Review of Kiri

Kiri (2018)
7/10
From Promising Start to Disappointing Finish

Warning: Spoilers
Kiri is a British tv show that revolves around the murder of a young black girl, Kiri Akindele, when her social care worker, Miriam, takes her to her biological grandparents, who are also black, so that Kiri can spend time with people she can relate to. The first episode is a quick-paced experience, probably a touch too fast for my liking. After all, the main focused character of the show dies in the first episode. The following two episodes portray the aftermath of Kiri's death and how the police and press handled it. It's filled with action, and we get to meet and understand many of the characters. The situation changes for the worse in the last episode. We go from action-packed drama to an ending that has no context and generally disappoints the viewer. It would have been better, in my opinion, if Si had told his mother what his Father had told him.
