What to Know

Critics Consensus

Bathed in opulent black and white with a reptilian Andrew Scott holding the screen hostage, Steven Zaillian's sumptuous reinterpretation of Ripley draws fresh blood from Patricia Highsmith's insidious social climber.

Peter Travers ABC News 04/26/2024
Andrew Scott excels as a ccn man who makes life hell for Dakota Fanning and Johnny Flynn in Steve Zaillian’s partly exhilarating, partly exasperating slow burn of a series (it’s eight hours) that builds tremendous suspense as evil rots in the Italian sun.

It’s a thoroughly entertaining game. If not a little unsettling. Go to Full Review Craig Mathieson The Age (Australia) 04/18/2024
There are many reasons to watch this exquisite neo-noir thriller, but it’s worth highlighting just how remarkable Andrew Scott’s performance is as Tom Ripley. Go to Full Review Carlos Bonfil La Jornada Mar 5
...a miniseries that stands out for its original and daring take on a suspense saga that still retains a surprisingly vital energy today. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Jen Shieff New Zealand Herald Jan 9
5/5
Robert Elswit’s exquisite black-and-white cinematography makes every scene worth watching. Shots of Atrani, Rome and Venice belong in an art gallery. Go to Full Review Abe Friedtanzer Awards Buzz 07/27/2024
8/10
This story has been brought to the screen before, but this iteration feels fresh and alluring, just charming and unnerving enough to demand attention and leave a lasting impression. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Ted B. @Movieaddicted 1h 3.5 stars; Very clever, but a little too long. The series was eight episodes long, but could easily been completed in four. The mystery plot was tight and clever, but too much of the movie was spent as a travelogue around Italy and Sicily. Andrew Scott stole the show with a masterful performance. See more E H Oct 17 Italy and the cinematography are perhaps the biggest stars here. Visually it's absolutely beautiful. Although Andrew Scott also goes super deep on the quiet, pleasant, polite sociopath. See more Alexander L. @serbiancowboy Oct 13 Unbelievable cinematography See more Ommehsalma P Oct 6 ดูแล้วเจ็บหัวเลย โขกๆๆๆ See more Kasparius T Oct 6 A true delight to watch, from end to end. Lavish monochrome photography, eye for detail and a new look at the Ripley material. I highly recommend this show to anyone interested in noir and crime stories. Give it some time to breathe and develop all its nuances, and enjoy! See more Emerald E Sep 2 I honestly cannot believe I watched this whole series. I would rather watch paint dry next time. So so so boring. I hated every second of it. The best part of it was finishing it and knowing I’ll never have to watch that yawn fest again 0 stars See more Read all reviews
