There are a lot of movies on Netflix that may be better than they look.
One of them is Broadchurch, a TV series about a picturesque region of England (out in the West country) where some children have have been murdered and a cop who comes from out side the region has the difficult job of figuring out the local culture. Since I started watching Netflix I have seen quite a few series with pretty much the same plot -- set in Orkney, Denmark, you name it. I tend to steer clear of most of these
But Broadchurch is different. How, you ask? It is absolutely excellent in all respects.
Not quite as good is Gotham, which is a non-superhero series about Batman's father. When I say it's not quite as excellent as Broadchurch, that still leaves plenty of room for enjoyable watching. Note that I am not very interested in the DC universe, the Marvel universe, or most graphic novels. Nevertheless, Gotham won me over.
