VHS Movie Reviews of Touching Evil [VHS]Movie Review: Best On TV Summary: 5 StarsThis series rivals "Prime Suspect". The lead character is as complex and intriguing as Jane Tennison, and he has his own horde of demons he battles. Supporting characters are well developed but with better continuity. The stories are similar in that they often feature some of the most twisted criminal elements imaginable. I didn't think it got much better than Helen Mirren in a police role - Robson Green is her match.
Movie Review: Touching Evil Summary: 5 StarsThis series reminds me so much of that other great British series, PRIME SUSPECT. It is classy, intricate and very entertaining. For anyone who enjoys thinking and very human police work rather than shootouts and car chases, get this one!
Movie Review: dark and creepy Summary: 4 StarsTouching evil is dark and creepy genre at its creepiest. Robson Green is a cop who was shot in the head, died clinically and came back to this side. Maybe not so successfully either. Now he's assigned to an elite squad set up to work on tough cases that local police can't crack. Tough cases and lots of burnout take its toll on the team and personal lives. The first case (my favorite by the way) spins off threads that weave throughout the whole video. Nicola Walker does the tough cop beautifully, Robson Green is weak, strong, tough and confused all at the same while trying to put his life back together and Ian McDiarmid is incredibly cold and creepy as the suspect in the first case (told you it was my favorite) which I think is the strongest story too. I love dark, creepy psycho drama and this is right up there. Boy I used the word creepy enough,didn't I? Four cold hands up your back for this one.
Movie Review: Dark Mysteries for a Sunny Californian. Summary: 5 StarsLiked this series so much on television [PBS] that I bought the first series. Now all I require is... MORE, PLEASE. Touching Evil II? Touching Evil III? Keep going...it is a highly entertaining mystery series! Thanks for the hours of enjoyable viewing.
Movie Review: Drama as only the British can do it. Summary: 5 StarsThis is just about the best contemporary crime drama on small or large screen. The acting, script and directing are subtle, restrained and delightful. The actors are perfectly cast. I am left wanting more. I just hope American TV producers do NOT try to emulate this most excellent series. They always fall far short of the original.
