True Detective TV Series Reviews

“The show's creator, Nic Pizzolatto, brought to the script, the eight-part series focused on the on-again, off-again bromance of Marty Hart and Rust Cohle. And that's what made the series so polarizing” New York Times

“Every now and then a television programme arrives so fully formed and confident that the only response is to gasp in pleasure and applaud. Crime thriller True Detective… is one such show.” Independent

“The acting–by Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson–is off the charts. The writing and the concept, by series creator and novelist Nic Pizzolatto, undulates from effectively brash soliloquies to penetratingly nuanced moments carried by sparse prose. Lastly, director Cary Joji Fukunaga has created a beautiful, sprawling sense of place (the series is shot and set in Louisiana).” The Hollywood Reporter

“The wasteland noir of True Detective is many things at once – an enthralling murder mystery about history, culture, and heroic character; a tour de force for stars Woody Harrelson and Matthew McConaughey.” Entertainment We­ekly
