Citadel, Amazon Prime Video’s high-budget spy thriller series featuring Richard Madden and Priyanka Chopra Jonas, has failed to live up to expectations and hype.
Despite great buzz surrounding the show’s massive $300 million budget and promised excellence, Citadel falls flat as a predictable, unoriginal series that relies heavily on tired spy genre tropes.
Its poor writing, lackluster action scenes, and not so great-looking production make it an unengaging ripoff of better-known spy thrillers like the Bourne Identity and Mission Impossible.
The show was widely criticized by prominent Hollywood reviewers for being a subpar imitation of superior spy movies.
Priyanka Chopra grabs the attention with her mesmerizing screen presence, easily stealing the spotlight in every scene she appears in. Ultimately, Citadel fails to offer anything new or exciting to fans of the genre. Spy genre fans can try Citadel with low expectations.
