The Handmaid's Tale Audience Reviews

Diagonaldi Very well executed
Holstra Boring, long, and too preachy.
Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.
Catherina If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
nlanzillotta I refuse to waste anymore time on this show by writing a lengthy review. So I will accomplish what this show couldn't, brevity.
amalbouafif I was one of the biggest fans of the first season , in fact i loved it so much , i couldn't wait for season 2 to come with answers and a continuation to the story, maybe that's why i was a little disappointed with this season , with great expectations comes great let downs. the reasons for my let down had nothing to do with thinking that the idea of the show was too grim or too unrealistic, because it's not ,my problem was with the plot of season 2. i expected or maybe hoped that the show will pick-up the story from where it ended and develop it from there , starting new chapters about the story of June , i wanted the show to talk about the escape, the new circumstances of the characters, and tackle more issues about other characters , and give us a better look into this new world but what the show did was keep turning in circles, keep us trapped in the same situations and with an extremely repetitive routine and a boring slow progress of events . it was a shame and such a waste of great material and possibilities. this take on the show affected the characters a lot , it slowed their progress and limited their actions to the point where it become a series of repetitive emotions and actions or a rollercoaster of feelings in a single episode for no apparent reason , it was exhausting to keep up with it and try to make sense of it since there's a difference between being a multi dimensional character or just a person with a bipolar disorder. what i also and mostly hated was probably that the show was getting really predictable in a bad way , half way through the second season the outcomes of the plot twists won't surprise you any more, you already know it's going to be a sad ending and disappointing outcome for the protagonist , you loose any excitement to know what's going to happen next , because u already know , at one point we need to say it " enough is enough " ,it got tedious . this show with it's great cinematography, amazing new concept , flawless acting fell to becoming just another sad story.
Harry Harison Low-life protagonist, creepy society, nothing likeable about this show. I can bet writer is an atheist and thats how he imagines religious society, it means he just projects his own creepiness about the subject he has no clue about.
heather_strang Such an amazing well done show , really makes you think about things ,I'm addicted , now I bought the book as well and I'm not one to ever read books ,the show is extremely gripping it sticks in my head for so long after every episode, and the actors are so fantastic. This is a show that everyone should watch !!!
