It takes the normal conventions of ... a drama and then it takes it in a totally different direction. Go to Full Review
Hugo Rifkind The Times (UK) 03/30/2020
For quite a lot of the first episode I wasn't wholly sure whether I was watching a thriller at all, or whether it was all supposed to be more about middle-class hypocrisy, or underclass desperation, or parenthood, or fertility, or what. Go to Full Review

3/5
Not one of the actors is putting in a bad performance and the plot isn't outlandish compared with some, but there's still something unengaging about it. Go to Full Review
Tim Appelo AARP Movies for Grownups 07/31/2020
The plot is trickily twisty, the relationships are deeper than your typical Brit mystery, and it's a smart moral critique of the consequences of economic inequality. Plus it's like a trip to spectacular Scotland. Go to Full Review
Matt Roush TV Insider 07/15/2020

Dane B. M 10/18/2023 The acting is why you should watch this. All around the characters are very well played. Best scene? Jude Law's character is at odds with his co-worker and in a small skirmish realizes his fate. He is the problem. And that is the reason to watch. He's us.
