Where The Perfect Couple goes wrong -- and where White Lotus succeeded -- is assuming its audience is watching. Instead, everything of note is spelled out so attention to the characters themselves feels secondary Go to Full Review Vinson Cunningham The New Yorker 10/08/2024
Kidman knowingly symbolizes this whole world of televisual interest in the rich. She’s got a face like one of the slinkier, sexier, more elusive species of big cat—a puma, say, or a lynx—one of those vague, quick, elegant eminences... Go to Full Review Judy Berman TIME Magazine 09/19/2024
You’d have to be a bigger snob than me to resist the brain-emptying pleasures of The Perfect Couple. Not every show has to be a masterpiece to be a good time, nor does being a great actor require career-long genuflection at the altar of cinema... Go to Full Review Marta Medina Pérez mundoCine Aug 15

It’s not perfect, but in a way, it’s irresistible. [Full Review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Kevin Fallon The Daily Beast Jun 11
The Perfect Couple is, like a beach read, a guarantee. The minute you press play on this series, you know what you’re going to get. And if you limit yourself to those expectations, it’s hard to imagine that you’ll have a bad time. Go to Full Review Lindsay Press Culturess Mar 19
Ultimately, The Perfect Couple is an entertaining short murder mystery that a viewer can enjoy in a day. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Jane S @Jane1980SM Feb 8 I found it hard to like Amelia, what a sullen, unhappy, unlikeable character, I can’t watch her. I just don’t care about her and her nosy ways. Just because you’re marrying someone doesn’t give you the right to pry into his family’s privacy and know everything about them and judge before even knowing any facts. I don’t know what benji sees in her, she’s rude and disrespectful in his parents house. The series drags on a bit, some of it was unnecessary. It could have been shorter. I spent a lot of time fast forwarding when I got to episode 3. See more Ben G. @Ben09387 Jan 6 This is a very good show. The mystery is strong and the cast is fantastic. Highly recommended by me! See more Madame X @RT38367201 Nov 21 Nicole Kidman, please stop accepting the same type of roles. Enough of the wealthy, powerful, ball-buster, icy, neurotic shrew roles. You are so much better than that. This series was no better than an 80s soap opera.
