Get Millie Black

I don't understand this low rating nor the lack of ratings. Is everybody just watching some holywood lemonades? It is still new, but fearing it might go undetected.

This is finally a good crime drama cop show. The kinda that slaps you in your face saying this can be very very real.

Well, at least for now and hopefully will stay like that. Kinda refreshing... didn't watch a good crime show in a while. It is dark and raw but It is still a classic. Classic story plot hidding there.

And every actor is playing their role perfectly, nice job in selecting them. Also the picturesque Jamaica and it's gheto, whoa!!

Some things are hard for me to stomach, some scenes cause me discomfort but, the show overall is good, so far. Have to ignore the tom foolery and you'll enjoy it. I don't think certain people will care for much of it because it does not shy away from race. An accurate depiction if you ask me. The characters feel very real, I cant think of any character that plays any sort of noticeable role that does not feel authentic. Well, maybe the main character in a way, as everyone feels as if they are life long, born and raised in Jamaica, Jamaicans, Miller, doesn't. Wait a segundo, she was born there but!......this is a pretty good watch.

Millie-Jean Black grew up in The UK, but was originally born in Kingston, Jamaica, until she clashes with her mother and was sent to London. After a tough time in The Met, Millie returns to Jamaica, where she's investigating murder, abduction and trying to help her sister.

I loved that this felt different, unlike any other procedural cop show I've seen in ages, it's well paced, intriguing, has several actions scenes, it just manages to keep you interested.

I really did enjoy the look at West Indian, Jamaican culture, very interesting and refreshing, and whilst it did spend a lot of time criticising British culture, it's just worth pondering attitudes on being gay in both countries, one is hugely accepting, one isn't. I don't think the writer ignored that, to his credit.

Tamara Lawrence did an excellent job, I really hope we get to see more Millie Black.

8/10.

I am really loving this TV series so far! The representation of ethnic diversity is commendable, adding depth to the storytelling that resonates with viewers from various backgrounds. The plot has been engaging, keeping me hooked with every episode, and I eagerly anticipate what happens next. The characters are well-developed, relatable, and authentic in their experiences. This concept is refreshing and highlights cultural nuances that deserve to be celebrated. It makes me proud of my Jamaican heritage and showcases the beauty of our culture. I hope the show continues on this fantastic trajectory!

Meet Millie Black" is a standout series that sets a new benchmark for filmmaking in Jamaica. From the opening scene, it's clear that this is a love letter to the island, showcasing its raw beauty and cultural complexity with unparalleled authenticity. The writing is refreshingly natural, capturing the rhythms of Jamaican life and language without artifice or cliché. Each dialogue feels organic, pulling the viewer deeper into Millie's world.

The acting is equally stellar, with performances that resonate on both emotional and intellectual levels. The titular character, Millie Black, is brought to life with nuance and depth, her struggles and triumphs portrayed in a way that feels deeply relatable. Supporting characters shine just as brightly, creating a rich tapestry of personalities that reflect Jamaica's vibrant spirit.

What truly elevates Meet Millie Black is the visual storytelling. The cinematography captures Jamaica in a way rarely seen on screen, highlighting its beauty, grittiness, and the unique interplay between modernity and tradition. This level of attention to detail and craftsmanship has been sorely missed in Jamaican cinema, and it's a joy to see it executed so masterfully here.

This series is a game-changer, not just for Jamaican storytelling, but for global audiences hungry for fresh, authentic voices. Meet Millie Black has set a high standard, and I can't wait to see more projects of this caliber emerge. It's a must-watch.
