    Just perfect...

    Sexyloutak

    Absolutely the worst movie.

    Zlatica

    One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

    Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

    Well, we recorded this as we would otherwise have missed the first two episodes. And then, seeing the poor reviews it had, I thought about deleting it....One evening last week we decided to watch episode 1. Seven nights of one-episode-a-night later we've finished it and all I can say is I am so glad I didn't press the delete button.So what if it's a rip-off of an older programme? There's scarcely a decent show these days which isn't. At least it's one where I feel I don't need a Mensa-type IQ to understand the convoluted plot....and it's British. And above all it is very well acted particularly in respect of the two main characters....Ash and Roach....which is as it should be. Trevor Eve in particular is superbly cast as the villain.As I say....very enjoyable!

    Leads to expect real gripping stuff, but fails on every level. Insultingly stupid occurrences, poor acting and a plot that just leaves you feeling you have wasted another hour of your life. initially looked really good, and then you know it is falling apart, when a stupid scene containing a fight results in the "Hero" crashing through a glass wall of a walkway over a motorway. Yep, those glass wall walkways are just normal glass, so they expect us to believe. I have now watched 4 of these in anticipation of something good, but nothing improves,in fact it gets worse. If you have nothing better to do, give it a try and see for yourself.

    Well you know it's a program about an interceptor because right from the awful opening titles you continually see O.T. Fagbenle (Ash) running like someone in training for the 100m at the Olympics.He (Ash) snarls - grimaces - shouts just like any good interceptor should. He's a naughty boy too disobeying his superior's orders because he wants to do things his way. After his partner in crime gets badly hurt he acts like a man possessed even if it means blowing the chance to get the Mr Big. You see he has to get (and beat) the scumbag who caused his friend to get injured.Therefore he's a man with a heart - but not much brain....he's The Inceptor.

    The first of a new 8 part BBC crime-drama series centring on a young, idealistic but ultimately frustrated field-based HM Customs Officer who burns his bridges with his employer when a drugs bust goes wrong, severely injuring his partner and best mate. Nevertheless, he soon finds himself enlisted into a somewhat shadowy parallel Drugs Intelligence Agency who work covertly, it would appear sometimes inside, sometimes outside the law, with their own "Snoopers Charter" to listen in on any and apparently every phone-call made in the UK.Once you get past the awful series title which makes it sound like some Will Smith-type action-fest, I quite enjoyed it. The series continuity will undoubtedly come from the Unit's pursuit of the drug world's Mr Big, played by Trevor Eve, but I anticipate several time-honoured moral dilemmas, shoot-outs and stake-outs, not to mention family dramas as our talented but headstrong hero gets out there in the job he was made for.Resemblances to any other BBC show featuring a black male lead with Holmes-like deductive skills, total dedication to the job and Duracell-type energy and stamina are probably coincidental, but putting the Lutheran connection to one side, this could be the Beeb's best crime series since then.O.T. Fagbenle as the lead Ash might lack Idris Elba's magnetism but he's believable from the start and should improve with increased familiarity, and is well supported by a supporting cast, which, Eve apart, appears to lack a big name, not that I'm complaining. With its topical story-lines and persuasive mixture of street-smarts and road chases this looks like it could be one to watch.
