "orphan" in Hebrew . But that's modern Hebrew; the correct pronunciation at that time was "yosem".Another flaw: when Jackson visits the Obsidian clinic, he refers to a periodic table of the elements on the wall. But it's a modern table; many if not most of those elements had yet to be discovered.That being said, I reiterate that I love the series, dark as it tends to be. I am also glad that the two leading female characters are finally listed as stars.

cvasily Edge of the seat drama that is done very well. Kudos to the cast and crew for a job well done! Is there a possibility that they will create a season six? I do hope they continue with this series and add more seasons. It's worthy of creating further dialogue so we can see where it goes from the end of season 5.

mshavzin The first episode was all about the lack of women's rights, and the typical bad mean male aristocrats. I enjoyed it well enough, but after the next few episodes each illustrating a liberal talking point, from racism to homophobia, to communism, to lack of immigrant appreciation…I just gave up. I don't need that nonsense shoved at me. In the real world, its not bored wealthy people that commit crimes. Wealthy people are usually not all that bored, because they tend to be working, and successful families tend to bring up their children well. The only wealthy people I can think of that have miserable kids that turn into criminals are all in the entertainment industry…and still, they don't go around killing people, they just drive without licenses, and maybe buy drugs. The people who commit crimes are most often from racial minorities, and poor. Maybe the writers of this boring show should look at actual statistics.

Chappy Watched I watched this show after finishing Whitechapel and well because it's BBC.I liked the style and the dark, grit of this show but Matthew Macfadyen's 'Det. Insp. Edmund Reid' REALLY annoyed the sh*t out of me.Just too much of a bumbling idiot and making so many stupid, rookie mistakes.Other than that it has a good cast, aside from Macfadyen, and good stories.Whitechapel is way better! I probably won't watch a second season, unless they get rid of Det. Insp. Edmund Reid or he gets a personality change! :)
