All Her Fault is fantastically well done. All the carefully planted seeds come to fruition. All the narrative cogs turn and interlock fast and seamlessly. You come for the terrifying premise and stay for the absolute pleasure.
-
The series juggles a lot without slowing down or losing momentum. Even as we ponder the who and why behind Milo’s kidnapping, the tension crackling and escalating between Marissa’s family, as well as her colleague and friend Colin (Jay Ellis), keeps us riveted.
-
All Her Fault is compulsively watchable, worthy of the type of binge that carves a dent into your couch cushions.
-
Like any mystery worth its salt, All Her Fault does eventually get to a point where we know everything there is to know, and exactly where to place our blame. Its touch of savvy is understanding how easily blame can be dropped on some people or deflected by others, and why we’re so eager to cast it in the first place.
-
“All My Fault” shines most as an adrenaline-filled psychological thriller full of jaw-dropping twists and turns. Its multiple storylines also add gambling, extortion, corruption and murder to the mix.
-
The themes in “All Her Fault” are orchestrated with precision. The first comes from the myriad ways the women in the show are blamed for any and everything. Of course, it helps that the cast has firepower.
-
There are many strong performances here; Elliott, Peña and Lillis are particularly good. There are weaker ones, too, partly as a function of the writing; a few characters remain one-dimensional. But the pacing is terrific, and the miniseries understands its genre well, deftly deploying the viewer’s own fluency in narrative conventions against them. “All her Fault” is a tense, entertaining watch.
-
Despite the increasingly convoluted ways that characters in "All Her Fault" mete out information, the emotional core of the series is extremely strong, bolstered by Snook's reliably excellent central performance as a mother desperate to find her beloved son.
-
An immediate win for the show is that it eliminates at least a couple of convoluted storylines from the source material. Still, All Her Fault, which was created by Lazarus and Suspicion writer Megan Gallagher, can’t resist giving in to certain trappings that make it frequently tedious. .... But as a character study of the three women and the pressures they’re under—whether internal or external—All Her Fault succeeds just enough to keep you invested.
-
The soapiest of TV affairs, its every twist and turn so outlandish that each surprise elicits a hearty chuckle.
-
These rich folk are hiding scandalous secrets – some that don’t make much sense upon closer inspection. That illogic is part of the guilty fun of “All Her Fault,” which provides a decent enough diversion along the lines of Netflix’s equally star-studded bit of domestic thriller ridiculousness “The Perfect Couple.”
