REVIEWS
The Standard: ★★★★★
“Gary Oldman and his Slow Horses spooks are back and the action is better, faster and tougher than ever.
From the get go, this is nervy, visceral stuff but it still has heaps of fun letting all the players mercilessly banter each other into oblivion. The previous seasons set the bar high, but this is probably the best yet.”
Empire: ★★★★★
“It’s a compelling, lean and expertly constructed spy mystery, but the real joy of this show lies not in its sharp left-turns or elaborate rug-pulls, but rather its exemplary character work…
…A beautifully crafted prestige drama that would be more than worthy of a prime-time slot on BBC One. If you’ve ever toyed with a subscription to Apple’s streaming service, this should be reason enough to bite the bullet.”
The Telegraph: ★★★★★
“So brilliant you'd be silly not to get an Apple TV+ subscription.”
The Guardian:
“It’s wild how good Gary Oldman’s spy thriller is.
From its cast of acting royalty – Kristin Scott Thomas! – to the excellent dialogue, this drama just whizzes by. It’s a hugely fun, totally charming watch that gets everything right.
Each hour-long episode whirls by – there’s just the right number of characters turning up, eating an ice-cream and moaning about their job, to temper all the spy nonsense – and the grimy London setting looks, and this is a compliment, like an absolute shithole throughout. It’s just such fun.”
The Playlist:
“In an era in which streaming shows so often sag under the weight of episode orders that the writers can’t seem to fill, there’s something so refreshing about a program like “Slow Horses” that has nary a bit of fat on its six episodes. There’s never a point when “Slow Horses” sags, and yet it’s not an overheated action show at the same time. It allows for just the right balance of plot and character, often pushing the two forward at the same time.”
