Digital Spy enjoyed the show, highlighting its exciting action sequences and interesting plot developments, as well as the strong connection between the actors. The review also mentioned that the series builds suspense well, constantly raising new questions. However, it felt that the show’s pacing could have been better.
Dwan and Rory Keenan have fantastic chemistry together, and the tension and lack of trust between their characters make the story even more compelling.
According to Decider, the series Blackshore is a reasonably enjoyable small-town mystery, boosted by a powerful performance from Lisa Dwan.
The Irish Times described the show as fun and engaging, despite its imperfections, and noted it was one of the better thrillers RTÉ has aired lately.
IMDb users generally seem to really enjoy the series, with many describing it as captivating and full of suspenseful moments that keep you on the edge of your seat.
One viewer called it a cleverly crafted mystery, praising how the story keeps you guessing until the very end. Another said it was simply enjoyable and easy to follow.
