    It doesn't do anything that new, but what it does do it does well, thanks to some sharp writing, some effective rug pulls and an absolutely stellar cast, clearly invested in the material.

    By the end your credulity will have been sorely tested. But it is a gripping ride and you’ll definitely be saying no to sleepovers for a while.

    Coming in at just five 45-ish-minute episodes, it doesn’t stick around long enough to become a slog. It will be easy for such a miniseries to get lost in the streaming shuffle, but for those looking for a fleet, twisty distraction, The Stolen Girl won’t leave anyone feeling robbed.

    The Stolen Girl is off to a decent start, and I'll admit I'm more invested than I thought I would be.

    While the first episode of The Stolen Girl is a bit too predictable, there does seem to be a really twisty story underneath the predictable premiere.

    The Stolen Girl is totally absurd and strangely moreish.

    The tension in The Stolen Girl – and whatever else it is, it grips like duct tape – comes as much from these performances as from the plot. If only they could give the actors a little more to work with.

    It won’t linger in your mind for a second after you finish it, but you will have had five hours of a pretty good time.

    It’s a forgettable – if gorgeous-looking – thriller that never surprises past its initial set-up.
