Inside Man (2022) – Mystery Miniseries on Netflix – Review: An Ingenious British Thriller

Veronica Loop
Inside Man (2022)

Inside Man is a 4 episode miniseries created by Steven Moffat starring David Tennant, Stanley Tucci, Dolly Wells, and Lydia West.

A BBC original series that can be streamed on Netflix, brought to us by the legendary screenwriter Steven Moffat (Doctor Who and Sherlock), with two great actors in the lead roles. Stanley Tucci brilliantly takes on a trihybrid role (Sherlock, Lecter, House) in this clever British mystery series, and a superb David Tennant, in a more serious manner, plays the character of a vicar in a constant moral conundrum.

A good old mystery series in which its characters are full of surprises as they find themselves at a crossroads.
