Ragdoll

Having read all the books in this series I was so looking forward to this series, the Ragdoll book is one of the best I have read in the last 3 years. Unfortunately the writers and directors have messed up this adaptation. The actors I feel have done there best with what they have been given to work with. It's almost like they didn't read the book and just adapted it from a synopsis, the characters are wrong and the show has no fluidity. Extremely disappointed as the other books are just as good but this has probably scuppered any chance of them being adapted. Just hope someone sees the true potential of the books and develops them into films.

If you haven't read the book you might struggle to follow this show.

I've watched 2 episodes and I'm enjoying it. It's a gritty as the book. Though I think they need to explain more in the show for people who haven't read the book. Otherwise it's hard to follow.

A FIVE was mainly because Love Lucy Hale so much. If it would have been REMOTELY OK, I would have been kinder. The premise of a super sadistic serial killer is a good start. But then it falls FLAT! I mean PANCAKE FLAT! It's like the writers wrote a premise for a story but not the actual STORY. Huge waste of time. Don't bother. I'm done.

Took about ten minutes for them to make a joke about how even white men dont like serial killers, like, whats the joke, that white men are almost as bad as serial killers but not quite as bad? Pathetic.

As usual, the film adaptation of the novel could have been great if they had stuck closer to the source material. Lucy Hale --- a Yank Detective with this team in London? Just would not happen and her character is a Male Brit in the novel. Killer is changed, ending is changed, but this version of Ragdoll can just be enjoyed on its' own as a decent mystery/thriller mini-series that chose to make major alteration from the far better novel.
