Rules of the Game

This is a very well-acted series; well put together cast. It's paced right without a lot of filler, and the directing and production were all good for me. It's just gets a bit ridiculous. The first two/three episodes are engaging, then it all gets a bit unbelievable and far-fetched. It was a decent watch and don't think it's deserving of the current 5.6 rating on IMDb.

The acting was superb! The twists were great. I really liked how it was set to keep the mystery going and there was no predictability. The character build was perfect building up to the reveal in the final episode.

I clearly do not understand the negative reviews. A lot of very clever work went into writing and development and complexity of each character.

Sam played by Mexine Peake was truly a well crafted character. Very talented acting for such a challenging role. I will be looking for her previous roles and will be watching just to see more of her incredible talent.

All actors we perfectly casted and brought so much. Bravo to everyone involved in creating this little series.

I have worked for the last 25 years in a mixed environment but mostly male. I have seen some of the behaviours shown in this series so I can relate to some of it , what is missing though is the representative good people and particularly all the good men, the ones who are kind, thoughtful and supportive. I have worked with some difficult women but also many who have worked incredibly hard and remain wonderful. What I am trying to say is that this series lacks nuance, it like using a brick to open a window. It's a start but only that. Hopefully something similar can be produced which taps into the idea that we are not all good or all bad.

I'm not agreement with all the reviews on here we really enjoyed it and unlike a lot of shows now actually finished watching it till the end to see the plot unfold...get pass the first one as people on here have commented without giving it a chance.

I very nearly didn't watch this because of the low score, but Maxine Peake is always in great things, so I decided to give it a go. It's very watchable, interesting even if not terribly likeable characters, and overall well done, with the exception of poor acting by the police detective.
