Surface isn't deep enough for a talent like Gugu Mbatha-Raw
has the components of a titillating thriller: a sultry love triangle, an erratic criminal, weighty hidden secrets, financial troubles, and a central figure reclaiming her lost identity. But the final product is a massively disappointing slow burn. The crawling pace would’ve been worthwhile if the show knew where to take its suspense, butoffers neither eroticism nor an edge-of-the-seat mystery.
Unfortunately,: It relies too heavily on its star’s expressions to convey harrowing circumstances. Brace yourself for numerous Elisabeth Moss-style close ups, or shots of Mbatha-Raw running through the city looking bewildered. Zooming in on her face while blurring out the background looks cool but becomes tiresome when it’s repeated ad nauseam.The show also suffers from some mundane writing, with dialogue that’s expository and unvarying, and cliffhangers that lack exciting hooks.
