The other reviews say it all, I just had to say how I loved this!
The main characters develop wonderfully almost to the point of being a superhero team, one with fags, sexism, fluid sexuality, diets entirely of fast food, and who all spatter the series with very realistic emotional fallout.
The storylines vary on all levels, with the bigger story thread running through that will draw you to binge watch. But it is more the interplay of the characters, the realism and the humour that makes this series stand out.
It's got the feel of a very good version of The Sweeney and some other top cop dramas of the same era, very much updated and fresh but with remnants of the 70s.

I enjoyed the movie as a very different angle on a well known story, and how within that it didn't overstate the usual story. The cinematography and focus on Mary was captivating, though some of the other acting and portrayal did let it down. I suspect the editing might not have helped.
I was hoping it was going to go on to tell the at least something of Mary following the death of Jesus which would have been adventurous as well as diffficult without resorting to an excess drama or spinning something of the "Da Vinci" line. Maybe one day someone will go there.
As someone else mentioned, this is a movie telling a story which it does really well. It's not a historical document.
