Critic Reviews for The Missing: Season 1
Audience Reviews for The Missing: Season 1

Oct 12, 2022This is a captivating series which a majority of audiences will like. But it had some flaws that could make lesser fans of mystery throw in the towel before the final episode. The biggest issue is how drawn out the series feels. A good cut would be useful by tightening up some of the character reactions and dialogue and improving the flow which ultimately would get us closer to the scant breadcrumbs provided by the filmmakers about the boy's disappearance which is what I personally cared about most. Also, I thought the two main actors (James Nesbitt and Francis O'Connor) overacted in the middle episodes which brought the series down for me somewhat. It is understandable the anger, frustration and sadness parents would have when their boy first goes missing and as they get closer to finding out the truth, but along the way things felt forced, particularly by Nesbitt, an actor I respect. Luckily, the brilliant Tchéky Karyo played the detective in the series and he helped make up for the series faults. To be honest, the levity of his character provided a much needed balance and was what kept me coming back for more. I wouldn't have been able to endure too much more of the heaviness Nesbitt kept doling out.

Sep 01, 2021Mildly entertaining but ruined by bad acting and bad script. Nothing ever makes sense her. For example, this scene in episode 2 where they find the drawing on the wall, this female detective keeps smirking right in front of the dad which is so crazy but also she says it must be a coincidence. The scarf AND the drawing yet you still think it's coincidence?? Nothing ever makes any sense.

Jul 08, 2021Quite gripping at first, as the plot and characters are established, but then it all fades away, back and forth between present and retrospect, but like there's a compulsion to make it complex, until it gets too convolted and it all nearly falls apart. Also some of the characters lose credibility and the acting performances vary steadily more in quality, with tendentious over acting or one-dimensionality character building. The total becomes divergent.

Mar 29, 2021Very underrated mystery series, good suspance from the beginning to the end. Not 5 stars cause of the last 10 minutes of the last episode...
-
Mar 28, 2021Compelling and haunting drama series with excellent performances manages to present a complex plot with many sub-plots as an intense personal drama and as a suspenseful thriller.

Dec 07, 2020Strong performances from Julien, the French detective, and also Frances O'Connor, but the usual ‘gormless open-mouthed confusion', alternating with ‘really angry' acting of James Nesbitt got really irritating after a couple of episodes. The plot was quite clever, although I found the willingness of every suspect to confess with little prompting, and for third parties to agree to help the investigation a little unlikely. I'll watch season 2, as there as some better actors in it.

May 15, 2020Well acted series and engrossing story line. Great!

May 01, 2020I had not watched this show until AFTER I watched Baptiste on PBS. I had to find out the backstory on Julian. Tchéky Karyo is an amazing actor. I was blown away by this whole series. I am suffering from post-series depression after watching both seasons. OUTSTANDING STORYTELLING!

Apr 16, 2020The ending was too vague and they made it look like it was perhaps continuing to another season when it wasn't.

Jun 11, 2019I really enjoyed the mystery of this season.
