Any Good?

Some impressive reviews and scores for this from both critics and the public alike.

Some great actors and a really impressive murder mystery but perhaps it's because I'm UK based and am very used to these sorts of murder mysteries on British TV, that I do not score it as highly.

Well worth a watch for lovers of this type of genre even if you have to suffer Daniel Craigs south US drawl. I just don't go over the top as many have done on this simple but fun and well-told murder mystery.

MGN Rating 6.5/10 IMDB Rating 8/10 Metascore (Critics) Rating 8.2/10
