Dead-girl tropes brush up against perspectives on privilege and race in Leila Gerstein’s adaptation of Alexis Schaitkin’s 2020 novel, but it’s an awkward fit and slow-paced. Perseverance is required. Go to Full Review Katie Rice London Evening Standard 06/07/2023
2/5
The storylines – which flit between the past and the present day – feel sluggish, padded out with excessive timelines and perspectives. Go to Full Review Lucy Mangan Guardian 06/07/2023
3/5
Although all the actors do as much as they can with the material they are given, there is no escaping the clunkiness of the script. Go to Full Review Emma Clark-Dow The Post NZ 06/20/2023
Saint X is the perfect psychological thriller for crime junkies. Go to Full Review Neely Swanson Beverly Hills Courier 05/05/2023
Somewhat tedious in its portentousness, it follows the cliché that it’s not who you think it is. But then it never is, is it? Go to Full Review Allyson Johnson But Why Tho? 04/27/2023
4/10
Saint X is filler. It’s the type of show you watch when you need background noise and all the other true crime dramas have somehow been deleted. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Laura H. @RT36800669 Apr 29 Enjoyable show. The actors were great and to it was a haunting tale of what happens to those left behind after a tragedy. See more Yaas T @Yaaaaaas Jan 15 Absolute must-see! Ignore those critics that have no depth nor appreciation for the uniqueness and emotions conveyed by this masterpiece… will be thinking about it for a while. The jumps between present and past add so much substance to the storytelling. One of my favorite shows of these past few years!!! Highly recommend.. stay focused watch it piece by piece See more Jo J @RT11396274 04/20/2025 Please ignore these so called critics Pulling it down I always go off the audience and rightly so, loved this show had me in tears! Not what I expected in a good way, definitely worth watching. See more Adel Z @RT23750404 01/06/2025 Making a complaint then deleting my account for constantly deleting my reviews. See more Normal People Scare Me B @RT33108073 09/23/2024 I think it was, an awesome series… and season… See more pete l @peteflix 11/27/2023 watched this TWICE already in just 3 weeks...and enjoyed it very much BOTH times. When you know all the answers and watch it again, its almost a completely different experience. The acting is superb, I think all of the main actors were just terrific, but the 3 leads were exceptional, Go-go, Edwin, Emily... I'm sorry this isnt getting more recognition because it was some, if not THE , best TV I watched this year.. See more Read all reviews
