Critics Consensus

Behind Her Eyes' many twists may be unexpected, but limited character development also leaves them feeling unearned - still, it may be just bonkers enough to keep forgiving viewers entertained.

Naomi Fry The New Yorker 03/02/2021
It is hard to tell who is warden and who is prisoner, who is crazy and who is sane, and the Netflix show revels in this uncertainty. Go to Full Review

It opts for a bizarre shock that's baffling at best and deeply tone-deaf at its worst. Go to Full Review

3/5
It is probably intended to make you want to go back and watch the whole series again with fresh eyes (remember the title?). The only problem is, the run up is so ponderous you might not even make it as far as the twist in the first place. Go to Full Review

Behind Her Eyes is a mixed bag. While I think the acting is strong, the show doesn’t do enough with it. Go to Full Review

Where others excel with the dark and twisty storylines building intrigue and frightening sequences this one is only good for mustering up a sleepy yawn. Go to Full Review

Stephanie B @RT60277734 May 2 This show still haunts me. The ending you never see coming will command you to watch the entire show again from a different perspective. Wild. See more Blake D @RT55286378 Mar 31 I thought it was a great show. The writing was excellent. The story unfolded nicely. You didn't see the ending coming, yet it was very well foreshadowed throughout the movie, if you knew where to look. In hindsight, you realize that everything was right there. I don't get the bad reviews. Some people couldn't hang with the supernatural element. Who cares?! This isn't science class. It's entertainment. Accept that aspect of the movie and it's an excellent, plausible, plot line. Also, lots of critics that can't do math. 6 x 40 does not equal 6 hours. For the love of Christ, Mensas, if you can't do basic math, should you really be giving any of your opinions out? One woman thought the concept of a woman fucking her boss, who happens to be her friend's husband was implausible. Really? Seriously? Which rock has this lady been living under? Anyway, the show is worth the watch. The story will pull you in. The ending will definitely hit. Enjoy! See more Filipe Gonçalo F @Filly9325_ Mar 1 Wallahi plot twist was so twisted I didn’t understand it and had to get it explained to me then it all made sense. Woosh what a twist. See more ULYANA D. @ulyana Feb 28 I read the book so it was a bit spoiled, but i thought it was quite well made, just a little slow in the beginning and way too many intimate bed scenes. See more Johnny B. @thatboyjb Feb 13 Decent show overall but was a little slow dragging to me, the plot twist saves it but I kinda predicted it in episode 4. See more Oceane M. @ocean.goddess Feb 8 Very gripping with an excellent twist See more Read all reviews
