What to Know

Critics Consensus

Elegantly plated but over-seasoned with grit, Black Rabbit's unrelenting edginess can be off-putting but Jason Bateman and Jude Law's committed performances make for a satiating enough meal.

Every time I’d find myself drawn in by how well-presented the whole affair seemed, I’d be struck by a turn in the narrative, or an excess scene. Go to Full Review
Alan Sepinwall What's Alan Watching? (Ghost.io) Oct 7, 2025
You can see the outline of a series that more successfully blends The Bear with whatever crime show you prefer. The brothers, though, are such a drag that the rest of Black Rabbit can't overcome them. Go to Full Review

Black Rabbit is not a bad show. It’s even sometimes a good show, especially as the series deepens its core relationship in the back half of its eight-episode run. Go to Full Review
James Croot The Post NZ Jan 1, 2026
While much of Black Rabbit’s allure lies in its after-dark aesthetic and fractured narrative designed for maximum intrigue, it’s a trio of central performances that really draw you in. Go to Full Review

82/100
Intense, thrilling, and surprisingly strong from beginning to end, Black Rabbit is worth the chase all to get to an ending that reminds us just how good Jason Bateman, Jude Law, and Troy Kotsur can be. Go to Full Review

Dan D @F150Dan Sep 29, 2026 A lot of good acting by Bateman and Law, but a bad script wastes their talents. Overly long and gets worse as it goes on.. See more Pearl R @Pearl1013 Sep 23, 2026 The limited series kept me on my toes and I enjoyed watching it!【No Spoilers if you have watched the first episode.】 In the beginning, I couldn't imagine how owning a restaurant and a simple burglary could lead to such an interesting plot, but the series really managed to keep me seated to binge-watch the whole thing! The story was told well with twists and turns, and the charcters' backgrounds were interesting. It really made me hate certain characters and root for others. Vince's one-liners had me cracking up too. lol I would definitely recommend this series to anyone who is debating whether to watch it through! See more Hotma Fani H @RT55323325 Sep 12, 2026 Jude Law and Jason Bateman are the main reasons Black Rabbit is still worth sticking with. Their chemistry as two brothers who are both dealing with their own problems feels way more alive than most of the crime plot. Unfortunately, the series too often seems to think that being "dark and serious" automatically makes something good. Eight episodes feel a little too long, the pacing keeps hitting the brakes out of nowhere, and some of the subplots just make the story more cluttered without really adding any weight. Bateman shows a different side of himself, while Law has the kind of charisma that’s impossible to ignore. But their characters can be frustrating at times, not because they’re particularly complex, but because they keep making decisions that make you want to scream at the screen. It still has a strong atmosphere, an interesting family conflict, and a few genuinely tense moments that work. See more Laura M @Lauraxplaura Sep 6, 2026 The ending was sad. See more Zainab M @RT84753918 Aug 12, 2026 After getting through the first few episodes, I ended up binge-watching the rest. Excellent performances from Jason Bateman and Jude Law in Black Rabbit. See more Robert G @trextomatoe Aug 12, 2026 Loved this show. Bateman and Jude were amazing. I binged it in one day. Fantastic. See more Read all reviews
