Hotel night porter Pine is contacted by an intelligence operative who asks for his assistance to spy on international businessman Richard Roper. The entrepreneur is believed to have forged a criminal alliance between the secret arms trade and the intelligence community, prompting the need for surveillance. Pine attempts to infiltrate Roper's inner circle by becoming a felon himself, while keeping his mission a secret from his hotel colleagues and girlfriend.

It hits all the right beats, from knotty departmental drama to basic cable erotica, but it does so without much friction or sense of fun. Go to Full Review
Wenlei Ma The Nightly (AU) Jan 27
The Night Manager season two is a show of two halves, cleaved by a big twist at the end of the third episode which changes the energy of the series. If you find the first few chapters a little dulled, just wait until that reveal. Go to Full Review
Peter Travers The Travers Take Jan 23
3/4
The spy game heats up with Tom Hiddleston and Olivia Colman back in action and a new villain (Diego Calva) to spark political and sexual intrigue. That three-way dance with Hiddleston, Calva and Camila Morrone generates enough sizzle to singe your screen Go to Full Review
James Delingpole The Spectator 1d
Season two is much more of a generic thriller than its predecessor. Also -- perhaps he was like this before, but I don’t remember it -- Tom Hiddleston’s character Jonathan Pine is pretty unappealing. Go to Full Review
Dustin Rowles Pajiba Feb 5
It is another six episodes of superb performances, meticulous spycraft, a densely packed plot, and a lot of double-crosses. But and I say this with genuine respect for the series as a piece of television craft, it is also a bit of a slog. Go to Full Review

3/5
…The Night Manager 2 isn’t as bad as everyone warned me, but isn’t a patch on the original…with Hugh Laurie and Olivia Colman seemingly absent from the new venture, there’s something of a yawning gap where two huge stars used to be… Go to Full Review

T M. @Ang24 7h I enjoyed both seasons and this was one of the few series that I watched all of the episodes. See more Will H. @ohheywill 1d shitty at the end, mediocre before that. See more Louis B @da_louisl 1d Yall just cant deal with a series that doesnt have a bad ending anymore. You cant stand the idea of having to wait at least another year to see the happy ending that will definitely come in season three. Lets be real: isnt this the beauty of cinema that not everything has to go out in a good way? Infinity war had the same problem: the really good reviews only came in as endgame was already released. Were they "milking" the people? No, they were playing the long game to tell a story as good and as long as they need to be. So lets see - i am sure they will do great next season. This one was already a positive surprise. See more Carmen v @Carmen115 1d I wasted 6 hours of my life to watch a crap unsatisfied ending.....just so there can be a season 3....what a waste of my time See more Leschi L @LeschiLarry 1d They take your through 6 episodes, trying to breathe life into characters developed for the original series and then leave you with nothing at all, except their invitation for another series. Terrible. See more Tim J @timbojames 2d Doesn't have quite the chemistry and pacing of Season 1, but it's still great to see Hiddleston and Laurie back. See more Read all reviews
