No Escape

Kids partying on a boat what could go wrong? Donkey Punch was the last party boat film I saw but this mini series is way more serious than that.

All the acting was on point from all characters apart from maybe Kiffy. She just annoyed me. But then is that her good acting?

Anyway cliche get on a boat find a shed load of money just floating, beggar off with it and deal with the fall out. Although the fall out is absolutely might and whilst I figured out what had happened with three episodes to go it was still an entertaining watch. The back story to why the money is floating randomly is absolutely brilliant and I never would have guessed that in a million years.

Well worth the binge and definitely more realistic than Donkey Punch.

Hooked after the first 10 minutes of the first episode. Cannot praise the cinematography and ambience enough. Its a very scenic drama.

Of the main yatch crew there are a few moments I thought certain characters were sadly overshadowed development wise, which is a shame as they all are acted great. The mystery behind the drama itself was very twisty the first 4 episodes, but gets obvious pretty quickly in the latter half where you're basically left waiting for the finale to play our predictably. On balance a tremendous endeavor, and a show I'd recommend.

Not one for the seasick mind you, but the bouncing around does add to the great atmosphere. Its definitely on my top 10 list of recommended tv shows for the first half of this year.

My friend suggested this one to me, and she was totally right. It started out as a bit of a slow burn, intriguing, had me guessing, but then it became incredibly suspenseful as it went along. The last two episodes are so tense, I was absolutely on the edge of my seat.

I would definitely recommend this show, particularly if you like thrillers, mysteries and exotic settings. Good performances, solid direction, and one or two twists that really took me by surprise. Okay, I guessed one of the twists, but it didn't effect my enjoyment at all. I hope there's a second season because I would definitely come back for more.

Two girls run away escaping the reality of what they had done.

They come across a yacht, found some fun with a bunch of random party individuals who were also escaping their own issues.

The group, by chance, or maybe not by chance, come across a boat, and find something particularly of interest to all.

They all come to an agreement about their new findings and set sail to continue their journey of island hopping.

Their new found items start to cause issues amongst them all, ultimately destroying trust, and disconnecting friendships.

As the story progresses, they run into issues on land, and at sea.

The plot thickens as some individuals attempt to change their circumstance, by escaping. However, this becomes terrifying to some.

The situation turns nasty, and some people's lives become at risk.

Not all is who you think they are.

It's become a norm where TV shows or mini series crawl at a snails pace and you wait until something finally happens, not here I'm afraid if that's what you're looking for.

It's a bit of a roller coaster ride let down by two main actresses as everyone points out - just bland acting the two main girls but the show has enough of good stuff to make up for it. Could have been great if the leads had more than was face/look/expression - sorry girls. Every scene this blank wide eyed stare that doesn't really say anything.

Give it a try, i'ts a great story that always leaves you wanting for more, binged on it a bit but im glad because that hasn't happened for a while.

All in all - Worth a watch 100%.
