Toni Collette has never appeared so tired and without hope - much the same i felt watching this hopeless, endless 8-episode series. When my friend said, "This will never end", I laughed with a laugh of recognition. None of this makes senseToni Collette has never appeared so tired and without hope - much the same i felt watching this hopeless, endless 8-episode series. When my friend said, "This will never end", I laughed with a laugh of recognition. None of this makes sense and all of it leads us in circles that lead nowhere. With each unmotivated plot twist, the Collette character tells her daughter to trust her - to which i say to those who have yet to tune in, trust me and look elsewhere. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Went into the series not knowing anything about the book, and came away thinking this show could have been cut back by half, if at the most just 5, 1-hour episodes. There seems to have been a lot of fluff in this show that amounted to nothing consequential to the story.

The first episode sets off what one would expect to be the unraveling of a ex-hitman type woman who is desperately trying to not be in that world. She slices a guy's neck open because a few episodes later, her naive younger self saw her ex lover do it once. Quite the awful payoff.

The back-and-forth between present life and past life and those characters were so off as well. The only ones that looked similar to themselves were Jasper and toddler Andy and adult Andy.

Speaking of Andy, her character is terribly developed. She's a bored 911 operator wanting more in life that basically does nothing with a level head, sleeps with her stalker and then becomes a savant later down the road.

The story is all over the place and deeply unpolished. Not worth the 8 episodes.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Tentative 6 until I digest the full series. Love Toni Collette; she can do no wrong. Everyone else? Meh! Andy (can't be bothered to look up the actress) is a terrible character. She goes from being a bored 911 Operator to frantic idiot. Then she practically bangs the guy following her. She's hopeless, and I fear for her safety. I'm guessing Toni will have to go save her. I get that. Intriguing and is something to binge during my show hole. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Nice try but seems like a script was left in the shelves for decades and now Netflix had to fill its library. The kiss by the fence was completely unnecessary. What age are we living in? Expand

Toni Collette stars as the mother with a mysterious past. After ending up on TV, she and her daughter (Bella Heathcote) embark on separate journeys to solve the secrets and save their lives. Although it feels like a somewhat bland production based on Netflix algorithms, there are sufficient twists and dangerous encounters along the way to keep make it moderately tense. Interestingly, even though it's supposedly starts in a small Georgia town, this was actually shot in Australia. (Review based on 5 of 8 one-hour episodes) Expand

On n’y comprend rien du tout et c’est de pire en pire… car à mi-saison, encore de nouvelles questions comme si les scénaristes fatigués (et qui nous fatiguent) cherchaient à noyer le poisson, le temps de meubler encore davantage avec de la merde, le temps de se demander comment ils vont continuer comme ça…

« Comme ça », c’est-à-dire avec rien ou presque en guise d’intrigue ou de scénar à tiroirs (aux trois quarts vides), ce qui conduit à un ennui palpable et une lassitude regrettable. Dommage pour Toni Collette, une bonne actrice qui porte fièrement et naturellement son âge, contrairement à bien d’autres, devenues méconnaissables à force de passer régulièrement sur le billard des charcudocs.

Et « sa fille » dans la série est une jolie blondinette qui se débrouille fort bien ma foi. D’où mes deux points finalement : un point chacune ! parce que le reste, tout le reste franchement… mon dieu, mon dieu !

Andy has to be one the dumbest incompetent main characters in all if modern television.

nieźle się zapowiadał... jednak rozwinięcie i zakończenie to kompletna porażka... oby nie wrócił z drugim sezonem
