Though it doesn’t always snap together perfectly -- as engaging as the series is, it’s also thoroughly preposterous -- the show will definitely keep audiences tethered to their screens. ​ Go to Full Review
Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter 14h
It’s a bluntly entertaining, thoroughly disposable series nestled partway between prestige antihero drama and enjoyably brainless pulp, not quite providing the pleasures of either but not exactly failing at its mid-level aspirations. Go to Full Review

M.I.A. is a decent showcase for Shannon Gisela as a fresh-faced talent, but she deserves much more than this forgettable crime drama. M.I.A. is D.O.A. Go to Full Review

The hard truth is, M.I.A. is at its best when it stops trying to be Ozark and lets itself be Ozark's sweatier, more deranged cousin. Go to Full Review
