The Suspect (2022)
6/10
Unnecessarily disappointing!
23 October 2022
A far-fetched whodunnit which could have been really enjoyable had it not been for the gross incompetence of the detectives on the case.

The far-fetched nature of the plot is standard fare so should be expected and can easily be ignored but as many reviewers have already said the characterisation and decision making of the detectives is awful. This can be forgiven early on but in the latter episodes, it starts to make the story unwatchable.

I found the final episode a chore to watch and this had little to do with the resolution of the mystery. Given this is likely meant to be the first in a series of stories, I wince at the idea of having to see either of these two detectives again (and that's not down to the actors).

Good performances by the lead and some of the supporting cast. If deciding to watch, lower your expectations as the story progresses, in that way, you may find it worthwhile.
