Being a big Tim Roth fan I decided to check out Tin Star. You're right, the scenery was amazing, the acting well done but for me the plot was not superb. It was different, that's for sure and I did like that about it, but I was really unhappy with the ending. I won't spoil for others, but by the end I felt like the whole story just went off a cliff. I definitely don't need a cheery ending to like a series/movie but I guess I wanted a little more before the credits rolled. (I know that sounds so vague, but as I said I can't really explain without giving too much away)
Genevieve O'Reilly who played the wife was also one of the leads in Glitch, which was interesting.
Edit to add--I just did some reading on this series and see it has been renewed for a second season, so possibly it did not end the way I thought it did. So, I may have to revise my thoughts on it after all. I will definitely look for the next season to see how it goes.
Also wanted to add that Christopher Heyerdahl who plays a villain (again--see Hell on Wheels) is really excellent as a baddie. SO sinister, he can really underplay evil in such a creepy way)
