Behind Her Eyes

Adele (one of the main characters) says it herself: keep an open mind.

A good, bingeworthy 6-episode series that kept me company on a rainy weekend. Keep an eye out for clues and details throughout the series, although I guarantee, you still won't expect the ending!

I admit I was quite caught off guard with the twist and change of tone right in the middle of the series, but in my opinion it made the show even more intriguing than it already was. Still, I'm sure because of this it won't be everyone's cup of tea but definitely give it a try anyway.

It's a limited series so don't expect any season 2 (although I really wish there were, given the ending!) but just enjoy the ride while it lasts.

Great acting and loved the cinematography, was definitely not expecting the production to be this good.

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.

The question with this movie: is the whole build up worth what it culminates to? The ending, the twist of sorts .. that you may see coming or not. Now you have to be the judge of that ultimately - I can only give you pointers and tell you my perspective on it. So for the ending to happen as it does, a lot of things have to come together that are almost .. coincidence. Certain things you can't plan ... actually hoping for or planning for something to happen the exact way it does is rather ... let's say tough.

Having said all that, the build up is quite nice and it really brings you closer to everyone. Especially our 3 main characters ... and another one we do not get or suspect from the start. The acting is good, the story is working.

There are a lot of red herrings thrown into the mix and the story seems to revolve around one thing more than ... well something completely different at first. But this mystery and the way it ... evolves is more than fine. I think a lot of the viewers will be able to guess that there is more to the story early on though. Not to mention to figure certain dynamics out.

And then there is this other element to it. You'll either embrace it - or it will completely take you out of it - "non-realistic" and all that. Suspend your disbelief is what I say to that - if you can.

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!!
