The worst acting and the most ridiculous script. A complete waste of time . Each episode is worse than the preceding one and i would like to know how actors get to play these parts?

Solid, well acted period series that engulfed the UK during the long period of murders. The bias and political in fighting among the police at that time is riveting and the lack of a computerized crime system made the police look like idiots with probably all sorts of clues being " lost " in the disorganized system. I lived in UK at that time and clearly remember the case and how it seemed to be a never ending search for the killer with so many women murdered over such a long period of time. Nobody does the police procedurals better than the UK ...... gritty, detailed and so well acted even if the clumsiness of the police at that time was so evident. A great 7 part series that everyone should watch in 2 long nights.

First 5 minutes film looks like it will be great but after that it goes downhill rapidly. Poor acting and inane script take over and it becomes a " C" film with the most ludicrous scenes. Do not waste your time with this film unless you have 2 hours with absolutely nothing else to do.

Superbly directed and acted BBC crime series that is based on old cold cases. Makes the regular cable crime series look amateur in comparison . Always starts slowly with characters and scenes that look disjointed but by second episode things start to fall together and you begin to understand the story. Each actor is superb, Sunny has been in this series since its start and is outstanding. Each series stands alone but it makes more sense to start from S1 and move through in order. Another winner from the BBC.

Third rate film that seems as though it was made by a high school film club. Ridiculous scenes of the Israeli commandoes walking in Gaza and then bursting into the house of their most wanted terrorist. Totally unrealistic and just an embarrassment that in todays age producers put their money into a film such as this. A complete farce and i highly suggest you find an alternative film to watch.

Outstanding gritty realistic..... superbly acted with 3 plots running at the same time. BBC is the only organization that can make a series like this and it is one of their best. Acting from english and polish characters is wonderful and the production first rate. Highly recommended and hard to turn off at the end of an evening

Greed....... perfect example of financial greed and ignorance of the science. Amazing to me that so many informed and intelligent people were bamboozled by a reasonable attractive young lady who felt she had a Napoleon complex. Kudos to WSJ for their great article that dug into this financial scandal.

This well produced german/swiss series should be required viewing for those amongst us who think the Swiss were neutral in WW2. Beautifully acted with a realistic cast of young boys homeless and parentless after the Camps in Germany during the war. This series is a microcosm of Swiss behavior during and after the Second WW. So much gold, cash and art was looted from Jewish families and sequestered in swiss bank vaults with the full knowledge of the Allies. Yes there were some valiant Swiss and Allied individuals who were trying to correct the sad situation but ultimately the greed of the money hungry Swiss shows through the masquerade. A lesson to be learned but unfortunately very little has changed over the last century. A touching and heartfelt series that is well acted and produced ......hopefully not to be missed by all.

Fascist leader Jordan was a nasty piece of work in the UK in the 60's but this story although well acted is a little far fetched. There is no possible way that a jewish girl from Manchester could infiltrate a group like his but it is an eye opener for those amongst us who thought fascists could not exist after WW2 in the UK. A short series that you can watch in one evening to pass the time.

Excellent mini series with an amazingly realistic set of actors and scenes. Set in a real aircraft fuselage which brings a group of actors together in a strong story. As usual politics is in the forefront of this story with the UK ministers arguing over jurisdiction. Idris Elba is well suited for this role ..... tight direction and a good group of actors. My only peeve is that there seems to be a lot of guns that made their way onto this plane and that is a little "off putting." All in all a great series made with a high level of professionalism and care for detail.
