Don't waste your time (on Prime) it's garbage. The reason it started out good was because it followed the original movie (basically) for the first episode.
Then it careened off into stupidland. The dialogue is terrible, written by teens who just discovered they can say the word "fuck" on Pay-per TV. The music
is annoying - some prick on a synth who thinks droning a low base note over everything adds to the dark mood. They think a 5 foot tall Jewish girl is menacing ala Anton Chigur. From there it gets increasingly ridiculous - the talents of William Hurt and even doofus Brandon Frasier are pretty much wasted.
It's just amateurish by any measure.
See the original movie with Robert Redford – great!

Don't be hooked in by the first episode. This is 90% filler and pointless backstory that could have been wrapped up in 2 hours.
