Audience Member Not as good as the bkkm Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Brave yet flawed adaption of Iain Banks' dark novel. The characters appear flat as they wade through some bland dialogue. Jonny Lee Miller goes through the remarkable events as if he were buying socks. The shocks and surprises fail to shock or surprise. A more full on darker thrust would have prevented this from resembling a poor episode of Taggart. Well done for having a go and well done for keeping it in Scotland rather than moving it to another locale. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a prime example of how to get a book adaptation completely wrong, in attempts at cutting it down to size they combine events and mix up timings of conversations that really distort the story and the characters so that it makes no sense and importantly reveals the twist long before the book does. It completely changes the characters and in a scene in the police station falls back on a movie cliche directly contradicted in the book (good cop-bad cop) Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Jonny Lee Miller's acting isn't brilliant from the off, but he's quite convincing by the end. Good shots of Inchmickery at the climax too. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member If watching paint dry is an option, maybe I would advise you to take it. The actual storyline is not too bad and could have been portrayed much better, but this film is dull and hard to understand through lapses of boredom. Even Brian Cox? entrance did nothing to make this film more appealing. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member Boooring. Which is weird, considering the source material.
