    Good start

    A really bold, highlighted pilot episode I've seen in a while, this episode doesn't hold any punches when showcasing the good and flaws sides of the characters. A bit tense, the plot setup paces really quick, a major plot point is reveal and sets the track for the rest of the season. The show is a gritty crime drama that I'd like to compare to Breaking Bad especially the integration of suburban family crisis in the central plot. The cast is pitch-perfect, the technical elements are of top-calibre, right from the first frame of this show, I knew I won't be watching the typical Netflix show but rather a sophisticated, well-made series. My only downside with the episode is that has a pacing issue and tries a bit hard to shock the audience, other than I think this show going to be a blast.

    Just Amazed!!!

    This show had exceeded my expectations.

    I have putting this show down for a long time, now finally after watching this episode, I am amazed and I regret why I didn't watched it before.... This episode contain intense moments and that background music which build that tension.

    It was slow paced, which wasn't the bad thing because it is crime/drama show.

    Got Good Fast

    So far all I've watched of this show is this episode, but I have to say that I am hooked. I've been kind of putting off watching this show despite the intriguing premise. I loved Breaking Bad and this has a very Breaking Bad feel to it. I've seen some less than flattering reviews saying it's a "poor man's BB," but let's be honest, that show was a masterpiece and we have to take what we can get. That said, this episode is a very promising beginning and I can't wait to see more.

    And it's just the beginning.

    I've never commented on a specific episode of a series, but I just saw the first of Ozark and I'm in awe. Jason Batman's directing work is magnificent. We'll talk about his performance when I get my pulse back. Wow!
