This series is up there with the best conspiracy thrillers and Colman Domingo is a great, charismatic lead, aided by a strong supporting cast. Well-written, with plenty of what the film censors might call "extreme peril," this was one of the most exciting things I've seen this year. The action isn't non-stop, but the relentless feeling of paranoia is and even the most mundane scenes have a sense of unease, as you never know what's going to happen next. A refreshing change from some of the more formulaic shows that pop up on Netflix.

A pretty awful film, but strangely compelling. Everything about the movie is completely implausible, from the antiquated 1960s carriages to the two-dimensional characters. I can see that the aim was to create a Hollywood-style thriller, but it just doesn't work on the London to Hastings line. The love interest is a bit queasy too, given that the age gap is nearly 20 years. If you’re not bothered about realism or clichés, this is an entertaining film, but there are better ways to spend 90 minutes.

This film has a promising premise, but it's spoiled by the abundance of clichés and the sort of soap opera elements that I associate with daytime TV dramas. The two younger lead characters are refreshingly average looking, but the realism of their appearance is offset by some trite dialogue. If I had their ability to travel in time, I'd go back 90 minutes and tell myself not to watch this disappointing film.

After a rather tame beginning, this film gradually becomes weightier and at times, surprisingly dark - I can't think of any other films from this period that feature a paedophile! On the one hand, it's an old-fashioned tale about the trauma and stigma of divorce for children, in an age when very few parents split up. But it is also surprisingly modern in its insights in the psychological effects on children. As the film went on, I admired it more and more, particularly the young lead actress (who is Thira Hird's daughter!).

A very powerful film that made a big impression on both me and my 18--year-old son. If I had to define the genre, I'd say that it was a mixture of a road movie, dystopian drama and political thriller, with a really strong cast playing believable characters in a horribly plausible setting. I appreciated the film's slow build and increasing tension; the final scenes were visually stunning. Although the film portrays the horror of war, I can't help wondering if some people will see it as a rallying cry. I hope its good intentions don't backfire.

I didn't want to watch this drama and questioned why it even needed to be made, but when a family member starting viewing the first episode, I was pleasantly surprised. It doesn't shy away from any uncomfortable truths, but neither does it turn other people's traumas into entertainment. It's sensitively handled and Steve Coogan gives the performance of his career as Jimmy Savile. His impression of Savile was always going to be good, but he's a great actor too and makes this drama all the more watchable, as do the supporting cast.
