What to Know

Critics Consensus

Unsolved Mysteries' latest reboot is slick and features compelling cases, but fails to live up to the original's spookiness and gets lost in the current sea of true crime offerings.

Alessa Dominguez BuzzFeed News Focusing on perplexing crimes and stories about victims largely ignored by the genre, the streaming giant’s true crime reboot actually cuts through the glut. Apr 7, 2022 Full Review Aja Romano Vox Thanks to the random macabre magic that resulted from giving her husband an unexpected spotlight, Unsolved Mysteries manages to satisfy both its old and new audiences and deliver at least one case that's as unique as it is baffling. Rated: 3/5 Jul 10, 2020 Full Review Katie Rife AV Club Even if their motives are less than altruistic, well, the alien episodes are still fun. Rated: B- Jul 2, 2020 Full Review Charles Hartford But Why Tho? A Geek Community At the end of the day Netflix delivers a passable true crime documentary in Unsolved Mysteries. While it may be a bit dry at times, it does a decent job of telling some interesting stories, without feeling exploitive of those on the screen. Rated: 7/10 Jan 23, 2023 Full Review David Skipwith The Post NZ It remains a classic and still makes for entertaining and intriguing viewing. Jul 18, 2022 Full Review Joyce Slaton Common Sense Media Worthy revamp of true crime mystery show has some violence. Rated: 4/5 Jul 14, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Kim T A gripping true crime documentary series. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/22/23 Full Review Dustin D 'Member Unsolved Mysteries? I used to watch it with my friends on Friday nights in the '90s when I was in third grade and we'd all be creeped out. Now it's back! It could use more ghost and alien episodes, though. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/12/23 Full Review Shaeffer C Let's keep the mysteries and the conspiracies separate. Playing Bigfoot and UFO fantasy stories next to real life victim's stories is disgusting. It minimizes victims, their families, and really tells them they're only on this show for one thing: our entertainment. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 04/25/23 Full Review Lukas K Unsolved Mysteries is a reboot of the 1980s documentary of the same name for Netflix. In each episode, an unsolved criminal case is presented and the audience is asked for help at the end. "Unsolved Mysteries" really appealed to me as a mysteries fan. Of course, the cases are not all equally interesting, but in each case I asked myself the question "What could have happened?". While some mysteries are boring and have no place in the format in my opinion, that's just personal preference. I'm looking forward to the next season! Update: I personally find Season 3 very bad. There was only 1 episode that addressed any real mystery and the rest were pretty obvious. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/10/23 Full Review black b Que interesante temporada, desde suicidios y asesinatos hasta ovnis. Te refleja las distintas hipótesis del caso y te hace que te intereses en los casos expuestos en cada episodio, me encanta que se reflejen la vida de las personas y el como vivía la gente a su alrededor antes del acontecimiento del episodio. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Jarrod B WOW Netflix has delivered us with a new gritty docu series. The UFO episode is kinda unbelievable and hard to believe but the murder mysteries will draw you in. B+ Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/06/22 Full Review Read all reviews
