Brian Tallerico New York Magazine/Vulture You have to love a current show ending with a song that dropped just this week, Run the Jewels' "Ooh La La." It's a perfect closing needle drop from a great band. Rated: 5/5 Dec 30, 2020 Full Review Nick Schager The Daily Beast Ozark once again handles its business with merciless efficiency. Dec 30, 2020 Full Review Ed Power Daily Telegraph (UK) It's overwrought stuff but the silliness is frequently irresistible. Rated: 4/5 Dec 30, 2020 Full Review Olly Richards NME (New Musical Express) Seeing Linney play that mix of confidence and fear is a gift. It's a bonus that she spends much of her time with lawyer Helen, one of the most marvellously ruthless characters on TV. Rated: 4/5 Apr 29, 2021 Full Review Mark Meszoros The News-Herald (Willoughby, OH) A highly uneven season, one offering terrific acting and moments of intense drama but also characters who act inconsistently and increasingly tough-to-swallow plot developments. Feb 28, 2021 Full Review Kimberly Ricci Uproxx Truly, it's fascinating to watch Marty crumble. Dec 30, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Greg S Great show. 10/10 great show. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/15/24 Full Review Sarah S Riveting & disturbing, moreso in this season than unusual. Tom Pelphrey’s Ben is nothing short of incredible. Wendy, however, is infuriating. I genuinely couldn’t stand her (a compliment to Laura Linney’s acting job as the villainous deuteragonist). Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/11/24 Full Review Audience Member Absolutely loved this show even though it is not realistic at times, however the acting is outstanding. I even predicted that Julia Garner would win an Emmy for her acting... But Rotten Tomatoes deleted thousands of my previous reviews when they got bought out and everyone had to make new RT accounts. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/23/24 Full Review billybob 1 For most of this season, Ozark matches Breaking Bad in complexity and execution. A nearly flawless season. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/24/24 Full Review Dave B More ambitious than S2 but not quite as riveting. You never got the impression that Marty was going to die when he was kidnapped by the drug lord----in fact he wasnt even hurt. The outcome with Wendy's brother was predictable from the start. The Breaking Bad influences are everywhere. The FBI story isnt that compelling. Jason Bateman feels almost checked out, their kids are barely there in S3. The show moved entirely away from the blue cat and the strip club and the town characters and feel of S1 and S2, which makes sense, sorta, but it feels like a different show in many respects. Where is the hotel they are always staying at? On Darlene's property? Or are they on the boat? It's not clear enough at all. Seeing Wyatt's decent from college bound success story to sleeping with his grandmother is not very interesting or comforting, and I cant imagine the actors enjoyed making those scenes. The Zeke story is there, but it's not there, seems like they just dont know what to do with it. Wendy does not at all seem dedicated to getting Zeke back but she is going through the motions for unexplainable reasons. Helen was a good character, until she became a bit one-dimensional as a non-trusting control freak, not at all lawyerly. Is her ex alive? If so, at least her kids will have a parent. As for Novaro--so this is the guy who made everyone nuts in S1 and S2? Hard to believe. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/29/24 Full Review Mark M Excellent. Tom Pelphrey is excellent as a bipolar man off his medication. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/23/23 Full Review Read all reviews
