Once you get your head around the layout of the film, looking at the same situation unfolding from several points of view, it's quite gripping.
It builds tension really well, again and again.
I thought is also highlighted the chaos that naturally occurs, despite careful planning and it also exposes the basic human nature of people in positions of extreme power.
Yes, we get left to imagine how everything pans out, but that's the point of the film. It's also saying that from the end point of the film, nothing else really matters...
Many people will hate this, but I quite liked it and it made a nice change from the usual Hollywood dross.
Top marks for the acting too.

Hoping that this might be a gritty drama, maybe with a touch of 'The Diplomat', but oh boy were we wrong.
I mean it was just badly acted, poorly written, poorly researched and really, really annoying.
It was quite a challenge to finish it.
The only good thing about this show is that it's only 5 episodes.
Rather bizzare that the PM of England and the PM of France have no security details at all, that neither seem to have any Security Services at their disposal either.
As others have said, the daughter is just painfull to watch and intensly annoying.
Just such a waste of time making it and watching it. Pointless.

After sitting through so much dross, it was great to watch a gripping drama, with no action sequences, no body count, no gun play, no over acting, none of the usual things that seem to be in every show these days.
It's slow, brooding, sinister and shows how things are never as simple as often portrayed in modern films.
It's actually quite a treat to sit and immerse yourself in the main actors dilema.
The real acid test for this film, was that my other half stayed awake through the whole film, which is very, very unusual!
All credit to the small cast and the brilliant camerawork.
