ada the leading man is my tpye

Mischa Redfern I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

Catherina If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

Paul Evans Frances Durbridge's story 'My Wife Melissa' is possibly his finest work, a prolific writer that wrote some wonderfully intriguing mysteries.I'm a huge fan of the 1974 version, totally faithful, beautifully acted, done in the way of a stage play.For the updated production Channel 4 called in Alan Bleasdale, notably famed for Boys from the Black stuff.For me I'm glad to story was changed and updated, had it been a carbon copy of the previous version it would have been wasteful. There were changes, Melissa survives a lot longer then she's meant to, giving her more of a character. Guy is given more of a story.Jennifer Ehle and Julie Walters are utterly terrific, Adrian Dunbar is a brilliant actor, but I'm not sure how suited to the part he was.Part 1 was a little disappointing, it acts almost like a prequel, it gives the back story to the characters, it's a little hit and miss, but after that it's fantastic, Part 4 in particular is wonderful. Really worth watching. 9/10

kat-1 Melissa was fantastic. Not because of Bleasdale's production - In fact compared to G.B.H and Jakes Progress it was rather disappointing. But because of performances from Jennifer Ehle, Julie Walter and the marvellous and incredibly underestimated Diana Weston it shone like a shining star.

glory-8 This was an engaging and enthralling mystery series, with many unexpected developments along the way. Jennifer Ehle was excellent in the title role, and provided the program with a lot of momentum. The entire cast was good, with perhaps the exception of Adrian Dunbar, and the material that they had to work with was first class. Anyone looking for a screen adaptation of the novel will be disappointed, as Alan Beasdale has taken major liberties with his source material - but in my opinion, his version is better than the original. A worthwhile experience - hang in for the whole of the series for an enjoyable time!

ej_edwards This is what British drama - good British drama - is all about: fine performances (not just a big name dragging a bunch of good-lookers), effective direction, an unbeatable, realistic script and effects that don't take over from actions.Jennifer Ehle was excellent as the enigmatic Melissa in the title role, Julie Walters - as ever - turns out a stirring performance, and Diana Weston's drunken Hope brings a smile to the face with those Shirley Bassey impersonations.Something of a gentle thriller, and something that will definitely keep you guessing until the end.
