It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

In other words,this film is a surreal ride.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Season 1 was a nuanced psychological thriller with a fantastic resolution. So far season 2 is a soap opera. A shame, I was looking forward to seeing Michael Ealy, the one season wonder, again.In season 1 there was palpable tension between the lead suspect and the lead investigator, to the point you weren't sure which was the bad guy. The tension in the community, the actions of the media, the dubious motives of others surrounding the main suspect created a genuine tension right to the very end.Season 2 is sensationalist, lacks any genuine tension and revolves around soap-opera style revelations. After 7 episodes I don't think I really care anymore who the murder is.

I watched the entire first season and didn't find the show very satisfying at all. The actors are not bad actors, but given a script with soap opera dialog, poor directing, and an ill-conceived plot, it's not easy to give a good performance. I'm well into the second season now and it's actually worse than the first. I'll try to get through the rest of the season, but every time a new episode pops up, I don't feel in any way compelled to view it immediately, and when I do get around to watching, it feels like a chore. So if it goes to a third season, that will not be one I'll be watching at all. Whether it gets canceled after this season or not will not be a concern to me...I just can't stand watching it any longer.

I liked this, especially since there was not much else on to watch so I looked forward to this every week. It was tricky enough to keep you guessing. Loved the detective. I found it hard to believe a little bit that Ryan Phillipe had kids that old - he still looks like a kid himself. A good little mystery. I guessed whodunit in the end and was right, but still good stuff. I would like to see more of the detective with spin off show. Her character was well established and interesting. I found it a lot better than the British version, in fact, this was exactly the same word for word but just American actors - so I guess this was a copycat version done American style.

I spent most of this series yelling at the characters in this who dun it because their decisions were so stupid and the consequences of their stupidity were fairly obvious. That said, I watched the whole thing and enjoyed alternatively hating and liking each character. If you suspend your sense of reality you can enjoy the surprisingly good performances especially that of the youngest daughter, Abby. With each episode another suspect emerges and your sympathies and loyalties are challenged, which was entertaining enough to maintain this viewer's interest. I can't see an entire second season as it could have ended on the last episode but I'll watch it if they make it.....and start yelling at the TV again!
