What to Know

Critics Consensus

The Woman in White's campy convolutions can't quite sustain the intrigue it aspires to, but a game cast and pounding pace will satisfy those looking for a stylish -- if somewhat demanding -- whodunit.

Sam Wollaston Guardian Already Fiona Seres' period adaptation of the classic Victorian sensation novel, directed by Carl Tibbetts, is reverberating in the present day. Apr 11, 2019 Full Review Sonia Saraiya Vanity Fair What's so disturbing about the story is the sheer terror of its female protagonists' unknown future-how little understanding or control they have over their fates, in a world ruled by men. Oct 31, 2018 Full Review Erin Keane Salon.com A timely indictment... Oct 22, 2018 Full Review Matt Roush TV Insider Olivia Vinall is luminous in the dual role of unhappily betrothed heiress Laura Fairlie. Oct 22, 2018 Full Review Alexis Gunderson Paste Magazine This adaptation doesn't trust anyone-not itself, not the cast, not us in the audience-to understand that men can, as Marian Halcombe so affectingly stresses in that opening clip, crush women without that crushing necessarily having a sexual element. Rated: 5/10 Oct 22, 2018 Full Review Mark A. Perigard Boston Herald The performances are solid and ingratiating. Dance steals every scene he's in as a cranky hypochondriac who is bothered by everything. Rated: B Oct 22, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Orin D 45 years ago, in detective fiction course, I read Wilkie Colins' mystery novel. This adaption of that work is a well-paced and in every instance well acted. I found it extremely engaging from the first episode until the terrific ending. I definitely recommend giving it a try. The northern Irish setting where it was filed is gorgeous and filled w/ amazing period architecture. The villains are so convincing that I found them despicable & hoped they'd come to a bad end. The female leads are very attractive & I prayed for their deliverance. Watch it & be patient & you will get hooked. Orin P. Domenico Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/15/25 Full Review Jeff C As good a Victorian thriller as you could hope to see. Be patient as the story develops. The ending is with it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/21/22 Full Review Audience Member If one can deduce the thinly failed ending, it's hardly considered a mystery. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member While confusing at times, especially the blonde women, the plot plays out in an exacting fashion. REal hiss the villain stuff. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Dreadful. Despite decent acting from some of the cast, nothing can overcome this depressing tale. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member a classic mystery brought to live by a great cast enjoyable i absolutely love miniseries i wanted for each ep to release one by one on this but the great thing about them is you can binge them in a day Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
