‘The Agency’ Review: Michael Fassbender Can’t Save This Cliché-Heavy Spy Drama
The WrapStory by Zaki Hasan
scrn logline
Michael Fassbender's spy drama 'The Agency' fails to deliver fresh thrills, trapped in a web of tired clichés on Paramount+'s new premium service.
beat sheet
- Despite Fassbender's top-tier talent, the show's plot and characters are painfully predictable, leaving critics unimpressed with this latest entry in the crowded spy genre.
- Paramount's decision to launch 'The Agency' as a Paramount+ exclusive is a risky move, as the uninspired series may struggle to lure new subscribers to the fledgling premium platform.
