Saw Bana in “The Dry” not too long ago in a similar role. He’s always pretty solid.

Huh, I thought he was just going to keep working on his cars

I'm the polar opposite. I love some Eric Bana and I've been sad he hasn't been in more stuff as of late. ?
Will check this out just for him.
Have you watched The Dry and the follow to Force of Nature? I have only watched The Dry so far and found myself wondering why he never became a star. I also read the books that The Dry and Force of Nature is based on and enjoyed those.

I haven’t watched it yet, not even a real trailer, just a little 20 second teaser…. But it reminded me of that “Search and Rescue park ranger horror stories” thread on Reddit from like 10 years ago. Are there any relatable stories, legends, or supernatural things going on, similar to that?

My wife and I are enjoying this a lot. With only two episodes left we are hoping for a season two.

Eric Bana is a fantastic actor. Munich, Troy and Black Hawk Down are well known but has anyone here besides me seen the movie Chopper?
It is based on the real life story of the Australian career criminal Mark "Chopper " Read. It is a tough watch due to the violence but one of the greatest acting performances I have ever seen by Bana. Good movie.

I don’t think it’s similar to that, right?
But man I did love that long S&R thread though. That shite was creepy as hell and a really cool/fun read. It would be cool if someone put something like that into a movie or series (and I don’t really count the Channel Zero season).

Decent show. The ending gets fairly obvious in the last two episodes but they close it out pretty well.
The LA cop that appears to be a terrible actress kind of grows on you. Me at least.

It was pretty good. Expectations for these type series are low bar tho.

Please, sir. There is no way you had the ending pegged. Watched this over the past two days taking care of my elderly mother. I don't subscribe to any TV services, so maybe I haven't seen a ton of series, but I enjoyed this enough. The most irritating things were Turner's tracking skills. In the middle of enumerable acres of a national park, he just happens upon important clues...a bracelet, spatter of blood, bullet in a tree. Yea...thats not gonna happen.

I thought he knew where to look for the bracelet because it fell off her dead wrist while suspended on El Capitan.

It wasn’t that difficult. Once it was clear there was a mysterious father and you looked back at Sam Neil trying to get Bana to leave the park, that did it.
And the tracking stuff… pretty sure she was bleeding everywhere and he followed foot prints. Not that unbelievable.

I just finished this one, decent show worth a watch.
Spoiler:
I figured early that either Maguire or Milch were the killer of Lucy. Has to be the white dude that is the bad guy.

Yup, it's entertaining as a well-written very formulaic soap opera with beautiful scenery, heavy emotional baggage, multiple unrelated deep secret reveals, satisfying (if ugly) conclusions to the various story lines, etc.
The biggest distraction for me was the park itself. Except for the wide shots of the major landmarks in Yosemite Valley, nothing else resembled Yosemite at all. The scenes in the woods were closer to rain forest than anything you would see in California. I thought it looked like Washington, but I looked it up and it was filmed in in BC so I was close. The vista shots that were meant to be away from the recognizable Valley were likewise not anything you'd see in California. I was surprised they even got permission to do commercial shooting in the Valley so it's not surprising that they didn't do additional shooting around interesting places like Hetch-Hetchy, Tuolumne Meadows, Olmstead Point, Tioga Pass, etc. So unfortunately the setting of Yosemite NP was irrelevant to the story, aside from the harrowing incident that starts the story.

It was entertaining, not great but certainly not a waste of time. Intriguing enough.

Yeah, exactly the same...
Anybody that has a functioning eyes and knows who Eric Bana is and knows what year it is would look at him and go "Thats Eric Bana"
Posted on 7/22/25 at 4:11 pm to finchmeister08
so did he accidentally stumble upon the Train Station or something?

I liked the show. Decent story, pretty setting, and very little DEI bullshite. What I didn't like was that it tried to be both Yellowstone and True Detective and it accomplished neither.
I give it a B though. Worth the watch.
