Summary
Reviewers say 'Surface' garners mixed reviews for its mystery and thriller elements. Praise is directed towards the visual aesthetics, Gugu Mbatha-Raw's performance, and the intriguing storyline. However, criticisms highlight a predictable, slow script filled with clichés. Some find characters unlikable and the plot shallow. The show's portrayal of interracial relationships is divisive, with varied opinions on its authenticity. Pacing and series length are often criticized for dragging on too long. Despite these issues, many still find 'Surface' entertaining and recommend it.

This isn't terrible but also not great, and certainly not original. In fact, you'll probably have the story figured out within the first few minutes, but if you have nothing else to watch, I can think of a lot worse options out there (like anything on broadcast channels, For all Mankind, and Invasion comes to mind.)
What I do recommend on Apple is Severance, Black Bird, Defending Jacob, Foundation, See, Ted Lasso, Servant, The Morning Show, Prehistoric Planet..

I just finished the show and do hope for a season two. The story is a psychological mystery thriller and lives up to this throughout the season. It will have you guessing who is guilty and who is innocent and what are the motives behind everyone. There are lots of moving parts and a slow but steady build that left me wanting more. I really hope we get a season two as there are a lot of things left unknown and we the audience deserve to see this one through to the very end.
The girl who plays Sophie did a great job. I loved her in the Morning show and The Black Mirror so it was nice to see her getting this leading role. She deserves it and hope to see her in more things.

I thought the lead female and male where both excellent actors. Don't listen to all the crazies about this movie being woke. Not a clue what they are talking about. Unless you don't like a white man with a black woman. (We all know that's called something else...not woke) sad that a good show has crappy reviews. I enjoyed it. Especially since I didn't have to commit to a second season. It could have easily been a movie instead of a series though. It's worth the watch.
It's not a terrible series, but it's unoriginal. More style than substance, it's a glossy production with a shallow script. Gugu MR does her best, but her character fails to be that interesting. And no, having a black protagonist married to a white man is not "woke" or propaganda. If you think that in 2022 you need to go outside and observe reality.
There is literally no other reason to call this WOKE as this show doesn't touch any political or social issues even for a microsecond.
The show is actually a pretty impressive mix of drama and mystery sprinkled with incredible visuals and mindblowing cinematography.
It's a very quiet show that focuses more on the story than on other unrelated side characters. The background music complements and elevates the overall quality of the show. The acting from both the main actors is very impressive too.
The overall vibe of the show can be compared with big little lies and sharp objects (which is a compliment).
I have only watched two episodes so far. Excited for what the show has to offer in the future ones.
