Roxana Hadadi New York Magazine/Vulture Watching Resurrection is, miraculously, like stepping into a time machine back to the early days of Dexter, when it was slyly funny and had a firm grasp on its storytelling. Jul 30, 2025 Full Review Wenlei Ma The Nightly (AU) Watching Dexter prowl around New York City is far more compelling than him being miserable in the woods. Jul 28, 2025 Full Review David Bianculli NPR The narrative is as interwoven and complicated as a DNA strand, and relies on the acceptance of quite a few major coincidences -- but it all works. Dexter is back, and Michael C. Hall is better than ever. Jul 25, 2025 Full Review EJ Moreno EJ Moreno The show of the summer: cool, nostalgic, and a killer good time. Aug 1, 2025 Full Review Alex Maidy JoBlo's Movie Network Dexter: Resurrection is highly enjoyable and hopefully sticks the landing, but based on the first four episodes, this will make fans of the series very happy. Rated: 7/10 Aug 1, 2025 Full Review Marcelo Meza EscribiendoCine The reboot is traumatic and the plot is often chaotic, but it leaves us with anticipation.
