David G @Irishkeagan 3d Gave up after the second episode. It feels very cliched and predictable - as if the writers threw a plot together combining random ideas from other films and stories. See more chad D. @Chaddie 3d I really REALLY wanted to like this once it got started, pretty good writing and enough to be intriguing, but it just got pointless by the end, I wouldn’t watch it if I knew that going in, although not an absolute time waste so 2 stars See more Marco L @decatur555 Nov 23 (CASTELLANO) Incontrolables tiene todos los ingredientes para enganchar: un misterio inquietante, un tono sombrío y un reparto sólido encabezado por una magnífica Toni Collette, que vuelve a demostrar que puede sostener cualquier historia con su sola presencia. La serie sabe crear atmósfera y personajes interesantes, logrando atrapar desde el primer episodio. El problema aparece cuando la trama, que en un inicio promete tensión y giros sorprendentes, se alarga más de lo necesario. La sensación de que estiraron la historia para llenar ocho horas es evidente, y eso resta intensidad a un relato que hubiera funcionado mejor con menos capítulos. Aun así, la narrativa mantiene el interés gracias al carisma de su elenco y a un suspense que, aunque irregular, cumple en los momentos clave. Visualmente se nota el cuidado de la producción, y el ambiente extraño de la comunidad que retrata recuerda a clásicos del thriller psicológico. Hay ecos de The Wicker Man o incluso de Stranger Things, pero sin llegar a la misma contundencia. En definitiva, Incontrolables es un thriller efectivo, con aciertos claros en el apartado actoral y en su atmósfera, pero también con un exceso de metraje que impide que brille como podría. Una serie disfrutable, aunque con la sensación de que con un poco menos hubiera sido mucho más. (ENGLISH) Wayward has all the ingredients to hook viewers: an unsettling mystery, a dark atmosphere, and a strong cast led by the brilliant Toni Collette, who once again proves she can carry any story on her own. The series knows how to build atmosphere and interesting characters, drawing you in from the very first episode. The problem comes when the plot, which initially promises tension and surprising twists, stretches longer than necessary. The sense that the story was extended to fill eight hours is clear, and that takes away some of the intensity. Still, the narrative keeps the audience engaged thanks to its charismatic cast and suspense that, while uneven, delivers at key moments. Visually, the production shows great care, and the strange community setting recalls psychological thrillers like The Wicker Man or even Stranger Things, though without the same punch. In the end, Wayward is an effective thriller, with clear strengths in acting and atmosphere, but weighed down by excessive length. A show worth watching, but one that could have been much more with a tighter approach. See more Jeff C Nov 23 Extremely cringeworthy See more Luke S Nov 23 Creepy and King enough to be entertaining. See more Joan D Nov 19 Starts well. Disintegrates into pretentious nonsense. The writer clearly didn’t know what to do at the end and it’s so bad it’s just embarrassing. How the heck did Toni Collette end up in this mess? See more Read all reviews
