The Pact

It started interesting with a promise of a juicy story with a nice cast. But quickly it became far too predictable with manufactured and unbelievable characters in a chain of annoyingly stupid choices.

I decided to watch the whole thing because some reviews here mentioned an unexpected twist in the end. There was no such thing.

A few points out of respect for the actors who had to work with a very crippled script and somehow got me through the episodes.. Except for the actress who played the main character Anne. A lot of dramatic staring in the distance with her mouth open and pausing far too long before producing her lines. In the end I had to look away every time she appeared.

While almost the entire rest of the cast did a far better job on it, I would especially like to see more of Jason Hughes.

Was really good to see his face again.

Was it a continuity error that his trousers were down when the women left but up when they returned?

Having read the previous review I understand what they mean. However I'm currently on the third episode and quite enjoying it. More is happening behind the obvious and it's certainly worth sticking with. Good afternoon or an evening's viewing.

I caught this show accidentally. I had no plans to watch it until I saw trailer.

The characters are great the plot was very interesting on both seasons. It pulled me in and made me watch both seasons in three days.

There is nothing I would change about this movie other than the characters did repeatedly wear the same clothes on different days.

This movie gave a twist to the plot and the things that happened I wouldn't have expected.

Both seasons were jaw dropping and made me crave more. I hope there are more seasons to come. I look forward to watching more episodes. Great job everyone!!!!!

It's a decent enough set-up and reasonably well acted, but when the big twists came they were pretty ridiculous really.

It's the usual BBC PC affair of course. Would they make a drama where some guys take an unpopular woman boss into the woods, take her trousers down and photograph her as a "prank" and then make the people who did that the sympathetic heart of the story? I think not.

And are we expected to feel sorry for the murderer and accept that he/she had no choice and that it was all OK because the victim was a nasty piece of work?

Ultimately you're left thinking "all they had to do was to admit what happened and they'd have been fine".

Worth a watch but not amazing.
