Fear

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.

It's a run of the mill bill-payer for all concerned. Predictable garbage. Mick Ford the writer has done much better work, which wouldn't be hard in this case. The dialogue is old and the acting embarrassingly formulaic.

I can't believe the actors involved would go for this nonsense. It's just like so many similar themed series before it, but it has no redeeming qualities of itself. I'm struggling to find the necessary 600 words to complete this review.

Predictable, unchallenging, and an insult to the viewer. Like I said, it's earning money for them but in the most shameless way possible. Dreadful.

Fear is an exceptional series with some excellent acting on all parts. The guy who lives downstairs is exceptionally creepy the supporting cast in terms of the family and friends of the two main lead actors are fantastic.

The two lead actors are really good. The script is fantastic. Very realistic dialogue and makes it so engaging when all the drama is happening.

The sense of fear and anxiety you get from the moment you start watching it continues all through till the end of the third episode. The villain is very threatening and scary and the house itself is a great backdrop for this tale. I was very surprised for this to be so good and genuinely scary and i thoroughly enjoyed 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.
