Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic

Stoutor It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

SpunkySelfTwitter It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Lynne A Phillips I can't believe the many positive reviews this series has received, particularly those that praise the lead character Fitz (Coltrane). Fake reviews? First, Fitz is totally unbelievable as a psychologist with a doctorate and a very attractive wife from whom he is separated. I think Coltrane is miscast as Fitz. My wife thought he was repulsive yet he is constantly engaging in sexual banter with a much younger police woman. He comes across as a low-level street con artist. His long monologues in which he has these amazing insights into peoples' behavior, including criminals and others, become boring and, in some cases, are wrong. Fitz never admits that his gambling addition is a problem (he claims that it provides excitement) yet his wife seems willing to forgive him. Everything about this show is wrong: Fitz's continuous analysis of everyone's motives, the constant screaming among the police detectives, the angry crowds that are always present outside the police office, the fact that Fitz seems to be leading every investigation. My wife and I couldn't take it anymore and called it quits after season 1.

kikkapi20 Cracker is a beautiful and brutal cocktail of gruesome entertainment, savage social commentary and unflinching truth, brought to life by the angry genius of writer/creator Jimmy McGovern and the succulently human, career-defining performance of Robbie Coltrane (delightful) as Edward 'Fitz' Fitzgerald. And Robert Carlisle was never better than he was in this. Still sends shivers down my spine watching some of his scenes in this. Twenty years after the transmission of its first episode, Cracker remains one of the most riveting, visceral, and compelling dramas ever to grace the small screen. It shows the world that the UK was capable of out-HBOing HBO even before HBO existed.This is a "masterpiece" to watch!

Marcus Khaos Embodies the idea of criminal psychology to a T. Fantastic acting and script writing. Hugely enjoyable to watch. British television at its best. Jimmy McGovern once again stuns his audiences with a fantastic insight into the lives of both regular people and those that stray into the realm of criminal behaviour. The show's true strength is the portrayal of Fitz whose life - that progresses over the series)is just as enjoyable to watch as the main plot. Anyone who claims otherwise is most likely a hipster trying to sound cool by disrespecting classic TV, someone that is too young or too bitter or someone that is not of high enough intellect to understand the plot lines. Today's society needs more of this genius television making. 9.5/10

jdajda The "Cracker" series was one of the best television series ever. The screenplays, directing, acting, and cinematography were on par with the best crime movies of the past 50 years. The entire series is now available on DVD. The three seasons are divided into three 3 hour Dvds each. That's a lot of "Fitz", almost 27 hours, but you long for more when you are done! With these dvds, you get the uncensored version whose continuity is not broken up by commercial breaks. This adds quite a bit to the enjoyment of the series. I haven't been a big fan of British TV melodramas because I found them a bit slow paced, but not so with the "Cracker" series. In summary, I have seen little on TV to compare to this series.
