Fear

I saw some reviews saying this was predicable and mediocre. I honestly don't know what those people watched because we thought this three part-er was so, so good.

The acting was excellent. The music was excellent. The direction was on-point. It was different, and very UN-predictable. It made us uncomfortable and anxious, which it was supposed to do. Something like this could so easily happen to anyone. That feeling of being helpless and at someone else's mercy is not something I would relish at all.

Bravo to all the team behind Fear - it was refreshing and intelligent and we absolutely loved it.

This started out with a lot of promise, which it sadly didn't deliver. I totally expected it to go a different way to how it did. It starts off a bit unnerving but just gets a bit repetitive and a bit monotonous.

It felt crammed into the three episodes. No real explanations or backgrounds and no proper conclusion. I actually thought there must be another episode. Maybe 4 slightly shorter ones would've been better. Because of the lack of background I found I didn't really care about the characters.

It's a shame because it's got a great cast and the acting is possibly better than the script deserves. The house is stunning. Hence my 6.

Gave this a chance but...middle class family move into big house in I think, Glasgow. He Scottish she posh English and English kids. Dialogue dull and possibly written by AI. Creepy guy in basement, creepy from the off so there's no surprise when he turns out to be creepy. His so called business as an architect is, again, mechanical with buzz words and meaningless business expressions. Utterly without any atmosphere. She meets similarly entitled friend for lunch. Dull dull dull dull. No tension, no personality. I thought 'why doesn't he just kill them all with a rusty ax and get it over with' Good money is being spent on this pointless, bland, predictable dross.

Despite the exceptional performances of the actors, the plot was disappointingly predictable and resulted in a convoluted and meaningless conclusion. I was waiting for the plot twist however it never came. Why did the guy Jan have to bug the house? What's the reason behind the death of his sister? I just don't understand I'm so confused. I should never watch bothered watching this. Why did the Mum avoid passing the phone to his dad? Is it because the dad is a killer which is a joke itself? Ruined a very good actor wasted time don't bother watching it. Hopefully there won't be a season two that would be painful.

3 hours of my life I won't get back. Preposterous waste of decent actors in a terribly scripted, awfully directed and woefully edited dullma.

It's slow, and daft and a real shame that normally strong actors would have to try and be convincing in a totally unconvincing story. How did the dafty downstairs get all his equipment together when he can't string a sentence together? How does he afford it? Why did they buy a house with a basement sub let? Why does the Compton character lie all the time ? What was all that nonsense with the woman in the bar? Why did his wife let it go? What were the police doing? Absolute nonsense.
