What to Know

Critics Consensus

Sneaky Pete's sophomore season replicates its predecessor's finesse with narrative sleight of hand and deliciously twisted capers, although Bryan Cranston's gravitas is sorely missed.

Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe It's a lot of fun. Oct 8, 2018 Full Review Tim Goodman Hollywood Reporter Sneaky Pete is of a certain style. And one that it does quite well. But without Cranston as the magnetic heavy at the center of the action, the effort it takes to keep up your investment might be more challenging than last season. Mar 13, 2018 Full Review Ben Travers indieWire All three of these arcs - as well as a loosely tied conflict between Otto (Peter Gerety) and a young hitman - run throughout Season 2 and effectively create tension through alternatively cute and unnerving short cons within the longer cons. Rated: B Mar 10, 2018 Full Review Ángel S. Harguindey El Pais (Spain) The second season of 'Sneaky Pete' is as good as the first. [Full Review in Spanish] Jun 5, 2019 Full Review Kevin Fitzpatrick ScreenCrush In two seasons the series perfectly carries on that mix of sharp dialogue, family drama and shocking violence - an amiable mix of Ocean's 11 with Breaking Bad - through its bail bonds and con artist worlds. May 29, 2018 Full Review Josh Sorokach Decider Yost and company not only crafted a complex central mystery, but they also littered each episode with a bounty of mini conundrums and cons for the characters to solve.

James M This is still better than most dramas pumped out these days. It has a clever script and decent acting. Felt like it was a couple of episodes too long though. Throughout the multiple twists and turns you feel like you are heading towards an improbable denouement. This turned out to be the case. Without giving the plot away the finale requires our heroes predicting the precise reactions of the bad guys to the nearest second to avoid a grisly and painful death. Whilst it is a comedy drama this gives the show an air of improbability.. Another distraction and casting misfire is that in real life there are less than 10 years between Pete and his onscreen Mom. It's clear to see on screen and will prompt many viewers like me to look it up. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/09/24 Full Review Gareth v While not as strong as the first season it's still a very entertaining series. Sticks to what it knows best and does it well. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/24/23 Full Review michael f Season 2 picks up right where we left everyone. I actually love how Season 1 and 2 seem to happen over the span of days instead of weeks. The acting and writing continue to be the highlight, especially as we see solid character development even in the second tier characters. I might not rank it as high as Season 1, but an absolute watch imo. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review moviereviewerc u A very well acted and fun to watch season Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member I'm just angry about this Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member A bit all over the place. Never really grasped me. A lot of dreary scenes. Didn't live upto season 1. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
