Sur ma peau

Is it slow? Yes, it is! But it's also beautifully made. The characters are amazing, the acting is even better and the story is catchy. It's a mystery-drama series...it supposed to be slow, to give you time to grow with the characters, to understand every detail. It's not advertised as being the avengers...it's not an action movie...

I've never posted a review before but just HAD to for this. I've also never binged watched 7 hours of tv straight before. This was brilliant from the beginning to the very last credit.

I love psychological thrillers, and I love films or shows that take their time to draw you in. This show, besides being well-cast and well-acted, definitely draws you in by allowing you to learn bits and pieces of the backstory and the overall main story. I love when filmmakers do this. I know for a while it's been the fashion to have quick cuts and get thrown tons of information at you in a short time, but I much prefer to go on a journey like this one. What we learn about the main character, why she's damaged, and how she moves through life to compensate for her pain is really interesting. That, coupled with the mystery she's trying to solve makes this a show that had me coming back with anticipation. I love the cinematography and the terrific dialogue. I wish we had more like this. Bravo to the filmmakers!

Absolutely amazing mini series. There were times that I was confused by quick cuts to flashbacks and flashes of gruesome scenes and wondered if they'd ever make sense, but all the while I knew they would come together in the end. This was absolutely true. By the end of the series, all these loose ends were neatly tied into a present with a bow on top, and then the very last scene of the finale blew my mind. 100% would recommend watching!

In an age of constant renewals and shows that refuse to bow out when they're on top, there's something to be said for the beauty of a self-contained story, well-told.
