Absolutely amazing mini series. There were times that I was confused by quick cuts to flashbacks and flashes of gruesome scenes and wondered if they'd ever make sense, but all the while I knew they would come together in the end. This was absolutely true. By the end of the series, all these loose ends were neatly tied into a present with a bow on top, and then the very last scene of the finale blew my mind. 100% would recommend watching!

In an age of constant renewals and shows that refuse to bow out when they're on top, there's something to be said for the beauty of a self-contained story, well-told.

A hats off to Jean Marce Vallee. This is a masterpiece. I still didn't get over from the finale. Especially from the post credits scenes. This is far better than the brilliant Big Little Lies by the same director, which was really good too. We can't really decide who did their roles best. Amy Adams or Patricia Clarkson or Eliza Scanlen. They were absolutely stunning. A must watch for all.

I love psychological thrillers, and I love films or shows that take their time to draw you in. This show, besides being well-cast and well-acted, definitely draws you in by allowing you to learn bits and pieces of the backstory and the overall main story. I love when filmmakers do this. I know for a while it's been the fashion to have quick cuts and get thrown tons of information at you in a short time, but I much prefer to go on a journey like this one. What we learn about the main character, why she's damaged, and how she moves through life to compensate for her pain is really interesting. That, coupled with the mystery she's trying to solve makes this a show that had me coming back with anticipation. I love the cinematography and the terrific dialogue. I wish we had more like this. Bravo to the filmmakers!

The reviews that rate this series poorly, (or comment on how slow it is) likely thought this was going to be a murder mystery. It is about murder, but the "who-dun-it" is secondary. This is a character study in damaged human beings, how they got to that point, and the different ways it manifests in their lives. It is dark and unflinching in some places, and it is fascinating. It is also incredibly well acted. The "slow burn" pace is a dramatic marinade, allowing us to really soak in the character and absorb the experience. It makes the finale that much more impactful, and what a twisty finale it was! If you like character driven stories wrapped in a murder mystery, this will not disappoint.
