Movie Reviews of The Inspector Lynley Mysteries: Set 5
Movie Review: The return of... who is that woman?
Summary: 2 Stars
I can't help it, I don't like it when they bring in a new actress to play the same character. Especially having watched the seasons back-to-back, it's hard for my brain to reconcile the fact that this very different woman is the same character. And to top it off, if there's anything more annoying than a brooding and angry Lynley, it's a happy in love Lynley. Maybe I'm just a little biased against his characters, being a Havers fan.
In fact, I quite enjoyed the nearly Lynley-less episode where Havers was teamed with another (far more interesting) pregnant DI. I would have enjoyed seeing just the two of them working together for a few episodes, without Lynley pushing his nose into everything. His character comes off as pathetic and needy, a sharp (and disappointing) contrast to the books and his earlier role.
Perhaps it's meant as a metaphor for life and role-reversal, and perhaps I'm missing some deeper meaning. But I'd just as soon these very well-written mysteries be solved by Havers alone. I'm still watching, and I'll watch next season, but it's in spite of Lynley and not because. And if Lynley and Havers ever get together, as many people seem to want, I'll wash my hands of the series. She deserves much better.
Summary of The Inspector Lynley Mysteries: Set 5
Detective Inspector Lynley (Nathaniel Parker) and Detective Sergeant Havers (Sharon Small), Elizabeth George s crime-cracking duo from opposite sides of the track, are back in four intriguing new mysteries. The fifth series begins with Lynley suspended from duty for alleged police brutality, and Havers with a new boss. Can they still function as a team, now that they re apart?Drama DVD Video
