This series, loosely based Philip K. Dick's novel of the same name, takes a look at what the world might look like had the outcome of World War II turned out differently. In this dystopian scenario, the Axis powers won the war, leading to the United States being divided into three parts, an area controlled by the Japanese, a Nazi-controlled section, and a buffer zone between the two. Despite the oppression, a new hope emerges when films turn up that seem to show a different world. A woman believes the films contain the key to freedom and is determined to find their mysterious guardian.

4/5
Liberally adapted from the Philip K. Dick novel of the same name, the four seasons of this dystopian 2015 alternate history are a welcome addition to Netflix’s second-chance licensing list. Go to Full Review Tom Ryan The Age (Australia) Jul 16, 2020
It imagines cities every bit as breathtaking as those in that other Dick adaptation, 1982 film Blade Runner. Go to Full Review Melanie McFarland Salon.com Nov 21, 2019
So while on the one hand I commend showrunner Eric Overmyer and the producers for acknowledging the role African Americans play in every freedom fight this nation has been embroiled in - even ones in fictional, "what if" histories - thanks but no thanks. Go to Full Review Kylie Klein-Nixon The Post NZ Apr 13, 2020
It manages to fuse fantasy, history and sci-fi in one nerve-jangling, action-packed adventure. Go to Full Review Ricardo De Querol El Pais (Spain) Feb 6, 2020
The series has a good starting point, makes unconvincing turns, but have good characters, on the edge of good and evil. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Kevin Yeoman Screen Rant Jan 27, 2020
Though it's questionable whether the circuitous journey makes the destination worthwhile, The Man in the High Castle nevertheless builds toward a fascinating finale. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

J P @NotZeppoMarx Apr 21, 2026 Seasons 1 and 2 were excellent. Season 3 it jumped the shark and went off the rails. I hoped Season 4 would regain lost traction, but instead it became this weird, woke, DEI Trainwreck of a dumpster fire. If I could give zero stars I would. So disappointing after the promises of Seasons 1 and 2. See more Michael T @RT29201627 Feb 22, 2026 Season 1 & 2 were absolutely fantastic. Season 3 began to fall off the rails but was ok, season 4 was dog shit. Turned into woke nonsense that didn’t fit with the narrative See more Wilbour B @RT23488945 Nov 22, 2025 such a peak series right here folks See more An V @Anuria Sep 13, 2025 Thrilling! The suspense is killing me in episode 2. This series is well cast, good acting performance and compelling story. I really binged all seasons and I'm excited where the story goes next and where it al will lead up to. See more CHANSON C @RT59549653 May 30, 2025 Loved all the seasons, agree with some that the second season was my least favorite. But not by far. Season 4, while it loses some of the most interesting characters it still intrigued me. It happens with great shows. There are many reviewers who seem very turned off with the 4th seasons African American perspective and having their own resistance. Some of them seem to have missed the point entirely. Each season portrayed brutal treatment towards many varieties of people under the reich, by the Japanese, and even in ALT worlds (America as we know it), showcasing unique hardships and bigotry. It also portrayed bravery and goodness and blurred lines for pro and antagonist. I applaud the show for giving them a story. While the ending was rushed it felt complete. The entire series rang loud like a warning of devastating consequences for countries who fall under dictatorship and reminder that in the current US climate we need to hold on to democracy for dear life. Overall it was a cinematic, intelligent and gorgeous sci-fi, I was mesmerized. Keep an open mind and binge this show See more Frans B @FransB Mar 22, 2025 Story still develops and grows. Amazing that the production team found a way to bring some closure to so many elements and with so much finesse. Great show all in all See more Read all reviews
