The pacing isn’t slower but steadier, darker but less brutal. The action sequences are ballistic, while the plot has enough twists and payoffs to make the ride worth it. It’s just so serious. Go to Full Review

That the formidable Frances Neagley has gotten her own series, a spinoff of the popular “Reacher,” is so natural it’s organic. Free-range, even. Go to Full Review
Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times 3 days ago
By the end it does manage to suggest — with the team walking four abreast toward the camera in slow-motion — a workable future for the franchise. Go to Full Review

4/5
It remains sensationalist, over-the-top, and aware that it's telling a story where the villains can behave like true comic book villains. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

8/10
Neagley Season 1 is an absolute success. The first season proves Frances Neagley can carry a show on her own and is more than just Reacher’s protégé and friend. Go to Full Review

James B @Chigurh 1 hr ago Cliche plot twists borrowed from other movies, all characters sound the same, dialogue is a plethora of hackneyed phrases and testosterone fueled rages. A mob boss in prison says "They were thick as milkshakes!" Huh? Off-putting violence like stoning a girl to death while she is duct taped to a wheel chair, a burning pit for bags of dismembered bodies, a drugged teenager smashing his member with a hammer and on and on. Plenty of self serving product placement. Stereotyped characters act irrationally, making logical deductions that are unwarranted and lots of propitious coincidences to keep the atory moving, albeit slowly. Music from the 60s and 70s is endemic, like the writers are all old farts. This is a good example of lazy, sloppy writing, and the acting, while competent, is hardly inspiring! Oh yeah, ridiculous back story on main characters, so boring! See more Its S @swifjay 2 hrs ago If you love Reacher, you will definitely love Neagley! Great spin-off. See more Dr. C @RT99608787 3 hrs ago Neagly delivers exactly what Reacher fans have been waiting for — a spinoff that stands on its own without losing the DNA of the source material. The pacing is the standout: fast, yes, but more importantly tight. No dead air, no filler coasting on brand recognition. Every scene earns its place. Maria Sten is a revelation as Frances Neagly. She brings both the physical presence and command of character that Lee Child wrote into the page — a faithful, fully realized version, not a watered-down one for TV. She carries the show with quiet authority. What impressed me most was the balance struck with Reacher himself. Bookending the season with him — present at the start and finish, but stepping back to let Neagly and her new team claim the spotlight — was exactly right. It honors the original series without overshadowing this one. This first season felt like coming home while breaking new ground. Highly recommended. See more Juan R @jmro1977 4 hrs ago If you love Reacher just as much as I do, you will love Neagley just as much. Great job, cheers to more seasons of these absolutely great characters! See more David S @RT40244825 6 hrs ago Loved it. As good as reacher, I want more seasons. See more Lynda S @Nezka 7 hrs ago I really enjoyed this show. I also loved when she would show on Reacher so I was happy to have more of her. I watched with my husband and we both agreed. We liked all the characters which feels unusual and they were all good actors. I also liked the story and the music!!!! See more Read all reviews
