ITV’s Red Eye TV Series Review by rYAN bALKWILL

Plot: London police officer DC Hana Li is escorting Dr Matthew Nolan back to Beijing where he has been accused of a crime. However, on board flight 357, she finds herself embroiled in an escalating conspiracy and a growing number of murders.

Series 1 of Red Eye was Very Good.

Pros: This series does remind me like hijack series. I like how this series can get intense & full of drama. It is great to see the ride this show adds provided for us. I was impressed with how this mystery was bull off. All the performances were great. It depiction of MI5 been so shady. I enjoyed the twist, and the finale was good.

Cons: I don’t like how predictable it can get & A bit of the action are not the best in my opinion.
