    Solidrariol Am I Missing Something?
    HottWwjdIam There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.
    Mehdi Hoffman There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.
    Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
    Stephen Scholes Watching re-runs of a show I never caught first or second time around. It passes the time but the last two eps. I have seen - the 2nd and 3rd made - I have noticed two odd things. The series looked a lot older than in fact it was; I suspected it being made in the mid-80s when I was watching but it turned out to be 1992. Secondly, Jason's mannerisms were extremely comedic - often I thought he was a step away from doing a classic slapstick doubletake. The dialogue of the secondary characters too was daggy ("we've got the bugger!!") and the music used, corny. So it is not the immortal Inspector Morse...but neither is it the ignoble Midsummer Murders.
    kikkapi20 I love this show! It's one of the best dramatic shows that I've seen in quite some time, with splashes of humor thrown in for good measure. That's only partly why 'A Touch of Frost' is such a good TV show.avid Jason does the author's character, Jack Frost, justice, with his portrayal. He adds humor and pathos to him, thereby making him that much more of a realistic character and a better policeman overall. That's what gives this show flavor overall -- just seeing that irrelevant humor every now and then, helps to make the show worth watching. The chemistry within the cast is good as well, they seem to get along well and they're all good actors. I look forward to seeing every new episode that comes out on DVD, due to all of that. One of my favorite scenes was in either season nine or ten (pardon me if I got the season wrong -- it's been a while since I've seen them), when Jack got the promotion (even though he threw away the infamous "Grey Mullet" -- that was one of my favorite running gags from that show, it never failed to make me laugh) and as he was leaving the show, everyone saluted him. It was a class act all the way, and I loved how he kept the picture of himself in dress uniform, it showed how much he had grown as a character. Hopefully the new season will come out soon enough on DVD, so I can again watch Frost and company go after the bad guys with class and style.Please bring back the good shows!
    roisfamily Buy it, rent it, get it at your local library at the very least. You'll be glad you did.I am truly and honestly surprised a Touch of frost hasn't more reviews here. It has being ranked numerous times as the "Number 1 Detective show in the UK" and I couldn't possibly agree more.Jack Frost is a character to get into very easily. He is sarcastic, full of flaws and at times even questionably unhygienic. He's got a nose for detective work like no other always annoying his superiors. I love the fact that his instincts never fail him always thinking independently from his peers.This series wouldn't be as successful if the story lines were not as brilliant and deeply dramatic. Some cases are even to controversial for American TV, like the case of the mentally handicapped teen ager accused of murdering a child. EMOTIONAL TO THE MAX! I specially enjoy how most movie episodes seem to always have two parallel cases side by side that seem to end up related at the end. Very different, very original. The writer R. D. Wingfield is just such an out-of-the-box thinker, he's a genius.A Touch of Frost is such an enjoyable series, (specially the early and mid seasons) I watch all 42 episodes and consider my self very lucky to have found such high quality programming.By Dedoshucos.
    palexandersquires first of all, I think that this series is brilliant, I would not like to work for Mullet, he seems too strict!! I like Jack 's stuff the rules, attitudes to his work, To me he seems to like to do things His way, and Mullet always questions his motive's, but in the end Jack is always right, that chap at the beginning of the episode did murder the victim or do the hit and run. I am collecting that new magazine/DVD series of 32 issues. I think that Jack should keep his office,in order.This would help him find files quicker. I also liked the episode with Kia the dog! as he barked when Mullet was about to tell Jack off, and Mullet said, "get rid of the dog". so every time Kia saw him, he would bark! Jack said, " that dog grows on me,anyone thought of making him chief constable!" I say, "Why not" I also think that I should be Mullet! long may this series continue. I like Mullet 's office, the way it has been done.
