Anthony Horowitz’s thriller is reasonably entertaining. Go to Full Review

I don’t know that anything has given me greater or purer joy this year. Nine Bodies in a Mexican Morgue is unabashed nonsense, without a trace of cynicism or guile in a world stuffed to bursting with both. Go to Full Review
J. Kelly Nestruck Globe and Mail May 1
Bestselling suspense author Anthony Horowitz is behind the show -- and while his dialogue can sound a bit flat, his mystery craft mostly makes up for it. I’m hooked after two episodes. Go to Full Review
Alison Rowat The Herald (Scotland) Oct 9
Everything else about Nine Bodies is predictable, but in a good way. Go to Full Review
James Walton The Spectator Oct 2
Anthony Horowitz has acknowledged his debt to "the greatest, cleverest, most enjoyable mystery Agatha Christie ever wrote". His plan here is for "a modern version" -- and so far he’s making a predictably good job of it. Go to Full Review
Johnny Loftus Decider 04/07/2025
The murder mystery stuff is satisfactory, and could lead to unexpected reveals. But in Nine Bodies, it’s the suspicion and what’s left unsaid among its plane crash survivors that has us hanging with them in their jungle clearing. Go to Full Review

Dirk B. @NEgrab77 Mar 1 It’s so bad that it’s basically a good comedy. See more P M @RT65861789 Jan 3 I have to disagree with the bad reviews. It was a great watch. Only 6 episodes and each one had a decent story that kept you guessing. It was a cool ending that wrapped it all up. Recommended! See more Keith J @kwill7 Dec 7 Bad script, bad direction, BAD acting, plot full of holes and errors. I think they spent all the budget on the titles, which were the best bit. Waste of time. See more Patrick B @RT81840137 Nov 20 Great start. Horrible ending. The guy from Will and Grace is the big who done it mastermind killer?! What a shameful joke on the audience. Don't waste your time. See more Stephen D @sjhdearden Nov 12 I think there is general consensus amongst the audience that this dire. It actually gets even more contrived and unsatisfactory as it shuffles to its conclusion - when you wonder why you wasted your time. A real 'turkey'. See more Guillermo P @RT58663734 Nov 8 Simply awful. The writing is weak and painfully generic, and the characters keep falling into these forced one on one conversations that feel bland, artificial, and more like drama class exercises than anything a real person would say. It is one of the worst things I have seen on television in a very long time. Absolutely one to avoid. See more Read all reviews
