View Details Critic Reviews for The Sinner Season 2 All Critics (33) | Top Critics (12) | Fresh (32) | Rotten (1) Season Two has only just begun its twists and turns. But so far, so good, with ample possibilities still in play while Harry's head tries to stay in the game. Jul 30, 2018 | Rating: B+ | Full Review… Ed Bark Uncle Barky Top Critic Season 2 has enough going on it could spin off the rails, but the mere fact it has so much working for it thus far is a big win for everyone involved. The Sinner is no one-hit wonder. Jul 30, 2018 | Rating: B+ | Full Review… Ben Travers indieWire Top Critic Some of the storytelling feels less refined than last year... but the cast is again strong enough that The Sinner could again be an addictive summer distraction right when we need it. Jul 30, 2018 | Full Review… Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com Top Critic For young Elisha Henig's acting chops, no praise is high enough. Nov 6, 2018 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review… Suzi Feay Financial Times Top Critic Pullman's performance is so beautifully understated it draws you in. Dec 10, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review… Deborah Ross The Mail on Sunday (UK) You wouldn't call it fun exactly, but it grips like a dyspeptic alligator. Nov 25, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review… Adam Sweeting The Arts Desk An intelligent thriller and a satisfying watch. Jul 31, 2019 | Full Review… Fiona Flynn entertainment.ie The Sinner sets up a more immediately thrilling psychological mystery with the premiere of its second season. Dec 18, 2018 | Rating: 8.5/10 | Full Review… Matthew Dougherty IGN Movies As played by Natalie Paul, [Heather] is a striking presence and there are arresting performances, too, from Tracy Letts as her father and from Carrie Coon...as the cult leader who claims to be Julian's mother. Dec 12, 2018 | Full Review… John Boland Irish Independent The show continues to thrill with its ability to deceive viewers into believing they know where the story is headed. They don't. Nov 24, 2018 | Rating: 3.5/4 | Full Review… John Hanlon John Hanlon Reviews At least we got to watch husband and wife Tracy Letts and Carrie Coon balance each other as complementary characters. Sep 20, 2018 | Full Review… Christopher Campbell Film School Rejects It's a middling, dour season of television without an ounce of humor or pathos, a fairly straightforward procedural thriller without much in the way of thrills. Aug 17, 2018 | Full Review… Dustin Rowles Pajiba View All Critic Reviews (33) Audience Reviews for The Sinner: Season 2 Sep 07, 2020 Brilliant! Better than S01, for sure. Ambrose and his 'world' seem to fit better with the events around him, with both worlds interacting well throughout the season. Have to admit at being impressed with Henig's acting in such a complex role within the storyline David C Aug 29, 2020 Worst season. A bit boring and uniteresting Flo L Aug 19, 2020 Bill Pullman once again makes you feel uncomfortable in his awkward portrayal of Harry Ambrose, but once again the Sinner delivers all most fronts. Lee J Jul 30, 2020 The Sinner is a good show' it gets someone sitting through all the dark' intrigues ‘ flashbacks' and this whole mystery. I just don't understand how top writers can make this plot twist' so impossible' Julian looks nothing like Heather's father. ( cant remember character name). If they wanted Julian to have some sort of normal life' Heather could've looked after him just because of her connection with Marin. Too many wannabe twists' too many flashbacks' sometimes a bit slow paced... but still looking forward to the next season' because The Sinner jumps through hoops to shock. Season 1 was also really intriguing' but the end so average... oh well' not ungrateful' but maybe just expecting way more!! Louwdine S Jul 04, 2020 I have watched series 3 and now watching series 2. The plots are very confusing but the character I really don't like is the detective, Harry Ambrose. He gets involved with the sinners, buried alive, partying and getting a massage en route, and now he's following a cult leader into an impenetrable forest. He is not a credible detective. He is ludicrous. Eve d Jun 26, 2020 How could two very light hair, blue eyed couple produce a child with arab-middle eastern complexion???? Why so many of the characters happen to be so intertwined??? How come Harry is such an fantastical character?? Mareena Y Jun 22, 2020 On its own, the season has some great elements, but I can't help compare it to the 1st season, which was phenomenal Jay E May 06, 2020 While it presents some compelling storylines that are "Carrie-d" largely by Coon's and Bill Pullman's performances, season 2 of The Sinner doubles down on the show's biggest flaws in the first season, full of time-wasting filler episodes with boring and absolutely useless supporting characters. Andy T Apr 21, 2020 This is not how reality works... Giorgi G Apr 12, 2020 What a let down?! I understand that after a great season, it's very difficult to follow up, but this season was so bland. I got really bored.
