Prime Video's Malice aims to deliver a tense thriller but struggles to sustain suspense, even with a star-powered cast led by David Duchovny. The Amazon series centers on the secretly scheming Adam (Jack Whitehall), who arrives at the Greek vacation home of the ultra-wealthy Tanner family, signaling trouble from the very first scene. Critics note that Malice taps into a familiar Ripley-inspired vibe but doesn’t fully commit to an original or gripping premise. Duchovny’s presence and Whitehall’s performance provide occasional sparks, yet the show remains curiously devoid of sustained tension, with pacing that veers between teased psychological intrigue and underwhelming payoff. For fans of glossy, character-driven thrillers, Malice may hold some appeal, but it tends to undercut its potential with uneven storytelling. If you’re seeking a high-stakes Prime Video thriller, you may be disappointed by Malice’s uneven tempo, though Duchovny and Whitehall offer notable performances that keep viewers watching. In short: stylish production and a strong cast cannot fully compensate for the lack of consistently gripping suspense.
