Review of Gracepoint

Gracepoint (2014)
Quite Terrible
19 April 2021
Godawful remake of the British series "Broadchurch" with David Tennant repeating his role as the lead investigating cop and Anna Gunn replacing Olivia Colman as Miller. The only other "names" in the cast are Jacki Weaver as Susan and Nick Nolte as Jack. The rest of the cast is lousy and act as if they're in a daytime soap.

The series tries to be a scene-for-scene remake of the British series and makes one ask, "What's the point?"

Tennant is a real oddity, trading in his normal Scottish accent for some sort of flat American one that seems forced. Gunn is a decade too old for the part of Miller.

The actress playing Beth is too strident and the actors playing Mark and the priest are way too creepy to gain any sympathy.

Stick to the original and don't waste your time of this muck.
