prawnda S @RT72497680 Oct 24, 2026 please stop hiring elizabeth moss. even if she weren't benefiting from nepotism through an abjectly predatory life ruining blackmail cult such as scientology, she is completely untalented. while i don't generally judge people based on their appearances, she is just downright awful to look at for someone who keeps getting so many tv and movie roles, and it's just so obvious that there is no meritocracy happening here. besides this, she is consistently typecast in the the most obnoxious, toxic person she could possibly be, and i don't need to watch more than the trailer for this show to know it's going to lean into more than the same. See more Gabrielle G @RT53076956 Aug 3, 2026 It is an absurd attempt to portray international spy drama.. the continuity and rational are ridiculous. Key characters running around with no disguises and easy escapes. finale episode is laughable what big castle no maids or footman to begin with and then add incest just laughable See more Paola B @RT53332168 May 5, 2026 I am genuinely surprised how boring this show was. The only reason I kept on watching it is because of Elizabeth- she’s an incredible actress, she carried the entire show. The plot and action though - wow, impressively boring See more Rosie O @RT12812875 Aug 26, 2025 Great series. Humour and big characters. Can’t wait for more! See more L. F @RT68678650 Aug 25, 2025 Elisabeth Moss gave a great performance but it wasn't enough to save the show. It actually seemed really promising to begin with, but turned into what can only be describled as muddled, unbelievable, poorly executed, espionage nonsense. The storyline was overly convoluted for no reason, which then required countless convenient coincidences & left-field "ah-ha" moments in order to keep things moving. It asked for way too much suspension of disbelief from the audience. The slapstick violence & unnecessary creepy "sexy" scenes slowing things down during what were apparently time critical moments, were the final nails in the coffin. What a mess! See more Neil C @RT73281396 Aug 16, 2025 Lazy, disjointed storytelling that's riddled with cliches. Elizabeth Moss talks to herself all the time, like a fan-fiction heroine whose author doesn't have the skill to explain her motivations any other way. The secret service agents make James Bond look realistic and action scenes have a jarring lack of research - apparently French roadside bollards so easily detach that you can use them as a weapon to assault motorcycle riders and coastguard helicopters lead SEAL team raids. There's a weird daddy-issues theme running through it, which either needs to be made central to the plot or dropped entirely. As it is, it feels like the writer thinks daddy-issues plus kicking ass now and again automatically make Elizabeth Moss' character interesting and deep. They do not. The Veil is what you'd get if you asked chatGPT for a movie script about a female spy. The first few episodes aren't terrible but it gets worse and the conclusion is truly awful. Don't bother.
