With 5 reviews published so far, the ‘Pretty Little Liars: A New Sin’ series, a reboot of the beloved ‘Pretty Little Liars’, has earned 100% approval on Rotten Tomatoes.
The general consensus is that the production delivers interesting mysteries, and the horrific vibe, centered around a typical slasher formula, highlights and differentiates this reboot from the original series.
We separate the excerpts from the main criticisms:
“The production manages to capture the spirit of the original series, but in a new era. The plot brings an interesting new mystery, updated with modern and relevant drama. (United Press International)
“A teen drama full of mystery and twists. You don’t need to have watched the original series, as the plot does a good job of keeping you up to date with what happened. (Mama’s Greeky)
Have fun watching:
“If you don’t think too much about the logistics of its mysteries, the show offers enough intrigue to hold your attention until the next episode. That might not seem like much, but many reboots have failed to even deliver that, making ‘Original Sin’ standout. (Variety)
“This reboot might not be as addictive as its predecessor, but anyone who loves teen thrillers about cute mean girls will love this series. It’s like a mix between ‘Clube dos Cinco’ and ‘Scream’ .(decision maker)
“For fans of the original series, this reboot is worth seeing. The plot takes all the intrigue and mystery of ‘Pretty Little Liars’ and creates something groundbreaking. (Coller Magazine)
It should be remembered that the production will officially premiere on July 28.
