The world premiere of this picture took place three years ago.
Fantastic detectives are now in fashion
The television series “Abandoned” (reviews of the film indicate that films in the style of “fantastic detective” enjoy unprecedented popularity among users of the Global Network) is still popular today.

The series "Left": 1 season. Reviews of visitors to online cinemas
Visitors to virtual cinemas who shared their impressions after watching the initial episodes of The Left, note the similarity of this project with such multi-part movie stories as Twin Peaks, Under the Dome, and Beyond the Boundary. Everyone who has not seen this film yet, his fans recommend watching the series from the beginning without missing the series, since each individual series is not an independent story invented.
The series “Left” (the reviews collected in this article apply not only to the first season, but to the entire series as a whole), according to some netizens, is one of the few logically completed multi-part television films.
It would be unfair not to mention the opinions of persons on whom the series was not impressed at all. Representatives of this conditional group argue that such incidents (cases of disappearance of people) constantly occur in the life of earthlings. Skeptics have no doubt: in order to “save” the picture from oblivion, the creative team had to “dilute” it with a drop of mysticism.
The series "Abandoned": actors and roles
One of the main roles went to the American actor Justin Theroux, known for the films “Miami Police: Moral Department”, “American Psycho” and “Charlie's Angels 2. Just Forward”.
In 2014, Justin appeared on the track "The Left." Reviews detective lovers addressed to Theroux - the most commendable. His character, the sheriff of the small American town of Kevin Garvey, trying not to succumb to general panic, is struggling to investigate the cause of mysterious disappearances.
For Christopher Eccleston, The Left (the actor starred as Matt Jamison) is another exciting movie project in a long list of paintings, including Others, Shallow Grave, Existence. This time, Eccleston appeared before the audience in the guise of a former clergyman who exchanged a cassock for the chair of the publisher of a local newspaper.
Liv Tyler, who played the role of Meg (a girl who is being hunted by religious fans), already had experience in participating in fantastic projects when she left the movie theater. In 2010, she appeared on the screens in the movie The Incredible Hulk, and in 2013 she starred in the science fiction film Robot and Frank.
The heroine Amy Brenneman (the actress played Laura Garvey, the wife of the fearless sheriff embodied by Justin Theroux), having appeared at the very beginning of the first episode of the first season, intrigued many connoisseurs of both detectives and science fiction.
Before getting into the project under discussion (the release date of the series “Left” is June 29, 2014), Amy starred in 88 Minutes, Fight (where she shared the set with Al Pacino and Robert de Niro), Day light ”and many other paintings.
No less rich stage experience was behind Chris Zilka (he got the role of Tom Garvey, son of Kevin and Laura). At the time of filming in the "Left" Zilka already starred in the science fiction films "Secret Circle" and "Tips from the Other World."
The role of the daughter of the spouses of Garvey - a girl named Jill - went to the young actress Margaret Cuelli. In August of this year, another fantastic thriller was released with her participation - Death Note.
In the series "Left" also starred Carrie Coon, Emily Mead, Amanda Warren, Ann Dowd and other actors.
Mysterious Sectarians
Many viewers are haunted by characters nicknamed "people in white." Some Internet users who have watched the series "Left" (reviews of these people are also posted on the Web) call them sectarians.
What "people in white" want from the civilian population is incomprehensible to anyone. One thing is clear: thoroughly mastering the art of hypnosis, they are also fabulously rich. Perhaps secrets will be revealed in one of the last series.
And while one half of visitors to online cinemas discuss the first shots of the series “Left” (season 1 began with a scene contrary to common sense), the second half wonders: why the heroes of the series, who do not feel special sympathy for sectarians, suddenly find themselves in their ranks, and most importantly - where did the people in white have money to buy so much real estate.
Series Summary
One fall, the inhabitants of a small American town suffered unheard of grief - two percent of their compatriots disappeared without a trace. As it turned out later, the same fate befell the inhabitants of the entire globe: one hundred forty million people living in different countries and working in different industries suddenly suddenly “disappeared” somewhere. The town sheriff - Kevin Garvey, unsuccessfully trying to unravel the mysterious case of mass extinction.
Three years passed, but people could not come to terms with the loss of loved ones. Someone is trying to forget about their grief by joining the participants of a strange sect - silent smokers dressed in white clothes, others (mostly young people) live as if every new day is the last.
Reviews of users of the global network about the series as a whole
If after watching the first season of “Abandoned”, most viewers considered themselves fans of this project, then with the release of subsequent episodes, the authors of positive and negative reviews were divided into almost equal groups.
Most of the viewers who left negative reviews are indignant because of the abundance of scenes of outright violence and numerous episodes where obscene language sounds.
It is pleasant to note that the annoyance that literally permeates the negative reviews of the regulars of online cinemas who lost their patience at the end of the first season was replaced by short, playful remarks towards the end of the film.
According to the merry fellow, "Left" is a series whose plot is borrowed not only from famous American screenwriters. For example, the heroine, embodied by Liv Tyler, desperately chopping a trunk of an immense tree, for some moviegoers caused an association with an episode from the old Soviet film "Communist".
