Critics Reviews

William Schwartz HanCinema Right to the end, "The 8 Show" refuses to caricature even its most seemingly loathsome characters. All of them were driven to madness by the harsh, empathy-less world they lived in long before they accepted their invitation to the game. Jun 14, 2024 Full Review Chris Joyce Movies and Munchies (YouTube) The pacing is deliberate and urgent, without creating rushed storytelling, and when this is combined with the suspenseful and dreadful actions, the storytelling will grab you and compel you to watch. Rated: 4.5/5 May 23, 2024 Full Review Joel Keller Decider The 8 Show might be as dark as Squid Game, but it’s definitely more wryly funny... May 21, 2024 Full Review Pierce Conran South China Morning Post Viewers are likely to recognise The 8 Show as a blatant attempt to piggyback on the achievement of the most successful Netflix show of all time, but so long as they are being entertained they may give it more time. Rated: 3/5 May 18, 2024 Full Review Jonathon Wilson Ready Steady Cut Something fascinating happens in The 8 Show, but it’s fascinating for the wrong reasons. Rated: 2/5 May 18, 2024 Full Review Kate Sánchez But Why Tho? A Geek Community The 8 Show is one of the best limited series on Netflix. It ends with finality and pays off every narrative choice made along the way. Rated: 10/10 May 17, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
