Great performance by James McAvoy and. Claire Foy. Very believable.
All in all we found this film entertaining. The tension builds throughout the film and has a lot of suspense and drama towards the end. It's well filmed, but as others have said, it is frustratingly rushed at the end and under developed. There were a few scenes that were begging to be made to give this film a decent conclusion and to answer some of the questions hanging in the air. It's like a book with a chapter missing at the end. However, you can forgive the plot failings on the strength of the entertainment value, outstanding acting, and stunning Scottish scenery.
I haven't been to Scotland for about 20 years and after watching this, I think its high time I went back!

Intriguing throughout and deeply thought provoking. The characters are so well developed and well written, the acting was incredible and the actors entirely believable. Ruth Wilson is a powerful actress who is always going to completely steal the show whenever she's in a scene and Daryl McCormack is very impressive as the young detective who helps her. The bond that develops between them is beautiful, especially the telephone conversation they have in the final episode - I felt that!
Our family erupted into a round of applause at the end of the last episode and felt we had truly watched something that had it all: powerful storyline, incredible acting, believable characters, mystery, intrigue, great filming, enough humour to balance the heavy topic and provide moments of light relief, and great writing. Loved this.
