Season 1: Starts out intriguing, creates an interesting enigma, but gradually collapses under the characters’ strange and irrational behavior, and several plot holes. The last two episodes are told With a lot of too drawn-out scenes whichSeason 1: Starts out intriguing, creates an interesting enigma, but gradually collapses under the characters’ strange and irrational behavior, and several plot holes.

Not even Bill Pullman can save such manipulative scripting shot through with implausibilities. I barely made it through Season One and wish I hadn't. Torturous.

Jessica Biel is a master class producer, and this is her best acting role (Season 1) to date.

The first one or two episodes of each season are usually quite intriguing and suspensful. Then it rapidly devolves into some kind of long drawn, brooding nonsense littered with psychological mumbo jumbo or, laughably simplistic and clichédThe first one or two episodes of each season are usually quite intriguing and suspensful. Then it rapidly devolves into some kind of long drawn, brooding nonsense littered with psychological mumbo jumbo or, laughably simplistic and clichéd musings on Nietzschean philosophy as in season 3.
So points for Ep 1 and 2 and 0 for the rest.… Expand

A detective series. Ever read a good mystery book and wish it wasn't over? This series is so engaging when watching with family. The theories abound. Emotions are tugged. This is like a detective version of House. High praise indeed!

I really love the show. It's very moving and keeps you interested until the very last episode.Im not the biggest fan of Bill Pullman in some scenes but he does a decent job overall.

Fantastic show, dark, entertaining, clever. Season 1 and 2 differ quite a lot from 3 which is why (I assume) people give very mixed reviews to that one but I enjoyed all three of them.

This is more of a review of season 3, but first i'll just say season 1 was pretty good, had great moments, probably an 8. Season 2 was okay, more of a 7. The RT review page states The Sinner season 3 is about "toxic masculinity". That's cute.This is more of a review of season 3, but first i'll just say season 1 was pretty good, had great moments, probably an 8. Season 2 was okay, more of a 7. The RT review page states The Sinner season 3 is about "toxic masculinity". That's cute. What a simplistic and biased way to look at it. No, Season 3 is about death. Death, talking about, learning about, and dealing with death. And the existential crisis of one man, on to another, on to another. Death is something each and everyone of us will deal with throughout our lives, and most of the time we try to hide it away. Or find ways to pretend it's all ok. Or that it won't happen to us. THAT is what season 3 is about, and i think it's a riveting, well acted, well directed, and well written season. 10/10, great stuff.… Expand
