Madness... Netflix mini series

Scott & Bailey
British crime / police series - 2011-2016
Rating 8

It was captivating. Also had stuff in it that made my jaw drop. Couldn't believe the law in the UK actually works the way they show it to work in the series. Totally ridiculous.
Like a woman with a horrible past full of sexual abuse and even murder of lodgers by her parents came forward about it after a police visit had triggered her memories.
It had all happened when she was a young girl and she had suppressed it all in order to have a bit of a life.

Then she got arrested for not having come forward with the information sooner.
WTF???

I know Dutch justice system is lame, too soft, but the kind of things I came across in this series was close to medieval.

Nevertheless, an okay series. I would not rate it 8 but 6,5-ish.
Worth watching though.

Treason.... another British crime Netflix mini series.

Thanks, I'll check it out!!

OT - Heads of State - 2025
Rating 6,4
My rating: 9 or 10

Really good movie, great entertainment. Action, right amount of humour, and Idris Elba
Well worth the watch.

Close encounters of the third kind is a great classic with Richard Dreyfuss. One of the best thrillers I've ever seen obviously silence of the lambs is good but the movie "seven " with Brad Pitt Morgan Freeman and Kevin Spacey great movie! Great thriller another good thriller is "The sixth Sense" with Bruce Willis. Great ending great movie all the way through and the classic line"I see dead people".

Last night I watched the first 2 episodes of Last Samurai Standing.

So far I like it :)

The Game - British mini series - 2025
Just found this one, currently watching episode 2 of the 4.
Looks very promising.
With Robson Green. Great actor who can be real intense.

Detective Huw Miller is haunted by one case he failed to solve. As he settles into retirement, he suddenly thinks he has found the elusive killer in the shape of his new neighbour Patrick Harbottle.
