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.

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 Dustin Rowles Pajiba 2d
It is another six episodes of superb performances, meticulous spycraft, a densely packed plot, and a lot of double-crosses. But and I say this with genuine respect for the series as a piece of television craft, it is also a bit of a slog. Go to Full Review Eddie Harrison film-authority.com 5d
3/5
…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 Read all reviews

Martin O @Oggie 16h This totally trashed the memory of the excellent first season. Good acting, but a pale imitation of John le Carré's writing. Very disappointed. See more Christine D @Chris61 23h I loved Season 1 and if anything I loved Season 2 even more. The darker tone and incredible acting from Tom Hiddleston and the new and returning cast made Season 2 well worth the long wait. This story yielded a heartbreaking and shocking turn of events and I can’t wait for Season 3. See more Robert B @MR_Bob 1d Amazon produced a good series but completely disappointed the viewers by ending with a cliffhanger rather than a conclusion to the series. Now you need to wait until 2027 to see more. Seems more like Buy Prime Again and we MAY complete the story. It's a DIRTY TRICK. See more Margaret C @MargieC 1d Love this show! Can’t wait for season 3! See more Merrin S @MerrinS 1d The political intrigue is promising. Hiddleston and Laurie have charisma to burn. Diego Calva is a find, Morrone has good moments, and the 3-way dance scene is instantly iconic. But downgrading Teddy midway through the season is a terrible mistake, and Olivia Colman should sue them for wrongful... everything. Burr is a phenomenal character, and deserved so much better. This season feels like the film version of MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE, where they killed off the entire team in the first few minutes just so that Tom Cruise could turn an ensemble TV story into a solo action franchise. In this case, they've turned one of the smartest writers in the world into just another excuse for a motorcycle chase. There's at least one more season on the way, but I'm out. See more Kevin P @Tirnog 1d Ropey ending! Tried to be overly clever... but actually not. They tried too hard and they failed. Can't be bothered to wait for series 3. Another brilliant BBC franchise ruined. See more Read all reviews
