Season 3 of Slow Horses presents a main story that escalates and derails in the best way possible. Not only does it engagingly involve all characters in the story, but we can also understand and appreciate the personal stakes for everyone, which makes it extremely compelling from beginning to end.
The cast and direction are great but “Slow Horses” works largely because the writing is consistently stellar.
Slow Horses is sharply written at every twist and turn. Forceful, funny, and conspiratorial, it’s constantly finding new ways into spy thriller dynamics while showcasing the terrific work of its cast and letting Gary Oldman just completely go off as the jaded, aged spy at its center.
Slow Horses is an underdog story of the highest caliber. At this point, if you’re not on board, one has to wonder who the true f–kups are.
“Slow Horses” is back for season 3 on Apple TV+, and it’s a joy. The story line is fine — it’s less twisty and cerebral than those of the previous two seasons, perhaps, which is fine. .... But the characters, and particularly Gary Oldman’s Jackson Lamb, are more entertaining than ever.
It is funny and crude, but tense and gripping, and as such, it is a roundly entertaining, solid spy thriller.
The show’s strengths remain, if somewhat downplayed. Gary Oldman is the walking embodiment of body odor and mental acuity as Jackson Lamb. .... The other slow horses remain too underdeveloped to really build out the show’s world in unexpectedly compelling ways.
