1/5
Perhaps Pine Gap's crowning achievement is its message that even places that seem conceptually exciting - like spy bases - can in fact be extremely boring. Go to Full Review
Helen Razer The Daily Review/Crikey 03/14/2019
Exposition about the ANZUS treaty in episode one sounds like it was written as a Wikipedia entry and it really is so bad, I think even Noam Chomsky would laugh. Go to Full Review
Joel Keller Decider 01/07/2019
Stream it, because we're hoping some of the side storylines, like one about a local benefactor improving the nearby town despite his connections, and others, bear fruit. Go to Full Review
Genevieve Burgess Pajiba 01/07/2019
If you're looking for a relatively low-stakes political thriller where you worry more about personal relationships than who's got how many bullets, this is a good show for you. Go to Full Review

David M @Woodhacker Dec 24 Compelling thriller spy drama. Good cast. Had to watch until completed all 6 episodes. See more Bart v 01/03/2025 I don't know exactly why I watched almost the complete show... but... at some point the camera angles annoyed me so much that I didn't want to see the last 20 minutes anymore. I can't believe this got a budget at all... It is as if Pine Gap is the main Character.. Empty and boring. See more Mike B 10/15/2024 worst series booooring See more Scott B 06/16/2024 I like the fact it was shot on location in and around Alice Springs, it even seems Pine Gap may have let them on the facility for some local shots. The story was interesting and intriguing, but the writing and acting could have been a lot better. Listening to the A-Team squabble over foreign policy differences when the action is hitting the fan is pretty unrealistic. I don't think the real life operatives are distracted by side arguments over personal politics when a missile is launched and about to blow something up. I felt like I was being lectured about history and human life values by the screen writers. That was cheesy. But all in all it is worth watching it if you can look past that. Too bad there isn't a follow up season to see what happens next. Seems like they planned on it but it didn't get the ok to go ahead See more Polina G 05/13/2024 Two episodes in and I am enjoying it SOO much! Highly recommend. See more BlackCell 02/27/2024 Started an account just to comment on this show. A sleeper hit that is light years more accurate than most people will ever know. It's a little slow and a little dry at times, but I'm honestly surprised they were able to make this. This thing's about as close to real life as it gets. It's a slow burn, but it's worth it. Really hope they make more seasons. Best International Espionage Thriller I've seen in ages. See more Read all reviews
