Interesting True crime drama
A good drama based on a true story. A detective makes a decision to try and find a missing girl that will have repercussions for the case. The first few episodes were good as the police do the detective work to try and find a missing girl. They establish a suspect and try their best to find out where she is and what happened to her. The latter episodes deal with the court case and legal disputes over certain evidence. The beginning is like many other crime dramas, very tense trying to find a suspect and build up evidence. However the 2nd half of the series is bogged down by the legal red tape over the law of questioning suspects. Hard to believe that the law still hasn't been changed yet around this ruling. It is more interesting as it's a true crime drama though.

All style and no substance
Another film that is struck down by the video game to big screen curse. Despite the budget, great cast and good special effects I just found the story uninteresting. I've not played the games, so can't comment how true to them it is. Shame as it had great potential. A nice looking film but without any depth to it.

Huge stunts and great Sfx
Amazing set for the oil rig
Better than expected
I wondered how good this could be knowing what happened in advance as it's based on true events. That actually makes it even more interesting and does show the back story of events well. The destruction of the oil rig and pyrotechnics are spectacular. The same director also did Patriots day, well worth checking out as well.

Val Kilmer as Doc Holliday was perfect.. No one could have done it better
Based on a true story and so well written.
The Perfect Cast Makes A Perfect Movie
Absolutely the best western IMO. It's not my usual genre but it is and will remain one of my all time favorite movies.

Production value is dramatically immersive. (4 more)
4 different POVs about one historic event complimented the story nicely.
The quality of the actors was incredible, although I wish Cillian Murphy's character had more of an arc.
Remarkable special effects!
Brilliantly & patriotically British.
I understand that it's a factual event, but the ending was an unsatisfying portrayal. (1 more)
The soundtrack built too much tension which created a few anti-climatic scenes.
Where time is the true enemy.

A great film with great actors and well directed. I watched the extended edition and it flew by for me despite being close to 3 hours long. It's not as violent or graphic as the likes of Casino, Goodfellas but it is as equally as immersing as those gangster films. The fact it is based on a true story makes it even more interesting. If you like gangster or mafia films you'll love this!
