Critics Consensus

Citadel spares no expense but still feels underdeveloped, yielding a fairly fun spy caper that nonetheless creaks under the weight of its own exorbitance.

The Playlist

Audiences for action movies are willing to suspend disbelief if the payoff is worth the cost, but “Citadel” never closes the sale.

Rated: D

The Indian Express

As one of the good guys, Stanley Tucci tries hard but is given no edge. Madden is a clean-cut, bloodless fella, who might be good to take home to mum, but as a dangerous spy? Oh please.

New York Magazine/Vulture

Espionage is built on an odd little paradox: Spies have no choice but to trust others while doing trust-ruining things to them.

Rated: 3/5

Our man continues to look good in a well-tailored suit. No bum shots in the opening episode, but he’s constantly examining his chest scars from a previous life. All good fun.

As generic as they come, and not even the leads — or a scene-stealing Stanley Tucci — can keep us too engaged...

Citadel isn’t great, but it’s not awful, either. Most of the narrative beats are predictable. Even with this show’s jaw-dropping budget, expansive globetrotting, high-tech gadgetry and sleek fight choreography, something is missing.

I've had my fair share of spy shows, but never have I encountered such a mediocre one. The timeline is hard to keep up with, events keep colliding with each other, from past to present. Not enticed for a season 2 at all.

Melodramatic, uninspired, and boring as hell, Citadel is a baffling misfire from the Russo Brothers.

Even a Bond girl’s hair and makeup got a little disheveled after a fight.

It was absolutely amazing and I can’t wait to watch hopefully many many more seasons. Definitely a must watch.

It blows my mind that anyone has anything negative to say about this show, I didn’t see any of the scenes coming and truly couldn’t stop watching it. This show is amazing and I truly hope we get many many more season to come. Tell everyone to go watch it, it’s truly worth every second!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

It's a good/ok show with a few twists and turns but at the end of the day it's dialog is a little cheesy at times (think 90's bond style) and reminiscent of a soap opera, but with spies.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars
