Critics' reviews

"[It] is immediately likeable, unspooling with exhilaration and then, almost when we're not expecting or even needing it to, the series develops other favorable attributes that hint at a longer, more complex run."

Tim Goodman: The Hollywood Reporter
"Sneaky Pete is both crime and caper, walking a fascinating and ultimately successful line between grit and hijinks."

Sonia Saraiya: Variety
"The mood of the series changes after the pilot; a show that was distinctive for being relaxed and amiable starts to feel a little more forced and artificial."

Mike Hale: The New York Times
"After a shaky start, Pete gets denser, trickier and better."

Verne Gay: Newsday
"Like so many other Amazon shows, it doesn't take itself too seriously. It's a reminder that TV can be fun."

Brian Tallerico: rogerebert.com
"The series has such a strong command of tone and pacing that, like any good con artist, it persuades you to overlook the parts that might not add up."

Jen Chaney: Vulture
"At first you're rolling your eyes at what seems an absurd stretch of a premise, but soon enough you're buying its always-on-edge predicaments and after a few episodes you're hooked into its story-upon-story acrobatics."

Tom Long: Detroit News
