Accused (2023)
6/10
Good but Frustrating

Warning: Spoilers
Spoilers.

The acting is good I think, but some of the writing was poor. No one in the wide world of the media would run with a story of a guy being a terrorist on the say so of an old classmate. Add to that the police not recognising his name and coming straight over it made for a bizarre watch at times.

There were lots of cliches and things you'd seen a million times before as the Muslim / terrorist story was explored once again. It seems like an easy screenplay to make. Just add a bombing, a Muslim or two and then an angry mob on social media.

However, it was tense and well acted plus you were rooting for the lead guy.

Where his parents ended up - who knows. You'd think they'd have been right back home immediately.

Good to see Frances Tomelty is still working.
