The Tower

I love to look on IMD to get a perspective on a show or movie I want to watch. But, in the last year it seems like so many people are just being overly critical. Yes, there are bad shows/movies out there but it seems like some are just being needlessly criticized. Just like this show. It was a really good police procedural with several actors I really enjoyed. Yes, there were flaws but it was still very entertaining and I watched both seasons in one day. Maybe, people didn't like it because they prefer white, straight male cops. I don't know. Times have changed immensely in the police force and the public eye for that matter. We may not be crazy about the way certain things are but it's reality. Accepting people has come a long way and hopefully will only get better. I'm a 71 year old white woman married for 50 years. I pray the world starts learning to be kinder to each other.

Definitely a better than usual police drama. Some good acting and the time shifts could be confusing but it kept your interest throughout. Particularly liked the realism of the ending.

Not the best, and the Irish police officer was unbearably annoying to watch. I presume there will be second series the way it's been left? They need to up their game in Series 2..

I don't know why I have to write 600 characters. So please read my 1st hundred characters and skip the other 500.

This show has no gun fight, no sex, no CGI, no pretty hot chicks, no violence, no nothing but only a solid story, I wasn't expecting anything but had to finish the whole series in one time, the script is superb and all the actors are outstanding.

People would easily skip this show bc of no big star and relatively low budget, but if you are reading this, please give it a try, I think this is what "drama" actually is all about. Marvel's shows with no story suck compared with this, seriously.

Despite the fairly large number of negative reviews here, decided to give it a go and very glad I did so. This is a much better than average British cop drama with good acting, characters and a bit of a twist in the storyline. Is it wholly accurate or plausible? Of course not but what tv shows fall into that category! Yes, there are definitely some weaknesses but overall the acting and events are enough to redeem it for an evening of streaming. My only real complaint is I am not a fan of any show that switches back and forth between timelines. Just a personal opinion.
