For Her Sins (2023)
7/10
Enjoyable miniseries (despite some plot flaws)
7 August 2023
If you're after an easy to watch psychological thriller miniseries that keeps you watching but isn't too disturbing, this fits the bill just fine. Some decent acting by the two female leads Jo Joyner (Laura) and Rachel Shenton (Emily), and an impressive performance by Laura's little daughter Eliza (Romi Hyland- Rylands). Duncan Pow also does a good job being the reliable husband who you feel a soft spot for. A basic enough premise, but based in a familiar cosy setting.

However, there are some basic plot flaws which make make whole thing a little unbelievable. For example, it's highly unlikely a child's life would be ruined completely by the historical events in this movie. As such, the extreme measures taken by Laura and her mother back in the day seem a bit ridiculous.

Nonetheless, this show packs a nice compact 4 episodes which are decent enough. Maybe it's not a must see, but it's an enjoyable ride.
