I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

hyped garbage

Good story, Not enough for a whole film

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Thoroughly enjoyed The Five. This is the second Harlan Coben story that I've watched and both were amazing. The other was Safe. If you enjoy and good mystery, then this story will keep you guessing until the very end. There are a few plots intertwined, but at the end of the day, it is about a group of childhood friends and how they come together to solve a mystery. It is entertaining and thought provoking and I adore English accents. I can't say enough about this mini series but i won't say any more because you need to watch it without any hints about what takes place in this interesting story.

I gave this series a shot after absolutely loving Harlan Corbon's Safe on Netflix. I didn't regret it for a minute. Nothing is as it seems and everyone has their secrets. After twenty years, four friends are suddenly thrown back together after the long-thought murdered brother of one of them is potentially alive: His DNA shows up at a seemingly unrelated crime scene, and from that moment forward this story is so captivating and so brialliantly told that at the end of episode 10 you have nothing left but tears.If you love investigation, watch CSI. The Five is more than a crime thriller series: it'd a story about hope, suffering, pain and redemption. Expect to be blown away.

About a month ago I had sat down to watch this show and for whatever reason I didn't finish the first episode, but after a friend told recommended it to me I came back to watch it again and this time went through the whole season in just 2 days. There were a few parts in the beginning that were a little slow but you definitely have to pay attention and stick with it. I really loved the characters and thought the acting was superb. Excellent story line and I love how they would flash back to when they were kids and show how close they were and still are. I won't give away any spoilers but the ending was so good that I cried! I am curious as to how they are going to have another season unless it will be a totally different story line with different characters as it feels as though they wrapped up the whole mystery in this one season.

Again the show itself seems basically workable but here we go again, really terrible sounds as if the scenes and the action don't have enough integrity to stand alone. And even if they do.....they are damaged by the drumming, thumping and distracting "music" that clouds the presentation.
