Spenser Confidential

“It’s a fantastically over-the-top, drive-in B-movie for the streaming generation.”

Richard Roeper, Chicago Sun-Times · 88

“Adapted apparently quite loosely from Atkins’ Robert B. Parker’s Wonderland, Spenser Confidential has ended up with a genially amusing script expertly tailored to its actors by Sean O’Keefe and the canny veteran Brian Helgeland. And, as smartly cast by the veteran Sheila Jaffe, Spenser Confidential gets spot on performances from a variety of actors, from household names including Alan Arkin to other less celebrated but undeniably talented folks.”

“The prospect of spending more time with this crew is not a bad one.”

“As Berg and Wahlberg (perfect partners, even in name) ascended inexorably toward a parodic level of Bostonian-ness in Spenser Confidential, I wondered if I wouldn’t be having a better time just getting a more concentrated dose of Arkin in The Kominsky Method.”

“Here’s some perfectly mindless couch viewing.”
