The premise of this show is about a man reliving his real life experiences of being stalked, and for the 3 three episodes it was exactly that. It was interesting seeing all the mad things this stalker did who was player very well by Jessica Gunning.
From the 4th Episode on it went downhill quickly. The show just became about Richard Gadd's sexual experiences and all the mad things that had happened to him along with all the self pity you could fit into a mini series. It became boring and the stalker was hardly in it and in all honesty felt like a different show.
By the end I couldn't even believe a lot of what happens was true, he's changed his name for the character which is suppose to be himself (like why?), won't say anything e.g. Reveal the identity of his stalker and just in general much of the story doesn't make sense at times.
After starting well I wouldn't reccomend watching this unless you enjoy hearing about other peoples sexual experiences and all the self pity that comes with it.

As a fan of many of Guy Ritchie's films, I was looking forward to seeing this one. With a strong line up of great acting talent that have been in numerous other great films I had high hopes and it started well.
With much of the film told through the narration between Charlie Hunnam's (Raymond) and Hugh Grant's (Fletcher) characters helped the film flowed at a good pace and helped piece it together well. Fletcher was hilarious and made the film for me.
In fairness most of the characters were great and it had an exciting mix. There were also many great and memorable scenes throughout that aided a good overall story.
However, as enjoyable as it was throughout the ending was somewhat of a disappointment. Not because it was lacklustre or rushed, but because it was so overdone. There were numerous twist and turns and a slightly disturbing scene on a farm which were way over the top that by the end I'd slight lost track and wondered what had happened by the end.
Overall if you are a Guy Ritchie fan like myself you will enjoy this film a lot, just might be a tad disappointed with the ending.

As a big fan of many other Guy Ritchie films and seeing the cast of this film I had high hopes and In fairness it started well. Jason Statham's character (Jake Green) is released from prison with an interesting backstory and soon meets up with Macha (Ray Liotta) and some of the other characters and the film gets off to a fairly good and eventful start, when their is an attempt on Jake's life, which begins the premises for the film.
After about an hour, I started to lose track of the film and by then end I had absolutely no idea what was going on. Although this is known as a Crime and Action film for me it should have been classed as a Psychological thriller and that is what most of the second half of the film was about. For example, there was one scene half an hour from the end where Statham just shouted at himself in the lift, which I think was meant to be confronting his ego or something. I never fully understood it in truth.
Overall I recommend giving this film a go, you might understand it more than I did and you might well enjoy it more than me. It had some great action scenes (Mark Strong's character in particular) and the great acting talents all put in strong performances, but personally I'm not surprised it performed poorly at the Box Office.
