Review of New Blood

New Blood (2016)
7/10
Somewhat frisky Horowitz - but pleasant entertainment
14 April 2024
Anthony Horowitz is a screenwriter whose series and films I have a tendency to follow - and they are all catchy, even if not too profound... True, they include clichés and scenes for the sake of thrill and pace, but I do not watch them as documentaries or as the depiction of real cases anyway. There was an inside out chemistry between the two main characters (although the actors were unknown to me), pleasantly supported by renowned "older" actors (Mark Addy and Anna Chancellor, above all).

Thus, New Blood is a nice watch, yet "only" 7 points from me as I have enjoyed other works by Horowitz more (Alex Rider, Foyle's War, Magpie Murders), where the amount of ease and frivolousness is less. On the other hand, the target audience of this Series is evidently younger generation than me.
