What to Know

Critics Consensus

Severely lacking narrative momentum, this latest eat-the-rich caper only manages to strand its audience at sea with Malice.

Not a Must Watch
The bigger problem though, is that there is absolutely no sense of suspense. I never felt on the edge of my seat and there was never any sense of foreboding. Go to Full Review Randy Myers San Jose Mercury News Nov 20
2.5/4
Still, this six-episode series, while being essentially indistinguishable from so many others of its ilk, goes above its own pay grade when Jamie starts smelling a rat likely living in his posh London digs now. That’s when the series kicks into high gear. Go to Full Review Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times Nov 20
Since it’s clear from the title what sort of show this is, the mind goes to a number of reasonable suppositions, and though the particulars are saved for the finale, the generalities are made clear enough early on. Go to Full Review James Delingpole The Spectator Jan 2
I’m halfway through and am dearly hoping that I might bump into someone at a party who will blurt out all the plot details and spare me the misery of having to sit it out to the bitter end. Go to Full Review Neely Swanson Beverly Hills Courier Dec 20
I prefer my thrillers a bit less obvious. Go to Full Review Grant Hermanns Screen Rant Nov 25
8/10
Led by four-time Emmy nominee David Duchovny as Jamie and Jungle Cruise's Jack Whitehall as Adam, Malice proves to be one of the most effective takes on the family infiltrator genre yet, and that's largely down to just how much of a slow burn it is. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

nathan G @gussave 6d from my point of view I don’t understand the bad reviews. I don’t think it was predictable, I think Whitehall and others involved give good performances. An enjoyable short series. See more Hunt G @HuntGod Mar 5 Was ok, sort of wanted everyone to die. Honestly my biggest problem was the number of animals he killed. See more Derek L. @D-Rock-J Feb 12 What an utterly unsatisfying piece of garbage… I sat through this hoping the “bad guy” causing all of the strife and trouble for the family would get his comeuppance in the end… instead he walks away like he’s the hero of this story… that was roughly 6 hours I wish I had back… 👎👎 Garbage… See more Barbara F @BabsF. Jan 12 Mostly good story line. Great acting. But the ending was stupid and unsatisfying. That's assuming the end of season 1 remains the end. If there was a season 2 and they tie up the loose end, then it could go to a higher rating. See more Jo L @Zepster13 Jan 5 I can see this got some ordinary reviews, but Jack Whitehall was super creepy and was actually very good in this. Ending wasn’t expected either See more Greesh S @Greesh0412 Jan 4 One of the worst actors , Jack Whitehall drags this down with his lack of role acting !! This could have been a great series.
