Misel Maticevic and Odine Johne in Close to Home: Murder in the Coalfield (2022)

Review by dgross116

Close to Home: Murder in the Coalfield

2/10

Average at best. Voice actors are the worst

I love cop shows, and was hoping for something along the lines of Broadchurch. I don't love watching movies in dubbed English, but I had other things to accomplish while watching.

The show itself is fine. Too many flashbacks, etc., but overall - it was passable.

HOWEVER - my negative opinion is almost assuredly affected by the god-bloody-awful English speaking actors who did the voice-over work here. Add a few percentage points to your budget and get some actors, because hiring your Uncle Jimmy to do this was horrifying. For example -- some dude tried to sound gruff when voicing the old guy who discovers the dead body, but just sounded like a guy struggling to lower his voice for 1/2 a scene.

Overall, they were flat, uninterested, over-pronounced, and just plain cartoonish. No... most cartoons do far, far better.

Pass on this.
