Based on John le Carré's novel of the same name, "The Night Manager" is a crime drama following the work of former British soldier Jonathan Pine. Hotel night porter Pine is contacted by an intelligence operative who asks for his assistance to spy on international businessman Richard Roper. The entrepreneur is believed to have forged a criminal alliance between the secret arms trade and the intelligence community, prompting the need for surveillance. Pine attempts to infiltrate Roper's inner circle by becoming a felon himself, while keeping his mission a secret from his hotel colleagues and girlfriend.

It hits all the right beats, from knotty departmental drama to basic cable erotica, but it does so without much friction or sense of fun. Go to Full Review Wenlei Ma The Nightly (AU) Jan 27
The Night Manager season two is a show of two halves, cleaved by a big twist at the end of the third episode which changes the energy of the series. If you find the first few chapters a little dulled, just wait until that reveal. Go to Full Review Peter Travers The Travers Take Jan 23
3/4
The spy game heats up with Tom Hiddleston and Olivia Colman back in action and a new villain (Diego Calva) to spark political and sexual intrigue. That three-way dance with Hiddleston, Calva and Camila Morrone generates enough sizzle to singe your screen Go to Full Review Eddie Harrison film-authority.com 1d

…The Night Manager 2 isn’t as bad as everyone warned me, but isn’t a patch on the original…with Hugh Laurie and Olivia Colman seemingly absent from the new venture, there’s something of a yawning gap where two huge stars used to be… Go to Full Review Archi Sengupta LeisureByte.com Jan 18

Albeit repetitive, Tom Hiddleston is a sight for sore eyes in this Prime Video espionage thriller. Go to Full Review Rachel Ho Exclaim! Jan 16
While still engaging, it lacks the smoothness of its predecessor. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Karen R @Fernsdales 3h Very disappointing. As many reviews have said, the ending is weak. The Night Manager doesn’t achieve any of the things he’s set out to do, the good guys get killed and the bad guys live to fight another day. The coup still goes ahead, the baddie gets a £10m stately home, passage back to the UK, and a reconciliation with his son, the corrupt UK government isn’t brought to account, and literally every single "good guy" gets killed ( apart from the obvious) who lives to film another boring series! 👎 See more Erwin A @SoCalBrit 7h Working backwards and making sure I don't include spoilers... This is the worst ending to any series that I remember watching. The entire show is a bit underwhelming. None of it is plausible. Too many events depend upon split second timing and coincidence, a bit like the worst of Mission Impossible. There are no resources for a small group up against the establishment. Yet they magic up satellite cover and operate internationally. The acting is great. You want our hero to come through. In fact there are a number of references to his charisma and the loyalty he inspires. Laurie's character is consistently thoughtful, ruthless and always one step ahead. That side of it is great. The story is a good one, take advantage of the disadvantaged. It was poorly put together. I watched each episode hoping for improvement as the characters developed but it never did. And then the final episode made me realize I had wasted time I could have spent watching paint dry. They could have done better. See more MMM123 M @Mmm1234 8h The WORST ending I have ever seen! Ridiculous. Don't waste your time See more Brian B @Brian290 8h The ending will be very disappointing See more Sum T @Sumtoon 10h Don't bother with another season. Season 2 was not good. Have the writers returned to their fast food positions? See more Nancy B 11h Wasn't as good as Season 1 . Still keeps you interested . Episode 6 was the best one ! See more Read all reviews
