With Intent (2021– )
4/10
Slow and boring with a predictable soapy plot
14 July 2021
'Lie with me' was clearly trying to be a Harlan Coben type thriller but sadly felt more like an old episode of 'Home and Away'.

It's rare that everything goes exactly as you expect in the opening episode of a series, but it did here and that's not usually a very good sign..

Cast did their best, the main problem lay with the clunky script which had a lot of heavy-handed exposition, no imagination or spark and very little drama. There were also some very implausible scenes - the bottle of pills...

Better than some of C5's recent drama disasters but not good enough, you could find 50 better shows on Netflix without even trying. Soapy Schlock.
