Virginia White I think it was a fantastic movie all the actors and actresses were really great and it was a gorgeous film and it showed just how people were treated who were in a lower class and how the rich treated them as well.

bridget-13 This is a well acted TV mystery movie. I have not read the book on which it is based, but it is a story about young women being strangled in London in the 19th century, and the circumstances surrounding the investigation of two of the murders. Several characters emerge from these investigations to jolly the story along.However, I found the characters to be stereotypical and shallow. The movie's view of the 19th century is lightweight, and all the characters - dastardly males, entrenched class snobs, decent humble servants, rebellious daughters, caring professional policemen, etc. - are cardboard cut-outs. I found the story to be crushingly predictable and boring.If you like easy dramas, you will enjoy this.

TeaJay While liberties were taken with the original story by Anne Perry, the Cater Street Hangman was very true to the overall feeling of the novel. Eoin McCarthy did an outstanding job as Inspector Pitt - very believable. Keeley Hawes also did wonderful work as the much-oppressed, liberal-minded woman of Victorian times. I wasn't interested in Anne Perry's work until after I had watched this movie, and I hope to see more adaptations of this series in the near future.

erin-31 I enjoyed this movie. I thought it was very well done and I cannot wait to see more shows. The acting was great. Mr McCarthy and Ms Hawes did an excellent job of bring the lead characters to life.
