-
It’s not offensive, just de trop, arch and effortful. For all the ambition and great performances, six episodes feel like 10.
-
These two [Paterson Joseph and Daisy Haggard], rather than any stylistic flourishes, will remain the main reason to continue watching the remaining five episodes.
-
Boat Story is too ambitious, too inconsistent, and too insincere; in the end, not unlike a beached craft loaded with both expensive drugs and murdered corpses, it’s never more than a mixed bag.
-
It is a clever idea, evidenced by the quality of the cast willing to be in it. But it misses something in the execution. It is almost as if it is too clever, trying too hard to be kooky.
