Debi Enker The Age (Australia) 09/20/2024
Everything in Critical Incident, from the set-up, through the pacey plotting to the character and relationship development and the resolution is inventive and thoughtfully considered. Go to Full Review Craig Mathieson The Age (Australia) 08/16/2024
3.5/5
While it has a propulsive plot that rarely abates, even when it perhaps occasionally should, this six-part limited series delivers what new talent should: a sense of the here and now. Go to Full Review Luke Buckmaster Guardian 08/16/2024
2/5
Critical Incident’s plotting feels more frustrating than suspenseful; I wanted to yell “just show us the damn incident!” Go to Full Review Anthony Morris ScreenHub 09/26/2024
4.5/5

Cheryle R @RT35481002 Apr 3 What kind of nonsence was that ending. They needed to end it not just leave plot points hanging. I would have liked it if they had wrapped it up but they did not See more hayley t @RT80698351 09/05/2024 It started slow but I actually enjoyed it. Good principal cast, well filmed and bingeworthy. See more Bec B @RT60484498 09/02/2024 6 hours of my life I’ll never get back. Had so much potential, but frustratingly didn’t deliver. See more John N @RT44955046 09/01/2024 Wasted potential. Good cast in principal roles, but secondary cast is weak, based on stereotypes. Basic story is a cut above typical police drama, but a joyless, painful slog. Worst of all, it ends abruptly, with no real payoff for the slog. Kept me thinking: Why am I watching this? How could I possibly recommend it? See more Andrei D @RT74856639 08/26/2024 Starts off abruptly but then delivers on the core ideas See more Read all reviews
