Bellevue isn’t trying to break the mold of a closed-ended mystery, but it does offer a riff on it that manages to be both cozily predictable and refreshingly contemporary. ... It presents its characters with texture and range; meaning that even when it missteps, it still finds a way to make you care. Read full review

You can keep “The Alienist” at arm’s length because it is set more than 100 years in the past. No such luck with “Bellevue.” The brutality, shock and outrage ring all too true. Read full review

It’s handsomely shot, competently directed and, when the writing allows, generally well acted. But it’s markedly derivative. ... What ended up onscreen is a half-sketched, formulaic character that Ms. Paquin can only occasionally make convincing. Read full review

Some civic sociology is advanced--Bellevue is depressed, a brewery offers a chance of recovery--but never really developed. There are things that please, most of which have to do with Paquin. Read full review

Bellevue plays like a watered-down version of “The Killing.” Read full review

The first episode is outstanding - yes, it does feel a bit like "The Killing", but it's not nearly as downtrodden and depressing as that show was. Paquiin is fantastic in this show. Yet another reason to dip into WGN American (after Outsiders...)

The series began slowly, picked up the pace for an episode or two, but became exceedingly convoluted by the end. The main characters ranged from peculiar to perverse. Often they were made to behave in ways that even remotely intelligent people would not behave. My wife stopped watchingThe series began slowly, picked up the pace for an episode or two, but became exceedingly convoluted by the end. The main characters ranged from peculiar to perverse. Often they were made to behave in ways that even remotely intelligent people would not behave. My wife stopped watching after the first episode and she was the smart one. I was groaning in disbelief and despair during the final episode.
And one minor beef, why did almost everything have to occur in the dark, making it difficult to discern?… Expand
