The series has earned a solid 6.7/10 rating on IMDb, based on over 4400 reviews. One viewer described it as “gripping” and “intelligent,” saying that 56 Days “pulls you in gently… and then refuses to let go.”
The story begins with a straightforward idea, but quickly develops into a gripping and complex psychological thriller. It builds suspense naturally, without resorting to predictable surprises. The dialogue and writing are precise and meaningful – every conversation feels purposeful and carefully considered.
One viewer shared similar feelings, saying they enjoy characters who are introverted and investigate mysteries, especially when those characters are complex and have hidden depths. They also praised the show’s writing, saying it’s engaging and keeps you guessing.
The mystery thriller currently has a 58% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes, based on 26 reviews. Critics at RogerEbert.com gave it just one star and called the writing and direction “dreadful.”
According to The Age (Australia), the film 56 Days reveals too much of its story and its surprising twists too quickly, essentially exposing how the plot works. However, The Wrap had a more favorable view, describing the film as “entertaining.”
If you enjoyed 56 Days or are looking for another series on Prime Video, Vanished, starring Sam Claflin and Kaley Cuoco, might be a good choice. It’s a story about a couple whose lives are completely disrupted.
56 Days is streaming on Prime Video.
