Simonds manages to craft a fresh and unusual story with which to fill in the parameters of the series’ framework. Read full review

The exploration is carefully laid out so each twist is effectively teased, and it’s also made to be a good time, even when it gets dark. The cast of likable actors helps out on that front, and Letts, in particular, stands out early on as a good ol’ boy who’s almost too well-meaning to be trusted. Read full review

If the first few episodes are any indication, this is yet another disturbing/thought-provoking mystery worth unraveling. Read full review

The plot twists are absurd, but the fine cast shimmers. [3 Aug 2018, p.53]

[Bill Pullman as Detective Harry Ambrose is] not a great performance, but with its introductory quirks somewhat reduced, it's a sturdy and inquisitive one, allowing the new figures in the story to attract his attention and that of the viewers. Paul is comparably meant to be more solid than exciting. ... Coon is perfectly enigmatic, not quite the season's villain and yet utterly unsettling. Read full review

Some of the storytelling feels less refined than last year--people often sound like they’re over-explaining everything or verbalizing every question flitting through their minds when more subtlety would make for more effective drama--but the cast is again strong enough that The Sinner could again be an addictive summer distraction right when we need it.

While this new batch of episodes isn’t exactly a laugh riot, it’s weirder than its predecessor, and not just because Henig has an unnerving, wide-eyed stillness that serves the early episodes well. Read full review

Más enredada y entreverada que la primera, múltiples historias que sucedieron en un mismo lugar, una actuación impecable del elenco y un guión que alcanza su máximo esplendor a mitad de temporada. Sin duda para mi mejoro la formula de la 1 era temporada, altamente recomendable.
