7/10
Not Perfect - but a lot better than most things.

A solid 7.5 program. Not perfect, but not.

If you are able to enjoy the journey as well as the conclusion then you'll get far more out of this than many of the reviewers on here.

Clive Owen - an instant watch for me since his early days with Chancer at the turn of the 90s.

Set design, music, writing - all in - a good general quality vehicle for Clive Owen who is spot on for the part as the elder Spade.

This is a love letter written/directed by people that have a genuine love of the Dashiell books and not just a job. So many bad adaptions so nice to have a good one.

The beginning of Episode 3 is fantastic, a true show of what this show is about - hard boiled posturing... in France.

All the child actors throughout are great - due to it being full of euro-actors and not bad us child actors.
