Injustice

I enjoyed this series but it never quite became as gripping as i felt it should have been. A little slow and dull. Maybe fewer episodes might have helped to speed things up a little. Worth watching but no more than that.

This show was pure entertainment from the start. Good story with a twist, good acting, a few surprises and well worth watching.

James Purefoy plays William Travers, an attorney who is very disturbed by "Injustice" in this 2011 miniseries.

Travers is so disturbed by injustice that when one of clients, Spaull, is found not guilty and laughingly informs Travers that he is, Travers has a complete breakdown. We don't see it; it is alluded to during the show. The Spaull's act was responsible for the death of a small boy, who appears to Travers from time to time. So one has to wonder if he's truly back to normal.

In the meantime, Spraull is found murdered, and an evil detective D.I. Wenborn (Charlie Creed-Miles) is investigating. I have to say that Creed-Miles is either a fabulous actor or the worst human being on earth because I can't remember hating a character as much as I hated this character.

Travers is approached by an old college friend (Nathaniel Parker) who is charged with the murder of a young woman who worked in his office. Travers takes the case, which becomes very complicated.

That's all I'll say. The acting is wonderful from the entire cast, Purefoy and Creed-Miles being standouts.

Highly recommended.

This is a slow moving series that will reward the viewers if they can get past the first episode. That episode does little to draw the viewer into the story since it is mainly a series of flash backs that offer little explanation about their purpose, the characters, or the plot. It seems to represent just the perspective of the Director as to only what he thinks viewers need to know at that moment in time. It almost resulted in my discontinuing to watch half way through that episode. I'm glad I stuck with it! The first episode just has too many unknowns for viewers to engage, start to build or understand the character connections, and the nature of the plot itself. It's a bit like a slow weave that has to go through a number of rows before one sees the pattern emerge. However, it is quite clever....just not for everyone!

I really wish there were more seasons of this. Great premise & James Purefoy was brilliant!
