Somewhere Between

This is a strange little tale. It starts off badly, very badly. Hyper annoying children combined with some poor acting and a weak script almost had me close to turning off. Fortunately Episode 1 is no more than a premise set up and things improve significantly as the series progresses. An unbelievably drab looking Patton (still gorgeous) and Sawa as a burn out ex-cop do a decent job holding this together. It's not rocket science, but worthwhile for passing some cold winter nights in front of the TV.

The story is an interesting idea and I agree with both negative and positive reviews. The acting is bad, particularly Paula Patton. Her facial expressions are very forced and over the top. Her eyebrows say stressed, her eyes say kiss me but her mouth is open 99% of the time. The daughter might as well reas her lines off of an A4 sheet in front of us. I'm not a fan of bratty children who are 8 going on 28. The Nico character delivers some pretty ridiculous lines I'll be honest. Dad did a good job but still not Oscar worthy. The only character I found interesting was Kyle (ghost) but even so we only know the character briefly. But negativity aside, I watched it and enjoyed the story. Watch it for yourself and see what you think.

The series starts out slow, I put the story develops nicely. Most of the acting is decent, but Paula Patton really can't act well. Even the kid actor does a more convincing job of acting than Paula Patton. Too many plot twists are cliche, corny and predictable, but still it was a good binge watch on Netflix.

I am glad i did not read the negative reviews before watching this show as i might not have watched it. I enjoyed every minute and was hanging waiting for the next weeks episode, It had its twists and turns that kept you interested week to week i have never reviewed a show before but felt that this show did not deserve all the negatives it is receiving if you like crime/thriller shows you should enjoy it

Listen to the negative reviews. The acting in this is terrible and the child is irritating af and needs a proper slap. Can't even finish the first episode, I'm just sat eye rolling at every scene!
