4/5
Talk about revenge being a dish best served cold. Go to Full Review
John Doyle Globe and Mail 06/08/2020
It's a good mystery, a mood piece beautifully performed and strikingly made, with great sensitivity to what the cold landscape harbours and reveals. It's quiet, hushed, letting the landscape articulate its wintry disposition. Go to Full Review

The whole thing was so chilly that it left me craving a show that is the absolute opposite of this in every way: Death in Paradise. Go to Full Review

Few words were spoken and breaths were held. Cool snowshoes and snowmobiles were conspicuously placed... Kudos to director Nathan Morlando and director of cinematography Steve Cosens for so beautifully framing the fate of our two heroes at the end. Go to Full Review
Euan Ferguson Observer (UK) 06/08/2020
It is therefore wonderful, and hooks, if slowly, from the outset. This series looks set to echo, a little late admittedly, the birth of Scandi noir. Go to Full Review

Andrei D @RT74856639 04/28/2024 Feels a little rushed and somewhat forced See more 08/28/2020 Excellent series.. Billy Campbell and Karine Vanasse are both great in the lead roles. See more r 9 @RT00952237 06/18/2020 Another fantastic season of 'Cardinal' - a great way to end an outstanding series! Billy Campbell and Karine Vanasse, just like in S1-3, are utterly brilliant. They both add so much to the roles of John and Lise, nailing everything that is asked of them. The rest of the cast all do very fine jobs too, though it is Campbell and Vanasse who are definitely the pick of the bunch. Yet again the show looks beautiful, the cinematography and editing is top notch. The writing and dialogue is also nicely crafted. I don't have any noteworthy complaints with S4. I don't love the direction they take John and Lise's personal lives, but it still makes for riveting content and it all makes sense - I just would've took a different route personally. Sad to see the show go, but excellent to see it exit on high grounds. See more 06/14/2020 Excellent, shame it's the end of the series See more 06/10/2020 I think this is an a standing series and I am sad that series 4 is the last See more 05/28/2020 what a way to end a series. fulfilling yet somehow leaves you wishing there was more to come after the 4th season.
