Juste un regard

Loving this mini series, very puzzling and surprises in every episode thus far - and has kept us on the edge of the seat wanting more -

Very good mystery thriller with one of the most beautiful endings....

Eva Beaufils is happily married with two children; then one day she finds an old photograph of four people. One of them she recognises as her husband. She asks him about it and he claims it isn't him. Shortly afterwards he is kidnapped. As she tries to discover what happened to him she learns many things about him and herself; with possible connections to tragic events fifteen years previously.

I really enjoyed this French crime drama, based on a book by Harlan Coben. The mystery starts early on and gets deeper as the story progresses; as one question is answered another is raised. It must be admitted that the viewer does have to suspend their disbelief at times... some of the fifteen year old secrets would have been almost impossible to keep for that long, especially given how easily some are uncovered at the point required by the plot. Thankfully the tension is kept high enough that it is easy to overlook them while actually watching. The cast does a solid job, most notably Virginie Ledoyen as Eva and Thierry Neuvic as her husband Bastien. Overall I'd certainly recommend this to fans of crime dramas with plenty of twists, so long as you can overlook the more farfetched moments.

These comments are based on watching the series in French with English subtitles.

I am a big fan of french films and series but to me this show was between bolywood and hollywwood. Not worth watching! Police was dumb! The woman discovers evetything on her own even those small kids google something to get the truth about the dad but not the police. Those kids give the google result to police! Even when people are under arrest police not interviewing them. They interviewed by victims sister or brothers to make revenge. Bad poeple .. ugly dark face Good people..beatiful face Series finished with some unknown unsolved parts. ..

Engrossing, intricately plotted, well-made multi-character mystery loaded with twists and turns. Like "El Inocente", the recent Spanish hit which led me to this mini-series via Harlan Coben, attention must be paid at all times but rest assured that by the end nearly all of your questions will be answered. Virginie Ledoyen always has been & still is one of the most beautiful women in the world and I just love looking at her, but the shining star of the series is Jimmy Jean-Louis, who has a genuinely intimidating physical presence (he would be perfect as a henchman in a James Bond movie). The 4th episode is a little filler-ish, but other than that, a terrific show. *** out of 4.
