MamaGravity good back-story, and good acting
Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Catangro After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
busybeee2477-757-772018 I love to watch Father Brown. It is a soothing, amusing and entertaining show to watch. I love the characters. I love the subtle comedy, the mystery, and I also love the reference to faith in God.
bettycjung 7/15/18. Overall, this was an above average murder mystery series, on the light side. Father Brown is a priest who missed his calling to be a detective, but that doesn't stop him from forever meddling in murder investigations going on in his parish. Of course, he uses his position to elicit confessions and right what he considers wrong by telling off the police, if he feel is necessary. Amazingly, he manages to get more confessions from murderers than is realistic. This is fiction, after all. Though Brown comes off as annoying at times, you know he is only trying to do the right thing. He is a priest, after all.
sgar-1 This is a fun, escapist show with a very watchable cast, and Mark Williams certainly captures the vocal patterns and halting, meek physicality of the "little priest" of the Chesterton stories, even though Williams is twice the size. We are surprised at the digital video quality of this season. Seemingly without any filters or frame rate adjustments to make it resemble film, as it used to, it now has an overly sharp, live-TV quality that looks cheap and detracts from suspension of disbelief, which you need a fair bit of for a show like this.
fclr66 Love Mark Williams and all the actors/actresses in the TV show. Incredibly good cast that obviously works well together. But especially Mark Williams. It does so well with little sex, very little foul language, a modicum of violence (that is actually seen on screen). Not at all boring, to say the least. Hope it continues.
