Audience Reviews for The Alienist: Season 1
-
Nov 07, 2021One of the best detective thriller horror tv shows that I have ever seen.
-
Oct 15, 2021The book was better than this season, but it's definitely an awesome fast-paced mystery. Lots of action and great sense of place/time (duh, it's a historical drama/mystery).
-
Mar 05, 2021Absolutely sensational first season, loved every episode and was excited for more seasons, very disappointing that season 2 was so poor.
-
Feb 04, 2021At least "Freud" tried to be bold and different, this one is just looking nice, but all other aspects are so weak. There is no point in almost have of the scenes of each episode, just a way to fill 55 minutes of screen. Do not waist your time with this. Not sure how it got such a high score

Dec 05, 2020Starts off strong and intriguing, starts to drag around episodes 6-8, and then quickly picks up the pace with a satisfying ending. It is interesting to see the differences and similarities to how people thought about serial killers then and now. Some things we may never understand about human behavior. Finally, the way this series brought 1800s New York to life is quite a sight.

Nov 18, 2020I didnt think much to be honest, it was all a bit wooden. Laslo's accent was stilted and emotionless, whilst the story could've been thrilling and a bit scary, it was lacklustre and slow. It wasn't very clever, I didnt feel empathy for any of the characters and there was a lot of pseudo CSI stuff being pushed into the cracks. In fact I was hoping someone would come in and massacre the whole cast to put them out of their misery. I got the feeling they were trying to drag it out for as many episodes as possible. I watched 4 episodes, which was 2 more than it deserved.

Nov 15, 2020This show is an excellent period drama/crime mystery with a great plot and pace. It has a Jack the Ripper type of feel. The characters are interesting, and the casting is well done. Luke Evans is just fantastic in this show. Also glad to see the originality of having a unique and strong character like Sara Howard (Dakota Fanning) in the story.

Nov 07, 2020Exceptionally well made series!

Nov 06, 2020Good production values but boy it's dull. Daniel Bruhl is bland and mansplainy. Dakota Fanning is uptight and is seriously not interesting and Luke Evans is a poor choice of a leading man because there is no chemistry with Fanning...... In fact there's not much chemistry between any of them.
-
Nov 02, 2020Good, but constantly misses at being 'Great'. The story is good, but the machismo and misogynistic tempo of the Police and protagonists are too exaggerated. It seems to limit its reach, as a result... Well acted, and enjoyable, however.
