Objetos Cortantes

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.

Absolutely brilliant. If your looking for a happy story, look somewhere else. Very dark, very depressing, if you have it in you to watch, you get a masterfully spun story of true pain, true guilt and loss. Also a very good depiction of mental health. With a final act that is JAW dropping. I've never written a review on here, but this is a masterpiece.

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!

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!

I think people are a little confused on what this show is about. It is a murder mystery, but that takes the back seat a lot of the time, and focuses more on the psychology of our characters. This is a show about trauma and the way it affects people, especially Camille (Amy Adams). It can be gory, but doesn't really show much active violence. It's thrilling, but definitely isn't action packed.

This show isn't for everyone, but there's no denying that it's extremely well made. This was Jean Marc Vallee's final completed project before his passing in late 2021. The director and assistant editor, also known for Big Little Lies season one, really knows how to tell a compelling story.

The direction is amazing, and since he has a large role in editing both shows, it has a similar editing style to Big little lies that is very effective in the demonstration of trauma. We see flashbacks in short, few second bursts that give us insight into what a character is thinking about, which lends itself for an incredible viewing experience.

If you want a dark murder mystery that puts the psyche of its characters in the drivers seat, this is for you.
