🎯 Verdict
"This murder mystery whodunnit keeps on spinning its yearns with saturated overcooked backstories, time jumps, repressed memories, multiple branches, personal shenanigans and abrupt loose ends until you start asking yourself when is it gonna stop because of a splitting headache it induces. Both Sarah Greene and Killian Scott did their best as per the requirements of the Tana French novels. Couldn't care for the forced side quest of the inquiry nor its past trauma ridden attitude towards other people, especially women. Apart from that the atmospheric setting of rural Ireland, the woody landscape and gloomy overcast as well as eerie night time designs of the show seem like a waste of opportunity given all the unnecessary red herrings Dublin Murders throws at you. If not for the reveals at the climax and the intent of the gruesome act, most of the episodes contribute nothing fresh to the investigative murder mystery genre."
