Murder on the Home Front (2013)
Terrible acting
This was almost camp, it was so amateur. The acting was incredibly lame. The main guy was okay but everyone else was absolutely terrible. Production was okay if a little like a TV miniseries, but otherwise I struggled to watch this.
Hard Sun (2018)
Pre-Apocalypse Excitement
There are not enough pre-apocalypse shows, I reckon. I thought this was stylish and fun, keeping our attention unwaveringly. I think some of these poor reviews are either just plain wrong or have unrealistic expectations. I am interested to see where this goes in the second season and liked the surprise ending. though I wonder if this means a peak too early?
Good stuff.

Superb
This is a really thought-provoking piece. As a white, middle-class person of some privilege in leafy England, there was a lot to take in, building on much of what I already knew (the delights of ALEC, for example).
I love the way the film-maker re-threaded early historical footage showed in the early parts of the film again later on, but under different audio that gives a really bloody powerful sense of history repeating itself.
This as a powerful piece, and a must-see. It seems some negative reviews on this platform are knee-jerk reactions from affronted white people who probably need to be a bit more honest with themselves and the world they live in. This is where corporate America gets into bed with Republican AND Democratic lawmakers to destroy the equality of opportunity that a fair society would want. And now Trump replaces Obama to condemn a country to four years in reverse. This much becomes obvious when watching a masterclass like this.
