Should I watch the movie, or is it the same story as the series?


When I finish watching season one (I'm a few episodes from the end) is it worth watching the movie? I'm honestly feeling that the premise would work better in a movie than as a series (I feel it started dragging after a few episodes), but if it's the same story there's not much point in watching it, IMO.

The movie is different...it is a son instead of a daughter. The dad is a firefighter not a cop. The story is basically the same principle but quite different. I really enjoyed the movie. So check it out

Yes, watch the movie. It is great. There are differences between the two but the basic premise is the same.

The concept of investigating a murder in two different time periods is the same. A lot is different. You should see the movie.

Frequency is my all time favorite movie. I definitely recommend it. I just learned about this show yesterday and am only 2 episodes in. It definitely has similarities to the movie.

Yes, watch the film

White it's not necessary to see it before the series, it is a great film and one of my favorites

Watch the movie, not the series.
