A positively gripping work which never lets up the tension and the intrigue, with great performances and touches of wry humour. And a sensational subject.
Audience Reviews for Archangel
This was a very well done mini-series from the BBC. The plot twists and turns made it an intriguing watch. The scenery, and locations, added to the mystique. The acting was first rate. A very interesting, and nicely done, mystery/espionage/thriller.

I loved the story behind this fantastic movie. I am interested in this sort of thing which is why I enjoyed it so much. Amazing performances by all the cast and I loved the mise en scene so much. It was really really effective. Fantastic.

Another brilliant piece of acting from Daniel Craig. I hate the way people assume he's always how he is in Bond, this character could not be further. Shows some terrifying truths about the state of modern resurgent Russia. Brilliant acting all around, a decent plot, even believable, beautiful locations....has it all.
