Ellen E Jones Independent (UK) 05/17/2019
This action-comedy caper was always based on the juxtaposition of ordinary characters and extraordinary circumstance. Go to Full Review
Ed Power Daily Telegraph (UK) 05/17/2019
4/5
Broad humour piled atop full-fat drama would surely have led The Wrong Mans to collapse under the weight of its own ridiculousness. Instead, it was a triumph, a fanfare of fights, chases and sly giggles that won you over with sheer boyish enthusiasm. Go to Full Review
Alex Hardy The Times (UK) 05/17/2019
3/5
As things stand, though, I like the ambition of The Wrong Mans better than I like the execution. Go to Full Review
Christopher Stevens Daily Mail (UK) 05/20/2019
5/5
It's a slapstick version of Mission Impossible, and nobody but [James] Corden could pull it off. Go to Full Review
David Butcher Radio Times 05/18/2019
All credit to writers/stars James Corden and Mathew Mathew Baynton. Go to Full Review
James Delingpole The Spectator 05/17/2019
What [The Wrong Mans] had was absolute conviction: in its script, in its impossible, yet weirdly credible storyline, in its performances, and in its clearly generous budget. Go to Full Review

bill f @BrokerBill 10/01/2024 By far the best thing I have seen on tv. Period. Even better than series one. The production and writing are superb. Great storyline and you find yourself rooting for the lead characters. The comedy is top notch and the moving ending is the icing on the cake. Fantastic! See more 06/27/2018 A movie-length more than worthy conclusion to the wild tale of Sam and Phil. I'd absolutely want much more if everything wasn't already wrapped up so snugly. See more 12/26/2014 So disappointing. Can't watch the second part! See more Read all reviews
