Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

YouHeart I gave it a 7.5 out of 10

Orla Zuniga It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

Cody One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

I-Am-The-Movie-Addict Calling this an opportunity or a distant desire to review this long lost series from the public eye and about a show that (one of my favorite, and revered actresses' of all time and highly adorable and practical) Nicole Kidman did before the world came to knew her through her films, this one definitely needs a view worth of your eyes.Before I go on with my review, I would like to tell that there many versions roaming in the market, while there are two main versions i.e., a set of 3 episodes and a set of them into 6 episodes (LATTER OF WHICH I GOT HOLD OF), so there's no difference in both of them, but I decided to let to know beforehand.The show revolves around Katrina Stanton as Nicole Kidman, a young innocent woman who is in for her long-estranged father but gets entrapped in the web of lies and brutality, when she becomes a pawn in a drug smuggling when one of the the smugglers encharms her, unbeknownst to her, she gets caught as a result at the Bangkok airport and then in the Bangkok Hilton prison (a fictional name to Hanoi Hilton) and how her struggles and the people (including her father in disguise) who help her, try to get her out of the mess. Now, my review, to this show that is looked upright to all the people who have grown watching this during the time it release (1989),You might find it dull, inferior to contemporary styles, inconsistent at places but wont disagree to me, that, it is a well made series looking at its time and how shows like this dealt such topics and how without turning mediocre, give a great deal for a time of 4 hours and more few minutes. Plus, you wouldn't ignore the musical score it plays behind and how awesome it is and how it haunts and enchants you even later and when you have watched the series.At last, do go and get a DVD and decide yourself that haven't I got you a great deal for the money with something different?

marqymarqy This couldn't be better - witness Denholm - Never Less - Than - Brilliant - Elliott at his usual best as a super top quality English boozer on a mission to get sober and sort his daughter's problems simultaneously - also Hugo Weaving as the best oily lawyer you'd want on your case and Nicole when she was an actress rather than a superstar or Mrs Tom Cruise or former Mrs Tom Cruise. When cute, asthmatic and incredibly wealthy Kat Stanton (Kidman) journeys to London on a genealogical quest she never imagines that the charming young man who beds her(Jerome Ehlers)will tuck several kilos of best quality heroin in the camera case he so kindly bought her. Needless to say it's discovered by an exceptionally clever airport dog with a penchant for class A drugs, and Ms Kidman is soon having a cosy chat with two rather grumpy policemen. This is where her troubles begin ....... she's in Thailand - where dope pushers face a mandatory death sentence - administered by a handsome young gent with a machine gun ! This film's got everything – including (like in Eastenders) a comedy ethnic postman. Purchase, watch, enjoy!

Paul Stringer This is a gripping Australian mini-series. Kidman provides a top class performance, while Elliott and Weaving are superb. It captures your attention and retains it firmly throughout. The London scenes somehow evoke in an intangible way an accurate sense of the late 1980s and add to the plausibility. Once you've watched this you will never again go through customs without a mild sweat and when you see a white sheet hanging out to dry you will go wobbly at the knees.This is a tale of determination, friendship and redemption that creeps up on you and gets under your skin.

prschwartze I think this is probably the most underrated performance by Nicole Kidman. I saw this in 1989, and have looked for it on video or DVD in the states since then. Its really too bad this series is not run on American TV or recast on BBC America. I really would love to have a copy.
