    Wow, thats all i can say after watching this one, i never expected such a turn of events and i am still in awe. i really enjoyed it, though it scared me at times. The characters are interesting, and hard to figure out sometimes. Everyone is just suspicious and intriguing in a way and i really liked that. In any case, it is great and the end is just jaw-dropping. I am so angry lol.

    In fact one of the most intriguing series that netflix has ever produced ... I recommend it to anyone who is a fan of the psychological horror style and is looking for something more palliative than "scary"

    I can’t help but feel it would be much more enticing were it released on a weekly basis. As a binge watch, Behind Her Eyes is overly drawn out with not enough drama to make up for the rather dull storyline.

    The poor pacing and uneven tone prevent it from being anything more than a serviceable thriller with a wacky twist that doesn’t quite land.

    Netflix’s new nail-biter of a miniseries, is thematically chaotic, and its characters are messy, but its ending has an effect like breaking the seal of a ketchup bottle—a startling, satisfying pop. ... “Behind Her Eyes” manages to be both over the top and efficient. It’s the kind of show that rewards a rewatch, if one is able to stomach it. ... Part of the fun for the viewer, too, lies in just letting go and seeing where the series’ dizzying hairpin turns will take you.
