Clique

I quite enjoyed the first series but found towards the end and throughout series 2, it got very annoying. I just found that the lead character would react and over react to everything she was told and never questioned anything. I felt that people don't generally behave like that.

I read the description and expected it to be a banale teenage seeries. What I saw was an excellent Scottish crime drama. It's about young people yes, but then not only. Good plot, good actors.

Loved the setting, Edinburgh idea, the female friendships and the bromance, it scares you too sometimes but that's what thrillers should do. And Holly, we love Holly!

Finishing the short but sweet 6 episode season 'Clique', I'm not left feeling deflated!

Clique is a drama that is dark, entertaining and quite sexy- whilst not trying to be too philosophical about itself. Watch this show because you enjoy dramas with a thick (and perhaps, unrealistic) plot and good looking actors who all do a great job. Also, watch this show if you're into nice aesthetics combined with great filming; it does just that.

Not too much of a slow burner, but not too fast either, 'Clique' conveys the slow decline of a friendship between two young women as they enter a darker, grown up world at university. With lots of drugs (which I found slightly too much, considering they're meant to be broke students, but hey! It's still a fun watch) and mystery that is actually engaging, this show doesn't disappoint- unless you're not into glossy late- teen shows, then stay away!

All in all, an interesting show that pokes at gender roles and feminism in a dark and engaging way- I highly recommend and PLEASE HAVE A SECOND SEASON!

Or, in terms of ratings out of 10, I would say 6-6-6-6-8-7. The first four episodes are slickly made but uncreative and predictable; the people you expect to be good are good and the people you expect to be bad are bad. Things get more interesting in the last two episodes, when the heroine doesn't know who she can trust anymore, and the focus switches to Rachel Hurd-Wood, who emerges as the real star of the show (she outacts, as well as outlooks, the rest of the cast). On the whole, the story could have been told in a two-hour movie - there wasn't really a need for six 45-minute episodes. A "take it or leave it" kind of show - no harm done either way.
