Fuego cruzado

Repetitive and ridiculous in equal,measure. No discernible plot. Muddled direction and devoid of direction. Unconvincing characterisation. Even inTenerife, the armed police would have been there in minutes. I could write more but this nonsense doesn't warrant the effort. Oh dear, I have to write more to meet the minimum review criteria. I'm off to make a cup of tea now. Then I will switch over and watch a documentary about fish. This review may seem meaningless but believe me, it is far more compelling than this over hyped nonsense. Rubbish. Absolute trash. There aren't even pretty landscapes of the island.

With such a great cast how could this be soo bad and how did they accept the script? The location is beautiful but none of that is shown.

How can two young boys with the smallest of guns cause so much damage?

The police were supposed to get there in thirty minutes but Keely is still running around two hours later saving everyone and not worrying about where her own family is. She was more bothered about her lover. I'm all for something that is a bit far fetched for TV viewing but let's not insult peoples intelligence. I doubt there will be a second series.

This must be one of BBC's worst ever.

A trio of families head for a holiday in Spain, but the relaxation is cut short when gunmen open fire on the unsuspecting holiday makers.

Well, you couldn't escape the adverts for this one, The BBC definitely plugged this one, it was everywhere.

Now I may be in the minority here, but I really enjoyed the first episode, and despite one or two quibbles, it grabbed my attention, and had me on the edge of my seat.....

Episodes two and three however, oh Dear, it fell apart quite quickly, the events were just impossible to believe, and the relationships that we were told about, they just didn't seem realistic or even possible.

The idea was a truly great one, a chilling concept, and as many people are aware, similar atrocities did actually happen.

Jason, truly the most ridiculous character on the box this year, he turns out exactly as I predicted, very lazily written.

The acting was very good, Keeley Hawes was excellent, I also enjoyed Josette Simon and Daniel Ryan, they were very good, just badly served for the most part.

5/10.

So in this large hotel only these guests ended up running round bumping into each other. Not sure who's kids were whose. Good job keeley managed to get hold of a shotgun from the back office or I don't know what they'd have done. And those poor kids must all be burnt to a crisp in that heat and no sun cream To say there only appeared to be 2 gunmen then everyone could have been saved quite easily.

This island is so remote it's either Alcatraz or the Island from Lost, cos local police didn't turn up till about a week later Complete drivel and what not to do if ever you are trapped in a massive hotel with no security and all doors and gates locked.

Keeled Hawes having great difficulty acting to the lines of this one. The script and dialogue are extremely poor and the resort makes you think you're watching Benidorm with guns. Only one episode in but I'll be surprised if this gets any better. So a bunch of people are stuck on an island and someone shooting at them I'm certainly not giving away any spoilers with that. How long can you act scared for and make phone calls back home when you're on holiday Shane you're being attacked for no rhyme or reason. You'll be happy to know as well there's plenty of overacting in this new drama. I'll give it the second episode but I can't see it improving.
