Conversations With Friends reviews
Currently, Conversations With Friends has a 50 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes. The critics’ reviews are mixed to negative
The Hollywood Reporter’s Angie Han writes the show is “lovely to look at” but “Oliver and Alwyn generate only mild friction together, even when their unclothed bodies are writhing against each other to gentle soundtracks in soft sunlight.”
Alan Sepinwall of Rolling Stone compares it unfavorably to Normal People, noting, “Everything that seemed so magical and easy in 2020 is more labored this time around.”
Collider’s Emma Kiely seconds this view, writing, “What we get as a result is a stale, uninspired and cold series, without any of the charm or soul of Normal People.”
Marianka Swain of the Daily Telegraph is more positive, calling it “an utter joy to watch, as well as an audacious conversation-starter.”
