What to Know

Critics Consensus

Inside Man's ambitions are undercut by clunky and predictable plotting, although Stanley Tucci and David Tennant's performances are welcome compensations for viewers who enjoy twisty thrillers.

Craig Mathieson The Age (Australia) Recovered from the car crash that was The Time Traveler’s Wife, creator Steven Moffat crafts a bloody drama of desperate solutions that is more interested in the next twist than moral imperatives. Nov 30, 2022 Full Review Graeme Blundell The Australian It's superbly acted by a bunch of experienced actors who know just what kind of heightened style is required here, directed in immersive style by the accomplished McGuigan, and thoroughly enjoyable. Just hold that wine glass. Nov 23, 2022 Full Review Kristy Puchko Mashable Truly, the most frustrating thing about Inside Man is just that it ends so soon. Nov 19, 2022 Full Review Martin Carr Yahoo! Movies Inside Man is a slice of pitch dark drama, which gets beneath the skin of some complex ideas. Gifting actors Stanley Tucci and David Tennant an opportunity to explore some unpleasant areas of human behaviour. May 20, 2023 Full Review Charles Hartford But Why Tho? A Geek Community Inside Man Season 1 delivers a gripping tale that is well worth its short, four-hour runtime...The series pulls the viewer into its depths as it explores how far people will go when they are caught in the wrong place at the wrong time. Rated: 9.5/10 Jan 14, 2023 Full Review Javier Estrada El Mundo (Spain) A series that unsettles the viewer at all times and allows them to discuss what is right and what is wrong.

Giovanna T Todos são assassinos em potencial. Basta o motivo certo e o tempo certo. PS: que plot twist no final foi esse?! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/28/25 Full Review Shawn N I am so very surprised that an actor as stellar as David Tennant went along with this one. Stanley Tucci? Another great actor....but the characters in this are not likeable, situations make absolutely no sense and this felt like an absolute waste of time when the pain of watching this was over. This gets 0 stars in my book. Bad bad bad. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/28/25 Full Review Dallas M Awful. The father a member of the clergy accepts a questionable cd drive reluctantly from a troubled parishioner. Then when his son accidentally uses it and it is exposed to (a woman it is not clear right away the relationship), the 'father' feels compelled to confess that the cd is his to protect his son. Then the narrativce goes into a dramatic and ridiculous downturn where the woman falls down the stairs, and then the 'father' locks her in the basement. That's it. I couldn't watch any more of this ridiculous drama. If I could give it a minus 10 if I could. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/25/25 Full Review Ron K In the first 5 minutes you see where this show is going, it is a political nonsense check the box fest, besides of Stanley Tucci almost all actors are plane and dull with no feeling at all.. it is a shame because this could be a good show. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/28/25 Full Review Nicki C I absolutely loved this show!! Very well written, this show had me on the edge of my seat the entire time. Thrilling, exciting and definitely kept me guessing. 100% would recommend. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/07/25 Full Review Wendel L Direção: Bom Atuação: Bom Roteiro: Ok Caracterização: Ok Soundtrack: Ok Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/25 Full Review Read all reviews
