Review of Bodyguard

9/10
[9.4] Superior on all accounts
15 May 2020
When you start watching a series and it grabs your attention since its early minutes, intensity and nail-biting thrill reaching a powerful crescendo in its first twenty minutes, you can be pretty sure that you have a valuable gem before your eyes and Bodyguard doesn't disappoint a bit in that and continuously keeps viewers' expectations high with quality after quality.

  • The screenplay, plots and sub-plots are full of intricacies and intrigues in the high British Standard.
  • The suspenseful atmosphere and cinematography beautifully unfolding and never tiring.
  • The acting marvelous, quite believable (I mean it) by every one of the cast, with outstanding performance by Richard Madden and emotional, believable acting by Sophie Rundle.
  • The action sequences and thrilling sensations superb, fast-paced and the job of a professional team backed by superior direction.
  • The compact 6-episodes series is in point, develops really well, episode by episode, and is free of lagging sequences and scenes.


I was quite surprised and impressed by this masterful British series and recommend it to every Thriller/Drama lovers. You can be sure that by the end, not only you'll be nearly begging for a second season to come, but the successful and deep British films and actors will have you as a new fan, if not already one.
