I did not expect to enjoy this as much as I did. The acting was perfect and the writing was outstanding. Some of the script was so funny and well written I had to rewind to appreciate it all over again. I won't ruin the story so no spoilers here. There is one part where a character is looking at a beautiful moon and then tries to take a picture with their phone and the picture is awful. Not part of the story at all but it just made me laugh as haven't we all done that? I can't recommend more though I'm not sure if a younger audience would appreciate it as much. I went from laughing, cringing to crying and laughing again all in a matter of minutes. As soon as it started it felt like a film not a series and I think that's why I enjoyed it so much. I really hope they do a series 2.

I liked this film a lot. Its obvious something is going on and I think the first hour sets the scene really well. I didn't guess the twist and Florence pugh is amazing in it. Its a real mix of Trueman show and stepford wives. The only let down for me was I think it could have gone a lot darker than it actually did and as the viewer we should have found out what exactly was going in sooner. I think it unfairly has had bad reviews because as films go I really enjoyed the concept and the perfect world which we all know is impossible. Give it a go if for nothing else that the music and costumes. I recommend.
