The Way

Is it meant to be a spoof? It doesn't even work as that. Whirlpool of ideas but goes nowhere. Love Michael Sheen, dystopias, political thrillers, series with symbolism and which make you think but this was awful. Only thing that gives it any plus points is acting of Steffan Rhodri and Mali Harries which is commendable considering some of the lines they have to deliver. There are so many cliches and stereotypes shoehorned in. No explanation for how a minor riot suddenly leads to army, police and some mysterious armed security company being deployed en masse, or why a police state soon follows. Avoid.
