Dan Einav Financial Times Dope Girls is often intoxicating but not quite strong enough to get you hooked. Rated: 3/5 Feb 26, 2025 Full Review Anita Singh Daily Telegraph (UK) Dope Girls has the nerve to say there are more interesting female stories to tell. Rated: 3/5 Feb 25, 2025 Full Review Rebecca Nicholson Guardian All of this creates a hectic, sometimes fussy scramble. But Dope Girls is in no way a bad series. Its ambition is entertaining, and it is hard to get bored, especially when the crime really gets going. Rated: 3/5 Feb 24, 2025 Full Review Janet A. Leigh Digital Spy If we really boil things down to what's most intriguing about this story, we must circle back to the women and the relationships they have with themselves Rated: 5/5 Mar 6, 2025 Full Review Barbara Ellen Observer (UK) Dope Girls is scuppered repeatedly by grating production flourishes and overcooked symbolism. But the atmosphere is less Steven Knight, more Sarah Waters meets Angela Carter: left-field, dreamlike, female-centric, wild. Rated: 3/5 Mar 3, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews

Bill G Thoroughly enjoyed Dope Girls. Post 1914-18 wartime London must have seen an explosive awakening after so much carnage. The excellent Geraldine James plays a nightclub owner dodging between an Italian stand-over family and a corrupt policeman while still managing to count the proceeds behind the bar counter. Very entertaining. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/10/25 Full Review Andrew W Stylish, thrilling and dazzling in equal measure. Great to see a gangster flick with women at the forefront, vying for a piece of the action in a violent but boisterous post-war London. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/25/25 Full Review Debbra W It is great fun and wonderful to watch a female story! I hope there is a season 2 Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/10/25 Full Review Andrei D Has ideas and actors but cannot make them cohere into something actually engaging Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/26/25 Full Review Marius G Totally hooked from episode 1. I'm halfway through the second episode and I don't want it to finish. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/03/25 Full Review Read all reviews
