"It's complex but often deadpan funny, and then deeply serious about family matters... it's like no thriller made in the past decade."

—

The Globe and Mail

"Bold, bewitching and slightly bonkers..."

—

The Telegraph

"Despite being filled with tangents and B-plot loop-the-loops, Barton has an incredible facility for keeping it all together. Any feeling of being momentarily lost is eventually rewarded with patience."

—

Rolling Stone

"It has scale and scope which I haven't seen in a long time..."

—

BBC

"Nothing here feels new or revelatory."

—

The Guardian

"A masterful, emotionally engrossing international thriller..."

—

Paste

"A filial drama crossed with a sprawling, sexy police thriller."

—

The New Yorker

"There is an artfulness to this drama - the split screen, the surprise shift to cartoon animation - that promises it won't be just another international crime tale."
