Decent story that is fairly well acted out. Has all the hallmarks of a well to do family with absentee parents and a bunch of stuck up kids who have grown up to be a***holes: a bit like their parents.
There are a few distractions and twists and turns to keep you interested but the usual plot holes with unbelievable actions and police that are, well, a bit kinda dumb.
It was shot in Queensland, Australia, but is meant to be in Florida, USA, so they throw in a few aerial shots of Florida to make it seem its there. It makes the whole thing feel odd, at times, because the roads, vegetation colours and backdrops just don't fit properly.
The ending was OK, but felt a bit hurried, tying everything up in the last half of ther last episode and this didn't match the pace of the other 6 episodes.
The other major irritation was the constant "now" and "then" flashbacks. Its a reasonable method to start a series but gets on your nerve when it keeps happening, continuously. It breaks the suspense and you fell like the producers were too lazy to develop the plot properly and felt their audience was too dumb to work it all out, if they did.
Its worth a watch and you will enjoy it. Sam Neill and Annette Bening play their parts, as does Georgia Flood.
Definitely no where near as dire as many of the reviews.
