Phillip Maciak The New Republic There's something wrong with Disclaimer. The show never gives us enough clues to solve the puzzle, but it does create a feeling that something important remains unsolved. Oct 25, 2024 Full Review Wenlei Ma The Nightly (AU) The performances are superb, the photography truly beautiful, the production design so inviting and Cuaron’s command of tone is always masterful. Oct 25, 2024 Full Review Inkoo Kang The New Yorker Alfonso Cuarón’s foray into television is a work of such vacuity that even Cate Blanchett can’t salvage it. Oct 21, 2024 Full Review Clotilde Chinnici The Indiependent With its multi-point-of-view narrative and incredibly destabilising twist, Disclaimer will keep the audience hooked to the screen until its very last episode, desperate to uncover the tangled web that is presented in front of us and learn the truth. Rated: 5/5 Jul 27, 2025 Full Review Narendra Banad Hindustan Times The cinematography credit is shared by longtime collaborator and Oscar winner Emmanuel ‘Chivo’ Lubezki (Children of Men, Gravity), and Bruno Delbonnel (Amélie, Inside Llewyn Davis), possibly the most superpowered visual team ever assembled in any medium. Jan 30, 2025 Full Review Frank J. Avella The Contending Disclaimer is one of the more erotically-charged shows to drop in recent years, giving Fellow Travelers a run for its sexy money,.. Partridge will be a new social media sex symbol for women and gay men. Rated: A Dec 19, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Yedidiah S An provocative series that depicts a successful and manipulative woman that is indirectly responsible for the accidental death of a young man that she supposedly has seduced. The grieving father of the boy decides to extract revenge many years later by publishing a novel and photographs of the seduction that she orchestrated. The vengeful father has crafted a wonderful destruction of her marital and professional reputation by the narrative of the novel and of course the published photographs. However, the narrative that the father has orchestrated is completely wrong contrary to the photos and novel. The woman is the silent victim who is saddled with a complete distortion of the facts. The series does present a provocative challenge to the meaning of "TRUTH" Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/10/25 Full Review S M Watched it for Kate but Kline and Cohen destroyed it. Bad actors, so fake. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/06/25 Full Review Bob A Cinematography, directing, acting and script all first rate! Kline, Blanchett superb in their respective roles. Cohen shows his dramatic chops as well! Need more shows like this Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/03/25 Full Review Anna W Sacha Baron Cohen, do everyone the biggest favor and retire. Idk how you ever ended up in this business but it's time to correct that mistake. Leave. Yesterday. He's somehow bad to look at AND untalented? So cringey. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/15/25 Full Review Dani G Always love the work of Cuaron and Blanchett. But still, it coulda been better Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/07/25 Full Review NASHVILLE I Disclaimer takes a bit to get warmed up, I'll admit. But once you have the gist of the situation you're hooked. Terrific plot, and pretty decent acting from Cohen. Everyone else is fine, but his multi-dimensional character was outstanding. The cinematography's washed out approach can take some of the juice out but overall Disclaimer's actually very well-layered; better than most mystery dramas. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/27/25 Full Review Read all reviews
