Srijoni Rudra Digital Mafia Talkies Jul 26
Considering the kind of ‘content’ that Netflix usually churns out, Sara: Woman in the Shadows is definitely watchable. The plot is quite intriguing; the main character is worth rooting for; and the supporting characters are equally interesting. Go to Full Review John Serba Decider Jun 12
"Sara" is most alive when Gerini and Saponangelo share the screen – their line readings are charged with a rich, deep vein of subtext implying past and present tensions and alliances. Go to Full Review Juan Pablo Russo EscribiendoCine Jun 9
7/10
Unlike traditional spy thrillers, this series abandons the splendour. There are no chases, no stylized action scenes. The power lies in its minimal gestures...[Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Dustin Rowles Pajiba Jun 6
It’s a drag. It’s like watching a Bourne film with all the action stripped out, assuming you’re just here for the plot. There are plenty of twists, but none are remotely compelling. Go to Full Review Charles Hartford But Why Tho? A Geek Community Jun 5
6/10
Despite having a largely forgettable cast, the narrative strengths and solid presentation can make up for it to a point, providing a compelling story for those who are interested. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Grayson S @Gs8628 Nov 26 The main character in this show is just so annoying. Strutting around like she is too cool to be around regular people and only has one expression that can best be described as a resting bf See more Robert S @rodash Jun 15 Terrific first episode. I suggest skipping the rest as the plot becomes too convoluted and insufficiently involving. See more bob c Jun 8 It’s another: special ops oldie comes out of retirement to avenge something or other with special powers revived. This is: oldie ugly Sheila, Italian dubbed type, can read lips, avenging dead son. Boring. See more Read all reviews
