It's one of those shows that depends heavily on the zigzags in the narrative, but even knowing that it falls into the thriller/horror genre leads any fairly competent viewer to see much of it coming.
It's bold and brash, but it doesn't actually develop much past the pitch.
It's not horrible or hateable, but don't expect to be overwhelmed or gobsmacked. It's just a mediocre thriller story updated and stylized.
40 or so years ago, it might have been somewhat revolutionary, but it's pretty tame for our cynical age.

Have to agree with your review. Watched it last night, and there wasnt any real big surprise moments.
Honestly, the vibe was almost like an episode of Black Mirror, without the technology angle.
It was decent at best.
