I thought it was great except for the flipping back and forth along the timeline. Frankly, I almost stopped watching after the third episode as I was completely lost on the plot sequence. They should have kept a straight timeline with some obvious, and announced, shifts.

It's like you have a narrator who is completely familiar with a story, frantically going back and forth in time, trying to explain it to people who have never heard it. I'm really surprised that Netflix would allow this as it really made the plot hard to follow.

This could / should have been presented in a much better way.

From memory, my gut suggestion would be to skip the first episode and then watch it at the end for reference.
