Et si c'était mon fils?

I think that the very low ratings of some of the reviews are a bit harsh. Although it is difficult to disagree with many of their observations.

It certainly had a number of very weak moments, some gaping holes in the premise, and sub plots that brought little to the table. But it was nevertheless quite compelling, and we did quite enjoy the ride- until the last twenty minutes or so.

How utterly ridiculous. It was as if the conception and writing of ths denouement had been handed over to a beginner. For me this totally let the whole thing down and I began to resent the 5 hours I'd invested in watching the ruddy thing.

This ending was simply shamefully lazy writing.

This had the potential to be such a good series. Good storyline idea. But everything about it was wrong and I mean everything, too much to even list. The only saving grace was it was well acted by the cast. I watched all four episodes but spent most of each saying "why would they.....", "how could she....", "why did/didn't they" etc etc. Totally unbelievable from start to finish. Disappointed!!

What is it with people and reviewing - they either give it a 1 or 2 or a 10 there seems to be no rational reviewing these days - a 1 or 2 means its the worst thing you have ever seen which this is not!

I dont watch things and try and find errors in the plot or uniforms that dont have the right cufflinks for the era, I just hope there will be good acting and let the fiction wash over me and if i enjoy it then it gets a good rating based on my enjoyment - people seem so obsessed with political correctness and diversity and trying to find problems!

The acting to me was pretty good and although the story is a bit far fetched, who cares - people its fiction, its a movie, its not meant to be real life, it is meant to take you out of yourself to fantasy land where you can either immerse yourself in the story or nit pic every little plot mistake.

Having said that, although i thoroughly enjoyed the first three epsidoes the last episode was a bit hard to swallow and the denoument was a bit contrived and let down what came before and perhaps this is why disappointed viewers are giving it an unfair 1 and 2 out of 10, I am basing my review on all four episodes so it gets a healthy "Good" 7/10 from me!

No spoilers here as this drama started quite well but the last episode was absolutely ridiculous. Full of 'what the hell was the point in that?' scenarios and absolute disbelief in many scenes the drama went downhill at a rate of knots.

Ultimately when you think back to the story, very little makes any sense at all. The acting is OK from a few of the actors namely newcomer Cody Molko as Daniel and Diedre Mullins as Kate but poor acting from Deborah Findlay as Lynn who sounds as though she is half asleep. I won't recommend this drama as there is some very bad writing concerning the plot and overall it really isn't that good.

Oh dear. What to say. You know when you start a book and you really just want to read the last page to see the end. That's what this mini series felt like. Totally unrealistic, nothing really made sense.
