Sep 14, 2017I truly wish I had not gone down this alley. I based my plan for this show on the early reviews and the strong cast. I now find it typical USA Network muddled trash. The only reason I give it 2 stars is Bill Pullman is a fine actor and the rest of the cast makes the great attempt. If you have not tried The Sinner yet my advice is avoid.

Jul 3, 2018Ridiculous. Imagine if the switched the genders of the detective and the woman.

Jan 14, 2019Boring drama, supersaturated with sex scenes. Probably would like it as an adolescent, with no erotic life.

It’s a show that resonates on the surface more than in any deeper well of mental thought, but there’s something effortlessly salacious and shocking about it that totally lives up to the likely page-turning nature of its source material.

The Sinner proceeds according to its own internal logic, and while I would quibble with the presentation of one or two bits of information in the first couple of episodes, there are no moments that feel egregiously contrived or unfair to the audience.

What’s left is an amiable and largely engaging murder mystery, gorgeously lensed and smartly paced but more notable for its control of mood and atmosphere than substance or character.
