This adaptation of the enigmatic novel by Liane Moriarty is supremely watchable but flawed. Buoyed by some tremendous core performances but the plot wobbles often as the show leans far too heavily on the star power, sucking time away from Regina Hall's mesmerically volatile Carmel and making Ben & Jess seem hilariously superfluous in comparison to McCarthy, Kidman or Shannon. It's got some nice photography and it'll keep you guessing along the journey - but it doesn't particularly stick the landing.
