I did so want to like this – the tantalising premise intrigued me at the very least. But, as hard as I tried, I couldn’t engage with the characters who ranged from stiff and aloof to petulant and annoying. And with a story that was just a little too chilly and inscrutable for its own good I really couldn’t summon up much of a response beyond a rather tepid anxiety.
A flic that promises much and looks rather beautiful but ultimately it’s a bit of a cock-tease (in every sense) and is only really as appealing as licking coloured ice.
