Tin Star

As is my header " That Old chestnut Revenge" that's what this is about..that old chestnut revenge.

In these days of reality it's nice to see what you might call 50's plots on our screen again.

Yes,,,you can critic plot holes and a few not so good performances...but as revenge thrillers go it's up there with the best of them.

Suspend belief and enjoy the beautiful camera work and the excellent scenery....also enjoy the savage and cartoon like violence.

Tim Roth has a great time being a wide boy in the wilderness and everybody goes with the flow...

Keep your tongue planted firmly in your cheek and just enjoy...after the 1st episode you will know whether you want to ride along or switch off...so why not switch off if you want to and stop negative reviews.

Great bubblegum entertainment that is ready for a series 2 script.

Like Marmite..you will love or hate it...i loved it!!

After watching the first Ep, I thought it was pretty good and am keen to find out how it plays out. If I went off what the other idiots on here wrote I would never have given this a chance. Well acted, even though another reviewer said Tim Roth can't act. What the hell are they thinking.

This wasn't without some flaws but I really enjoyed the series. Fantastic performance from Roth and some stunning scenery.

I found myself looking forward to finishing work and sitting down to a couple of episodes. Felt like a good page turner book does for me. Might not be everyone's cup of tea but worth having a look.

The first 2 seasons of Tin Star were so good. Great story , directing and acting . I loved it. Sadly however this last 3 season set in Liverpool is simply awful . I can't believe how much it's gone downhill. I will watch till the end out of allegiance to the original classiness of the show but what a shame.

Season 1 was great. Season 2 was good, a bit more messy. Season 3 was a complete failure: Casting issues, awful acting (or lack of direction?), dumb writing and even dumber directing. The Story had no sense at all, the character's actions had no sense, it was just a mess. I kept watching just because of Tim Roth. I'm always frustrated when they decide to cancel a series, but it's even more frustrating to renew a series for a last season with a change of direction, many different writters and a total lack of artistic and clever sense, especially the finale episode (remember the Name: Alice Troughton! I'll try to avoid your work as much as possible, you're awful! Shame on you to make such a finale episode! So disappointing!) Season 1 is 9/10 Season 2 is 8/10 Season 3 is 2/10
