An Inspector Calls

Such a shame, for such a great story! The setting and the younger actors (as previous reviews have mentioned) were doing an alright job, but knowing the story and the fact there was never going to be a time when Mr Birling was not in it, I could stand no more than 10 minutes unfortunately.

The actor who plays Mr Birling is clearly the directors father who appears to have no acting experience, or the gift of being able to retain a script to memory. The woodeness and side glances at script cannot be ignored and distracted from everything else! I admire those who could give full reviews of the entire drama.

I'm not even saying this just because I studied the play, this is absolutely horrific in every conceivable way, one of the worst things I've ever laid eyes upon. Watching this makes a 10 hour testicular torture session from Hades look like a spa day. I wanted to pour disinfectant on my eyes for every soul suckingly horrendous frame of this steaming pile of dung. What an absolute heap of visual faeces. I wouldn't wish a full viewing of this tripe on my worst enemy. The fact that this won best ensemble cast is beyond me, if this is the best, the worst must be a group of decomposing corpses. I wish nothing malicious upon the cast and crew, I just pray to every God that has ever been believed in, that they never attempt anything like this ever again. I've seen better acting from a parapalegic cow.

A fascinating video version of this classic British drawing room play by J. B. Priestly. Very well acted. Not the simple formulaic story you might suspect from the early scenes.

1hr and 30 minutes of my life I will never get back. Worst acting ever Mr Birling was off his rocker it was a shambles. Mate I cried halfway through the acting was like listening to a cat screech. Like....

This is well-produced and the crew know what they're doing, but the cast is out of its depth. Looks like a vanity project and isn't worth your time.
