This twisty, time-traveling mystery produced by M. Night Shyamalan squeezes maximum moodiness and suspense out of its lush Southern setting and complex characters.
Both are set up skillfully in Caddo Lake, with a combination of handheld cameras dropping us into the middle of its characters' complicated lives and sweeping drone- and lake-level footage conveying a parallel, unsettling swampiness in their natural environment.
The storyline is gripping and the acting persuasive, although the resolution may leave you feeling that overlapping threads haven't been completely tied up.
