The Agency miniseries

"Despite some promising concepts and a committed cast, 'The Agency' squanders its potential with slow pacing and a conflicted tone that seems to be at battle with itself (...) Rating: ★★★★★ (out of 10)" 

"The series looks terrific and sometimes builds suspense. What it doesn’t have, at least in early episodes, is much consistency" 

"[It] offers audiences something different (...) Deeply engrossing, the espionage thriller explores the human cost of covert work." 

"The precise appreciation of seemingly innocuous details and meticulous unfurling of each mystery still make 'The Agency' an inviting new addition to the spy genre" 

"There's an interesting idea here about struggling to live in the skin of another and how easy it is to lose yourself in work, but what the show ends up losing is our interest instead." 

"Turner-Smith makes Sami a charming and complex character (...) The rest of the cast is great (...) 'The Agency' sets up many mysteries that could lead to exciting twists (...) Rating: ★★★★★★★ (out of 10)" 

"Fassbender can’t save this cliché-heavy spy drama. (...) Even the impressive supporting cast, brimming with talent though it is, feels oddly underutilized (...) While the ingredients are here for a standout spy drama (...) the execution falters"
