Behind Her Eyes is a decent story - up to a point - and well acted by Simona Brown, Eve Hewson, and Tom Bateman.
I won't rehash the plot. I will say it keeps you guessing, and there are a few twists.
However, at the very end, there is one twist too many.
Also, I think people were misled and upended by what it was they were watching. They were expecting one genre, and it started that way - then it turned into another genre, and the people watching weren't necessarily fans of the second genre.
Behind Her Eyes has very nice production values and good-looking people. The story could have been much stronger, and as far as the "twists," they should have quit while they were ahead.

It's a dark series. NO - it makes no logical sense because it is entertainment!
I just went along for the ride and didn't try to figure anything out - but I never do. It's called "entertainment" for a reason. So entertain me. Otherwise it's called "class". Seriously, I do not watch things on TV to figure them out ahead of time so prove to everyone how smart I am. I don't have to. I know how smart I am, so entertain me and surprise me here and there, please! And this one did!
There were some rough edges, but that's okay. At the end they were explained.
It's different!! Enjoy!!

Interesting series that was,finished in two days.
Just when you think it's figured out,comes a twist & another one.
Won't give away any spoilers,except will say refreshing story.
Great cast,acting,locations & cinematography.
A must watch!
I don't get why there are so many bad ratings and reviews on this. I thought this show was so good and the plot twist at the end was mind-blowing. It kept me guessing until the very end and even if you think you can predict what's gonna happen at the end, you can't. And then if you go back and watch it after knowing what happens there are so many clues and details to catch. I loved it and if you enjoy twist endings like I do then I definitely recommend watching. I wish I could watch it again for the first time. It's been at least a month since I finished it and I still can't stop thinking about it. One of the best shows I've seen in a while.
One of my favorite Netflix watches of late - the plot is so well crafted that everything you had watched from the first episode makes sense by the end.
You start by thinking you are watching a domestic drama miniseries and it subtly and suspense-fully turns into a psychological thriller. Every episode keeps you on the edge of your seat, and the big reveals are done so subtly that you have to think to understand what is happening. The plot twists were revealed in such a timely, logical way, it made this a very entertaining watch.
It is not much "horror" but more mystery and psychological - highly recommend if you enjoy this genre.
