That was an ending?
henrycoles920 June 2020
This IMDb page gave me the impression this series had 9 episodes so I was confused that there was no 9th episode especially that the ending of episode 8 was an even more confusing cliffhanger. Apparently they are going to make a second season. While a good psychological thriller from beginning to end, it doesn't deserve another season in my opinion, and the cast aren't charismatic enough, anyway.

If you like shutter island

Nice start and gave me vibes from the movie Shutter Island.

But i am confused how lazy the security was when a identical twin visit a mental constitution. Perhaps there is a reason to that as it seems Siri had help from inside

Hooked

I had to remind myself so many times that it's just a tv series to be able to fully enjoy it because I so wanted Hel to get out of there. I love the feeling of the tv series but there has to be a second season because there's so much more interesting things that can happen.

Btw I wanted Hel to ask them to compare dental records but because the guard was covering everything up it wouldn't have mattered. Please let there be a second season!

O hope there's going go be a second season!! I love it, it's so exciting and never boring. OK, it has its flaws but so what? I've never seen anything like it!! I love psychological movies and series! Not many series has got me hungry for more like this series! I find myself longing for more, can't wait!!

Some unfair reviews... So decided to add a positive one!

Some unfair reviews... So decided to add a positive one!

Started watching before reading some 2/10 I guess one needs to be in a mood to watch anything... Story is simple but nicely done. Obviously some parts are familiar....But good acting and location compensate perfectly

one tremendous mistake
info-30-3699744 August 2020
Warning: Spoilers
It would be SO easy to prove your identity! There would be endless possibilities. Tell them to call some people and they should tell them what you did or talked about the last time, list transactions of your credit card, content on your computer, browser history, restaurant bookings, movies in theater you have seen, ... Just to name a few. Thats what destroys the otherwise great show.

Frustrating and never resolved
i_j_clyde9 December 2019
Warning: Spoilers
Well acted but very frustrating and annoying, kept watching as thought there would at least be a resolution and something to feel good about. Stayed frustrating and annoying to the very end with no resolution. Wish I'd never watched it, in a bad mood now.

The stupidity is too thick to tolerate
hankbrns6 September 2020
Professionals change their philosophies at the snap of a finger, easy solutions are presented and ignored. Obvious errors GLARE from this mess. The place was a nice rest home until a couple episodes later when it becomes completely different Suspend your logic and common sense and enjoy the scenery, it's about the only thing worthwhile

Unsure how to rate this.
shaneandamy-1962914 November 2020
Warning: Spoilers
Gave it a five because it made me mad and/or interested enough to watch the whole thing. It really is a ridiculous premise for the doctors to believe they somehow have found the magic cure to rehab psychopaths but, the idea that an identical twin could have traded places with each other is totally nonsensical to them. Either way it's like a guilty pleasure series for me. The doctors egomaniac attitude is over the top.

" Open final" ! Feel fooled!
kikaroom22 June 2019
Warning: Spoilers
I liked the this,while I watched it. But! " Open final" ruined it! What should I think ? Will character become free or stupid doctors will make her as a "vegetable". What do I feel at the end ? I'm dessapointed that I wasted my time watching this. What will you see ? You'll see cruel crazy people (psychopath), normal main character, who was " locked up" in prison by lying. This prison is kind of a place where doctors treat mentally ill criminals. All episodes normal main character will try to prove that she isn't her twin sister (who is psychopath,criminal, who substituted the main character) and free yourself. She will meet with cruelty, injustice. You will empathize with the character, and hope that all bad guys will be punshed. But in the end you'll receive "open final", where bad sister is catched but good sister, after her escape, is catched as well. And you won't know will main character be free or not! I feel fooled! P.S I like actors.

Middling series without substance.
msghall12 May 2020
Uninspiring script with OK acting and direction but nothing here to keep you interested over all episodes. Worse than the series itself are all the reviews here obviously written by the same person, each of them saying the same thing using almost identical language ('Ooh, I hope there's a second season.') That shows desperation by the makers over what they realize is a substandard show.

Interesting But Lacking A Good Conclusion
suzannebateman2 March 2021
Warning: Spoilers
This was an interesting show from the very start with a good story line, but I was left feeling that things became too bizarre and a bit unbelievable in episode 8. Then at the end of that episode it sort of left you hanging with the inference that Helena would end up back at the institution. The imbedded doctor was restrained and unable to get the truth out, and then another doctor was taken out, meanwhile the original patient, Siri, is still out there to wreak havoc. Come on now, let's make it just a little believable!

Silly, unwatchable, childish; eight episodes for five minutes of intrigue

Worst ending ever
narsus197621 July 2019
Warning: Spoilers
Its really good, but please watch this only if you totally sure that there is will be no continue or when 2nd season will be announces. Because they used most cliche ending and i'm not sure - they do it for continue or because its basic locked-down clinic horror movies ending.

It's not worth the time...
tessanfalt18 August 2019
There are things that bother me from episode one already. There are so many obvious things that are questioned right from the start but never answered. There is a lot going on that is so obviously unlikely to happen. Don't watch this, it's not worth the time.

Dont watch it!
holmudd20 June 2019
This is one of the worst series I've ever watched. Bad directing, acting, script, plot and over dramatic music. The only living thing in the series that acts good is the dog.
