Taut and often smart.
September 03, 2019
Thief is raw, gritty and rich in character development.
September 03, 2019
Thief is headed toward solid ground and a nimbly sustained plot. By the end of its first episode, the series has taken on the complexities of domestic drama.
September 03, 2019
This is all well done, and it's a great-looking production, but the weight of the drama keeps tugging toward a side plot about Braugher's 14-year-old stepdaughter... The growing suspense over the fate of this girl is a bit creepy.
September 03, 2019
The show's cast is terrific and helps make things continually watchable, and the Nick/Tammy relationship is a great idea, but there is a lack of urgency to the proceedings.
September 03, 2019
A stylish mess that never steals your heart and follows characters who are difficult to care about.
September 03, 2019
The show would probably be too ponderous to enjoy if Braugher weren't an actor of tremendous restraint. His performance is about his potential energy and his scenes with Mae Whitman, who plays Tammi, have a fantastic tension.
September 03, 2019
With strong writing and acting, and the rich atmospheric setting of post-Katrina New Orleans, "Thief" is not only a worthy successor this season to "The Shield" but a serious and solid series.
September 03, 2019
Great writing, insanely good acting, deeply troubled and deeply layered characters and a plot that will keep you glued to your seat.
September 03, 2019
As a criminal mastermind, Braugher can do no wrong... It's doubtful, though, whether his skill can earn this bleak show a run longer than six episodes. The disappointing Thief represents a step back for FX.
September 03, 2019
It walks the walk of Important Series Television, but no matter how hard it tries to be gutsy and existential, it rings hollow.
September 04, 2019
Thief is great material -- fierce, fraught, human, very 1970s. It's like watching Michael Mann, or 1970s Scorsese and Cassavetes in TV form.
