Turismo Selvagem

Though the leads shine, the run time lulls. 50+ minutes of filler and the odd intrigue thrown in for good measure. Those not fully watching will be entertained and enjoy. Lots of fluff and thrills but not a lot of substance. The show would do well to trim future episodes to 30+ minutes. Cut out the unnecessary dribble and concentrate on things that matter which is the main 3 cast and the plot. Jenna Coleman has her charms and Oliver does an adequate yet seen too many times role as the "wicked" husband. The show seems more geared towards more mature younger adults than all age groups. If you like a thriller with less bite than bark then this show is up your alley.

So much time wasted filling out the six episodes. Why? How much time can you waste watching a car drive down a highway? Or waiting, interminably, while characters pause, hem, haw, stumble through their lines? Endless pauses on faces, waiting for them to speak, sputter... or do something/anything!

I enjoyed it enough to watch all 6 episodes, but I lost track of how many times I sighed impatiently: "Would you just get on with it!" So much time wasted on unnecessary filler. If you don't have enough real guts of a story to fill 6 episodes, cut the number of episodes.

Some beautiful scenery, including the Banff Springs Hotel in Alberta and apparently scenes shot in Vancouver, BC. But there's only so much scenery I can enjoy while waiting for something to happen. Stuff DOES happen, and also two or three really preposterous scenes that jarred me out of the story while I thought how ridiculous/stupid/implausible the goings on were. Really knocked off a couple of points for those.

Jenna Coleman and Oliver Jackson-Cohen played their parts well, especially Jenna who got more of a range with her character, while Oliver spends a whole lot of his time on screen snivelling.

I am not a fan of Claire Rushbrook who usually plays meek underdog types with no backbone, but this was a different kind of role for her - a horror of a mother. Although I suppose a lot of mothers, lacking self-awareness, do dreadful wrong in their efforts to be a "good mother".

I can't really recommend you spend 6 hours watching Wilderness, which means six hours with some rather sordid, self-serving, narcissistic, and pathetic people. But, hey, some viewers like that sort of thing!

It draggggged on way too long. I felt like I'd been watching it for 5 seasons with all the random subplots happening. And that ending monologue? LMAO it didn't even match up with the events of the show and it was so cringey.... Ugh. The lead actors were fantastic though; they're the reason I watched in the first place & I think I got invested in the story around the second or third episode, so I finished it. If you like a Shonda Rimes-esque kinda show with random plot twists & turns but little to no real plot progression, go for it. But if you're like me, and you thought this might be a bit of a thriller/drama, just keep scrolling, darling.

Why so dark?did someone forget to pay the electricity bill or something.

This badly lit drama/thriller thingy has its moments and most of them belong to Jenna Coleman Look i have to be honest, i found it kind of far fetched i mean what guy who had Jenna Coleman as his other half would seriously think about cheating on her?he would have to be clinically insane lol The story lurches on as we watch Jenna react to his cheating and plot her revenge 6 episodes seemed a bit of a slog to be honest, this could easily have been a more robust two hour job It does drag a bit,not enough to give it a say 3 star rating. And the people giving it 10?whoahh there, i mean it does not electrify in any sense to warrant that high a rating in my view.

The acting is fine and Jenna is easily the best thing about Wilderness. There seemed little chemistry between Jenna's character and the actor who played her other half.

The Ashley Benson character as the other woman seemed kind of flat to me, not really adding much punch to the overall production Some of it was silly, women are supposed to be nice but men are not says Jenna's character at one point, really?says who?i have never encountered that in life. Some of that stuff just seed like an add on for the right on people out there.

Watch Wilderness with an open mind, you may well get some thrills along the way, i have certainly seen worse, Jenna is a talented lady for sure, just dont expect too much from this series as a whole.

If the music in the series is typical of the music, younger generations are listening to these days it goes along way in explaining why the younger generation are so screwed. This is some of the worst music I have ever heard in my entire life, all packed into one series, I'm halfway through the series and even though it's not bad I'm almost ready to pack it in because I can't take another crappy song. I guess I will keep watching though, as I am also interested as to how long it takes for the wife to toss her azzwhole husband to the curb. I would've done it before the end of the first episode.
