5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent adaptation of Iain Banks' novel, 13 April 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Complicity [DVD] [2000] (DVD)
This is a top notch adaptation of one of Iain Banks' "dark" novels. Given the graphic nature of some the sex and violence in the novel, which would have been very difficult to present in a film, the makers have kept very true to the spirit of the book.

Several of the cast were in the adaptation of The Crow Road, another Banks novel, and overall the cast is well balanced.

The sound problem experienced by VHS users is much less noticeable with the DVD when using a suitable Dolby Pro-logic TV system.

This is a tight well fashioned drama that is gripping throughout. It is a production of the highest quality, achieved on a tight budget, which will appeal both to fans of Banks' work and to lovers of compelling psychological dramas. As with much of Banks' work, it does not pull its punches. Highly recommended.

3.0 out of 5 stars very, very dark, 17 Feb 2002
By O. Southwood "owensouthwood" (UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Complicity [DVD] [2000] (DVD)
This felt more like an ITV drama than a feature film, but never mind because it was a deep enough plot and engaging enough characters to keep me interested all the way through. The revelations are pretty shocking when tehy eventually come, but the mystery element (an anonymous informant on the phone) is too easily guessed, and the switching between past & present was far too underplayed in my view. I think the main problem with this film is the apparent randomness of the murders until eventually the pattern is revealed. There is some kind of technical problem with the sound, I found it very hard to make out what the hell people were saying half the time - it's not just the scottish accent but the fact it was muffled or 'mumbled' a lot. Perhaps advisbale to watch with subtitles on. Good in some ways, watchable but, ultimately far too TV-drama-ish.
