Bouquet of Barbed Wire

A stellar cast. There's absolutely no doubt about it. That said, what is missing is any plausible reason for committing this atrocious adaptation. All the characters have no redeeming features, save for two, the Gran and Son (with his natty Robert Smith style hairdo). Trevor Eve is more hammy than an Jamón ibérico. Hermione Norris is much the same. Imogen Poots and Jemima Roper should have read the script first before accepting the job. Tom Riley is just awful. Really bad. If I could have given it zero stars, I would have done so. I would heartily recommend that you avoid this at all costs. It really is a waste of your time, 3 hours of your time.
