City of Shadows is a solid crime show. Go to Full Review Pramit Chatterjee Digital Mafia Talkies 3d
3/5
The murder mystery is decent; don’t expect to be wowed and you’ll be fine. The anti-capitalist messaging is alright. The visual storytelling is okay-ish. The performances are splendid across the board. Go to Full Review Joel Keller Decider 3d
City Of Shadows goes into that large middle category of shows, ones that are decent enough but don’t distinguish themselves by offering viewers much that they haven’t seen a number of times before. Go to Full Review Jonathon Wilson Ready Steady Cut 4d
3.5/5
Well-produced, paced, and performed, City of Shadows has the usual seal of quality of Spanish Netflix productions and the typical touchstones of the genre, which helps to keep it engaging, if not necessarily to stand out. Go to Full Review Natalia Marcos El Pais (Spain) 4d
Darkness, shadows, and pain permeate a series with a strong personality that, precisely because of this, may turn anyone seeking lighthearted entertainment. City of Shadows is something else entirely, for better and for worse. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Nick S 1d The development of the story was very slow and it’s plot difficult to believe. There was opportunity for the main characters to bond more intimately but nothing occured and the outcome of the crime detection was predictable. Generally, this was hard work to watch.
