Digest more
Our Call: STREAM IT. The setting and unique law enforcement politics, along with solid performances by Bana, Neill, DeWitt and Santiago, make Untamed the kind of show you might turn on as a distraction instead of a show that requires close watching. But it’s an entertaining distraction, with just enough story to keep things moving.
Netflix’s Untamed opens with a woman’s body crashing into a climber’s rope line on El Capitan. That’s not a stretch of the imagination.
Kyle Turner (Bana) is an Investigative Services Branch (ISB) special agent at Yosemite National Park. It’s a federal position that sets him apart from his park ranger compatriots, including friend and mentor Paul (Sam Neill) and sarcastic Milch (William Smillie), who has no patience for Kyle’s trademark surliness.
Co-created by 'American Primeval' scribe Mark L. Smith, this six-episode thriller traces a murder investigation in the famous national park.
Netflix’s new miniseries, Untamed, has grabbed viewers' attention with its mysterious and realistic narrative about an unknown body discovered in the Yosemite National Park.
