Review of The Catch

The Catch (2023– )
1/10
Bad script, ham acting, four hours I will never get back!

Warning: Spoilers
This so called thriller turned out to be awful. The acting was bad, the script was dire. We figured the creepy boyfriend was the a nutcase seeking some sort of revenge....but the plot was so hackneyed and obvious I was praying it had a twist which never came. And why were they all speaking in accents that ranged from a mix of a weird West Country to East Anglia with a bunch of other dialects thrown in at random, I am glad Brenda Fricker stuck to her native Irish to make at least one character realistic.

My wife gave up after two episodes but I persevered and watched the whole thing, four overlong episodes of what could only be described as an amateur dramatic group meets a rookie writer and Channel 5 give them a bundle of cash a film crew and a beach holiday.
