Julie G Proper jack the ripper atmosphere. Really enjoyed it.Great acting and a story you will want to see through to the end. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/09/23 Full Review Gareth v A glorified tele-movie. Nothing original, nothing exciting. So bland in so many ways. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 06/22/23 Full Review Stephen W It's a lot of fun with some very good performances and there are some lovely set pieces. It's let down by the viciousness of the murders and the twist. Good way of spending a couple of hours. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Love a good period piece. Extra star for solid set of knockers and a breath-taking bungus. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Jelisije J I understand where this movie was going with its story and the message they wanted to portray, but this film would have been more serviceable from the point of view from the serial killer than a detective movie (to which it barely was). Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review isla s This film is somewhat spooky in tone but also felt a little bit forced perhaps - its predictable to an extent but having said that, I did find it relatively entertaining. I thought Bill Nighy was a good choice of actor in his role as he seemed to me quite believable as a Victorian police inspector. There is quite a lot of bloody violence depicted, or perhaps moreso bloody injuries depicted, which mean it isn't for the faint hearted. its fairly atmospheric, although there have been a fair number of similar period drama films made and released in the past. I think I mostly liked it in terms of trying to understand where other characters were coming from, attempting to piece things together. It felt like a feature length BBC costume drama production, only with a bit more blood and gore than we might perhaps expect. Not a great watch but not an awful one either, I felt it was ok. There was a definite element of enforced melodrama which didn't sit well with me but its not unwatchable either. Would I recommend it? I'm not sure I'd say its worth going out of your way to see, so no I wouldn't outright recommend it. It felt a bit too 'run of the mill' to me, although thats not to say it isn't watchable but I wouldn't spend money to see it specifically.
