Review of Exile

Exile (2011)
7/10
His name is John Simm.
11 May 2011
Warning: Spoilers
Tom returns home lost, his career has gone down the drain and the only thing he has left is his sister and father, as he confronts his past he finds a life changing secret.

This is pure drama that deals with the effects of Alzheimer's and how it can affect the people around the Alzheimer sufferer and then there is the other story about a journalist trying to uncover as to why his father, a gentle man would turn into a monster over the discovery of a file. John Simm is perhaps one of the finest British talents we have today, he gives everything away and he rarely fails to excite. It's a brilliant drama, however I found the 'affair' tedious and the ending was a let down, but the build up was brilliant and how the secret slowly unravels, yet the final confrontation with Dr. Metzler was disappointing.

A good drama.
