Wilderness - Fuori controllo

I dont understand all the negative reviews. I've seen worse mysteries. The acting was good. The storyline was engaging & took some turns you dont always see in this genre. I like that each episode had a surprise end which made you want to watch the next episode because you just had to find out what happened. The depiction of what happens to a marriage when trust is broken was very realistic. I found it very believable as to how Liv keeps getting drawn in, as that IS what happens when you really love someone. However, there were some plot flaws. The red jacket for one. Police would have found that right away. The script for Will was very boring. He says the same apology over & over again. Poor writing on that one. The ending was cringe worthy. But that's what a " thriller" is supposed to do.

It draggggged on way too long. I felt like I'd been watching it for 5 seasons with all the random subplots happening. And that ending monologue? LMAO it didn't even match up with the events of the show and it was so cringey.... Ugh. The lead actors were fantastic though; they're the reason I watched in the first place & I think I got invested in the story around the second or third episode, so I finished it. If you like a Shonda Rimes-esque kinda show with random plot twists & turns but little to no real plot progression, go for it. But if you're like me, and you thought this might be a bit of a thriller/drama, just keep scrolling, darling.

I did not enjoy this series at all. It progresses slowly and lacks excitement. However, the lead actress delivers a commendable performance. Unfortunately, the storyline is cringeworthy and the detective's investigation appears amateurish. I cannot recommend investing your time in this TV series. For its weak storyline, slow pace, and unsatisfying ending, I would rate it 2/10 instead of 1/10, solely acknowledging the lead actress's talent. This series lacks depth and offers a distasteful representation of infidelity and the events leading up to a significant occurrence are objectionable. The writing and ending are both subpar. I strongly recommend against watching it.

Though the leads shine, the run time lulls. 50+ minutes of filler and the odd intrigue thrown in for good measure. Those not fully watching will be entertained and enjoy. Lots of fluff and thrills but not a lot of substance. The show would do well to trim future episodes to 30+ minutes. Cut out the unnecessary dribble and concentrate on things that matter which is the main 3 cast and the plot. Jenna Coleman has her charms and Oliver does an adequate yet seen too many times role as the "wicked" husband. The show seems more geared towards more mature younger adults than all age groups. If you like a thriller with less bite than bark then this show is up your alley.

It was ok. Casual watch. I enjoyed the acting and the musical scoring. There were some scenes I just zoned out and didn't really pay attention to. I don't get the 1 star reviews, or some of the comments being left. I ended this series wondering if there's any originality anymore. This show reminded me of Gone Girl, You, and Gossip Girl (the cheeky narration) and all of those did very well.

I agree with the Featured Review - it could have been a movie. Would it have been a successful movie? Probably not but it would have found its niche group of fans.

Am I sorry I watched it? Noooo. Not at all. Will I recommended? To someone who needs a small time passer. Will I rewatch it? No.
