The Outsider (TV Series) Tear-Drinker (2020) User Reviews

Still good,but tooslow for No reason

[maboyong · 6/10 · 5 February 2020]

Why did Holly have to tell Ralph the truth face to face instead of saying on the phone, is that necessary? It would save a load of time if holly just throw what she found to Ralph directly on the phone first and moveon. I can't image any rational reason to design such plot for whole story. May be there was not enough content to fill the script, so they just had toslow down the story by using an unreasonable action.

Decent

3 out of 5 stars.

Creepy and effective thriller. With the outsider stalking a couple of people. Lurking around. The direction and script is still slow moving.

Cry Baby

Half way through the season now and the pace of the show is starting to wear me down now.

Holly (Cynthia Erivo) refines her theory that the entity carrying out these crimes likes to stay around and feed on the misery. Meanwhile, having been warned once, Ralph Anderson (Ben Mendelsohn) receives more instructions to drop the case, this time from closer to home.

I don't want my initial sentence to suggest that the shows not good. Performances are still excellent and the show looks great. It's the first Directing gig for usual D.P Igor Martinovic and he does a good job - it's just that I still want the show to move faster than it currently is doing. This episode isn't as bad as last weeks for this, but I do feel that it's still the case. And you can see, from the time I'm writing this review compared to the air date that I'm increasingly choosing other things, rather than "The Outsider" for my evenings viewing. I will see it through though.

Solid story telling and acting

People complaining about how slow this series is need more patience. Not everything needs to be Marvel 'splosions or a 280 tweet. Let things simmer and build.

I'm buying

Love this show! Hope it continues to impress! Loved this episode the most;

Too much going on, but I'm still engaged.

[LegendaryFang56 · 7/10 · 31 July 2021]

I think one of the main reasons why I'm having a little trouble following this show and more specifically, coming up with something to write about each episode, is because there's so much going on, and so many scenes, and once you're getting more and more engaged in one line of the story, the scene changes to a different line of it. And that jumbles everything around in your brain, making it tough to focus enough on all of it, in general, enough for something to write about it to emerge itself.

I would say binging the entire show would get rid of that problem for me, but I have no idea, and there's a part of me that thinks it wouldn't make a difference.

Other than that, I'm decently engaged in the show, and I'm enjoying it very much, I just have trouble coming with something to write about each episode that will suffice. This episode, in particular, was good, just as good as every previous episode, and just like I'm sure every subsequent episode will be.

Soooooooooooooo

[Memmaao · 5/10 · 4 February 2020]

Sloooooooow! If you attempt to watch it as an "after kid's bedtime", drink a coffee instead of a glass of wine,. otherwise, you end up sleeping on the coach.

Terrible actress

[diehls-08027 · 4/10 · 28 February 2020]

She is awful. The show isn't great, especially the slow pace and terrible soundtrack that makes it ddddrrrraaaagggg along sluggishly. But her acting is 8th grade play bad.
