What to Know

Critics Consensus

Deborah Ayorinde and Ashley Thomas' gripping performances help Them sustain a sufficient sense of terror, but its blunt and bloody approach undermines any social commentary in favor of more superficial horrors.

Unfortunately, while it’s gorgeous, Them has nothing new or interesting to say. Go to Full Review Robert Levin Newsday 04/26/2021

The potential for a resonant depiction of the all-too-common, real world nightmare experienced by the Emory family is lost in a sea of clichés. Go to Full Review Shireen Rose Shakouri Bitch Media 04/20/2021
Through powerful, skilled acting, smart cinematography, and immersive scenery and scoring, Them drops viewers into a tale that leaves no guessing where American horrors fester. Go to Full Review Justin Charity The Ringer 09/13/2023
An overwrought race-horror anthology about housing discrimination, defined in large part by its excessive self-consciousness of its creative debts to Peele... Go to Full Review Joanne Laurier World Socialist Web Site 10/30/2021
All the complications of the historical process and social life are thrown out the window. This sort of project may tickle the fancy of the affluent middle class, the identity politics crowd, but probably not too many others. Go to Full Review Deborah Mouton Mediaversity Reviews 08/16/2021

Craig B @Boundsy Nov 30 An absolutely riveting series. Great cast, enthralling story and a superb mix of historical drama, suspense and horror. See more S D @Stheday Nov 29 One of the best series that I have seen in years. Highly underrated. See more Stephanie J Sep 17 Very entertaining. I love the first and the second sequel. The acting is really good. I binged watched season one and season two in two days. See more Refilwe M Aug 5 The best horror series. Emotional, uncomfortable, scary, great story, unpredictable. GREAT See more Chris F Mar 19 Half the blood and violence would have been enough. Then I would have given 4 Stars. See more Ricardo d 02/15/2025 Todas as cenas retratando a realidade negra foram maravilhosas de se assistir, os momentos chocantes de tortura e preconceito, tudo isso deu força a trama, seguidos por interpretações convincentes, boa fotografia, e em grande parte uma boa edição. Porém, acho que usar de elementos sobrenaturais confundiu o fio condutor, e isso me desestimulou principalmente no seu climax. Eram como 2 histórias sendo contadas em separado que tentavam se unir feito oleo e água. See more Read all reviews
