Plantiana Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.

Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews

Derrick Gibbons An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

rjoygordon-74717 I admit I was afraid to watch this. I don't like formulaic movies with predictable characters and storylines. But, as a huge fan of Benedict Cumberbatch, I decided to trust in its worth. I was not disappointed. As a mother of 5 children, having lost one, I was a little on guard and told myself in advance of viewing--don't buy into anything... don't feel... don't fall apart. I was somewhat stoic but as the film progressed and I became attached to the main characters, instead of it causing MY pain of MY loss to well up, instead I felt the whole gamut of emotions of the characters, so realistically and unashamedly and believably portrayed. Don't try to text or work on your computer or do any distracting tasks--you will miss the astonishing beauty of the cinematography and the subtle nuances of the characters and settings--there are several scenes without audible words but these may speak even more loudly.

pollyhrdu I had thought and hoped this was a series but found out tonight that yes, it was just the one program, and we're supposed to be happy with what we got. There were so many loose ends left. This could have gone so much further. Yes, we can work out what all the clues were and what it was all about but it would have been so much more satisfying to see "the rest", when it only just seemed to be getting going. I had only just persuaded my husband that it "had potential" and that we should watch the next episode, and then there wasn't one. A huge disappointment and a huge waste of Benedict Cumberbatch's time and talent. Really disappointed. I'd been hoping for a "Broadchurch-like" series with twists and turns and eventually a resolution. I guess with the "time" thing that couldn't logically happen but was really hoping for much, much more.

beatrice7 Beautiful, mystical story of grief and hope. Wonderful performances, especially Cumberbatch.

kirstywalters77 I never write reviews on here but for god sake, these 'people' apparently had a child abducted(or whatever) No emotion, no good connection between Cumberbatch and McDonald! Offensive to those who have lost children and as another reviewer commented, they may as well of lost a dog or cat... pathetic, offensive and please if you have lost a child, don't bloody watch it it!!!!!! No police, no real investigation... posters?! disgrace!
