Sydney is really dumb, like really, really dumb. She continues to make stupid choices that put her in so much danger. It was impossible to like her character.
Tom was likeable in a weird way.
I love a classic Freida plot twist, and as much as I didn’t guess it - it wasn’t the jaw dropping shock that ‘Never Lie’ gave me. I just sort of was like “oh okay, weird”.
I guess I just couldn’t get past Sydney’s bad decision making.

What a fucking journey that was

Pretty run-of-the mill domestic thriller. I guessed the twist about halfway through. Didn’t love it, didn’t hate it
