The Sounds

Really enjoyed this great NZ drama, such beautiful scenery, excellent storyline, lots of twists & turns. Would have loved to hear there would be a second series as there is such variety in the cast. Didn't have a problem with any of the actors as those were the particular parts they had to play, I thought the characters developed well as the storyline played out.

Really enjoyed this. Above par mini series. The bloke who played the cop was excellent, as were the actors for Pania and Ryan, the nosey ex journo, and the cop's two daughters. Felt very authentic. This part of NZ is stunning, just wished the director had given it more justice. It truly is a jaw dropping area but the colours seemed muted which made it feel a bit drab and cold. But the series is worth a weekend binge imho.

I enjoyed this series of 8 episodes a great deal. Maybe it's because I am a New Zealander and appreciate the storyline better than others. I thought the acting, particularly the lead characters, was very realistic and it held my attention until the end of Season 1. I hope the ending, which left unanswered questions means another season at least to wrap up the storyline. I don't like shows that leave you hanging, with lots of loose ends. Well worth watching in my opinion and the series was beautifully shot in one of the most majestic locations in the country of New Zealand's South Island.

After episode 8 we are left hanging. This show get very good around episode 6.

Episode 1 started off a little slow and disjointed, but things start to get very interesting from episode 2 onward. Right from the outset you get the feeling Maggie's possibly not being honest with those around her regarding the "disappearance" of her husband Tom (?). Something is up, and I'm intrigued to see where the deception will lead to. Things take a darker turn in Episode 3 which has left me hanging on for more weekly episodes. The locations are stunning, beautifully shot, and the haunting score had me in tears during a particular scene in episode 3. Fantastic cast made up of both New Zealand and Canadian talent. Newcomer Anna-Maree Thomas who plays Zoe is brilliant. Recommended.
