Outrageous survival story that leads to a strenuous and confusing self-discovery trip.

The survival elements are mostly completely unrealistic and hair-raising. Many details are so outrageous that one wonders who writes such screenplays without blushing... Lots of boring flashbacks are used to fill the running time and inflate the thin story.

This show isn't just about surviving in the wilderness, it's about surviving life in general. There are plenty of reviews saying how disappointing it is that there is too much flashback and not enough of the surviving in the outdoors. They are missing the point. During a tough physical experience in the wilderness our protagonist searches the trials and tribulations of her past. It's well done, nice acting, thoughtful and thought provoking. Don't tune in if you are only looking for macho survival.

Started out promising but by episode 2 I found myself fast forwarding the flashback garbage and just watching the "surviving" the wilderness bits and even those were pretty rubbish. This could have been a very good series if it had focused on the survival outdoor aspect of it, but the constant flashbacks totally destroyed it for me. By episode 3 I just got bored with it. Cant be bothered watching any more of it. Netflix has seemed to be travelling on a downhill spiral lately with their below average offerings.

This started out good and exciting but got so boring with the depressing flashbacks and her horrible attitude. I would have enjoyed the survival part of it so much better than boring boyfriend flashbacks.

I was really looking fwd to this after seeing it pop up on Netflix. The 1st four episodes were great, fifth and sixth really annoyed me, way too many flashbacks! Could have been great, sadly I was disappointed.
