Cebalord Very best movie i ever watch
SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped
Bereamic Awesome Movie
Crwthod A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.
georgepark Daniel has been wrongly convicted (perhaps) of the murder of a 16 year-old girl, when he was age 18. Sent to death row by an ambitious DA, 20 years later his conviction is overturned because the DNA from the girl is from someone else. The DA, now a State Senator is determined to keep Daniel in prison, but there is not enough evidence. On his release, Daniel seems to be in shock. Everything around him is alien. He has no idea of modern technology and the way things work. He moves from scene to scene in a trance, speaking rarely and interacting oddly. The show is well acted and cast. Each new person has their own secrets and as the viewer watches everyone talks to each other, but they tell only half-truths, leaving the listeners misdirected. Some of this will come back over time to threaten to put Daniel back in prison. as actions progress it becomes clear that Daniel did not commit the original crime, but the (now) State Senator is determined to prove him guilty.the show is WELL worth the viewers time. The story of a young man, wrongly convicted, and his struggle to learn how to live a normal life.
wolffkristin Can you imagine living in a solitary box on Heath row for 19 years for something that you didn't do? Aden Young was awesome and play this part to a T. I was just kinda hoping for an arrest at the end, a definitive who done it tho I guess we pretty much know. Also I really pray that that final scene was real and not a dream sequence. He was so deserving of a happy ending.
muhammadjehanzaib This shows centers around Daniel Holden who was falsely accused of raping and murdering his girlfriend Hanna Dean. As a result he spent almost twenty year on death row and most of that period in solitary confinement. His sister Amantha Holden fights for him and eventually due to recent evidence he gets out of prison and that's how this season starts.Personally, I haven't seen a series which takes you through such a hard journey from losing everything until you have not a little bit of hope left. It has loss, expectations, fear, courage, family, hope, loneliness and everything you go through you everyday life. I got emotional at lot of scenes while watching the show and I could relate to the sadness and loneliness in the characters because it was presented in such a perfect way. I loved it because I could connect with it and I would recommend it for anyone who wants to be inspired I guess.
sadak7599 I watched this show just to know what happens finally with the main character, Daniel. Aden Young did a great job and his character is the only one with real interest. His deep voice, external calm showing a broken interior and his thinking are the only interesting things of this show. The problem I have with the main character is his permanent and unrealistic state of hallucination. He is like...stoned or dumb the entire show. The sheriff is other character with a lot of potential and latent badassness, but he is keep undeveloped. The rest of the characters are in the range between sad and boring to unlikable and unsympathetic. Overall, the show is slow, unrealistically sad and boring to hell. Episode after episode in which nothing happens, just uninteresting people talking very slowly about uninteresting things and being very sad and pathetic.Sometimes this sadness and slow pace may been taken as deepness and intensity, but are actually nothing. Not real deepness. Just average people being sad in a sad place where nothing happens. I think that the characters are sad as a way out of boredom. The only resource of the writers to maintain the interest in the show are the lack of new information and no advances in the plot. So, we know almost exactly the same about the characters and we are in the same status of the plot after 3 seasons than after 3rd episode. I think that it is because the plot have content for a movie or a miniseries of four episodes, not for a show of four seasons. The only way to make four seasons with this is not letting that things happens during the episodes.
