great performance by main actors and unpredictable plot twists. so i don't understand why critics are so stupid to recognise what it's perfect

This Miniseries is very good. Actually one of the best I‘ve ever seen! It is a very gripping family drama with some twists I did not have seen coming. I would wish to see a second season! Definitely a recommendation!!

A heartbreaking, emotionally difficult picture. But just as beautiful. The story captures so much that it is impossible to break away. And events give a reason to ask questions to yourself. Applause, it's incredible..

If the other Apple TV shows are anything like this than I’m extremely happy that I got this subscription.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. 值得一看的悬疑电视剧，逐渐深入、几经反转的剧情，巧妙的利用了摄像机“欺骗”了观众。虽然结局并没有说明谁是真凶，但在这部电视剧中，无罪和有罪都是可以相互反转的。… Expand

Me gustó mucho esta serie, la trama y la actuación de Cris Evans.
Me gustaría que haya una segunda temporada pero es una miniserie.
