'Rabbit Hole' Review: Kiefer Sutherland Returns to His Action Roots (Variety)

In 'Rabbit Hole,' Kiefer Sutherland plays a modern-day Robin Hood who becomes enmeshed in a massive conspiracy, and is forced to go on the run.

Meanwhile, with all of the twists and reveals in “Rabbit Hole,” these guys have set an awful hard pace for themselves for the remaining episodes, and it could be a challenge to keep the story’s momentum. It’s also worth noting “Rabbit Hole” isn’t billed as a limited series, so whether this story wraps by end of season or continues for another run remains to be seen. As for the action, there’s enough to drive each episode and keep the stakes high as the story unravels, and Weir gets closer to the truth. However, those villainous motives may not stick with viewers who are tired of hearing about a certain former president, fake news and the state of democracy. By the time Weir is sent into his tailspin, hoping to uncover the truth alongside an unlikely team, viewers who enjoy watching Sutherland do his high-stakes thriller thing will be hooked. And that’s when the real fun (or the rabbit hole, if you must) begins.

“It shows, in very simple terms, how easy it is to become a victim to someone who really knows how to manipulate your information.” “As I look back on it, it looks like there might have been some real thought put into the career, but the truth is, I was just trying to pay my bills. I think that this is a potentially very dangerous thing that’s happening in our society.” “When someone asked me, what’s the secret (to shooting a scene) when a guy walks up and takes a skateboard and smacks you in the back of the head, I said, the only secret is that you try not to do it twice,” jokes Sutherland in reference to a wind-knocking scene involving Weir and a younger assailant. “This technical revolution is something that we’re going to have to adapt to as people and I think it’s really added a bonus for our show to have it as a backdrop,” adds Sutherland. It’s his recipe, he says, for avoiding misinformation.

Kiefer Sutherland Interview: Rabbit Hole (Screen Rant)

Kiefer Sutherland explains what makes Rabbit Hole, his new thriller series premiering on Paramount Plus, the perfect cocktail of several genres.

Some of it is on purpose to deflect and confuse a potential adversary, and some of is not really what it appears to be. In that circumstance, he's created a world around him, and this is something that we discover over the course of the entire season. I got a call from John and Glenn, who were interested in developing a show that was going to harken back to Three Days of the Condor, Marathon Man, The Parallax View — films like that, and those were the films that I really grew up on and fell in love with. That's one of the pluses of kind of technology, and where we've gone with that. [There are] nuances, and the fact that they've woven comedy and a love story into what is a thriller, where the stakes are life and death? But 2023 sees his character John facing a much more advanced and personal form of cyber terror in Rabbit Hole, where he can no one from his employees to his closest friends.

Watch Rabbit Hole's Kiefer Sutherland, Charles Dance And More ... (Cinema Blend)

Kiefer Sutherland, Charles Dance and Meta Golding tried to quickly explain their new complex Paramount+ series, Rabbit Hole.

[Tywin Lannister on Game of Thrones](https://www.cinemablend.com/television/Craziest-Thing-Tywin-Lannister-Ever-Did-Game-Thrones-68484.html) and [Lord Louis Mountbatten on The Crown](https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2463876/the-crown-season-3-has-cast-a-game-of-thrones-vet) for example, succinctly described Rabbit Hole. Like any rabbit hole, there is a lot to uncover, discover and get stuck in when it comes to this series. The 24 alum explained the overall concept of the series to CinemaBlend, and told us all about the world in which this espionage thriller takes place. [his new show Rabbit Hole](https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2567328/kiefer-sutherland-has-a-new-streaming-show-that-kinda-sounds-like-a-24-spinoff), it makes sense that he’d have the longest answer to this question. However, Kiefer Sutherland, Charles Dance and Meta Golding attempted to explain their new series quickly, and let’s just say two of them were successful, while the other fell down a bit of a rabbit hole, for lack of a better term, showing just how complex Rabbit Hole is. Trying to boil down this espionage thriller is nearly impossible because of all its twists, turns and surprises.

'Rabbit Hole' Review: Kiefer Sutherland Leads a Silly Espionage ... (IMDb)

IMDb, the world's most popular and authoritative source for movie, TV and celebrity content.

It is the type of series that is best when it cuts through all the fluff to just embrace the absurdity of each revelation. While the show does lose much of its steam when it gets caught up in expository flashbacks and conversations that remain more than a bit clunky, the core of just seeing a smarmy Sutherland navigate crisis after crisis is often quite fun. Narrative coherence is consistently thrown out the window; this is all about getting to the next development that may just reverse everything else we had understood up until then.

[Succession](https://www.avclub.com/tv/reviews/succession) and [Yellowjackets](https://www.avclub.com/tv/reviews/yellowjackets), it isn’t a prestige drama. [24](https://www.avclub.com/tv/reviews/24) and the ABC-turned-Netflix political series [Designated Survivor](https://www.avclub.com/tv/reviews/designated-survivor). It’s also not a thoughtful spy series like the recent [Slow Horses](https://www.avclub.com/tv/reviews/slow-horses-2022). It’s a confusing arc that, at least in the first four episodes, doesn’t improve. [Rabbit Hole](https://www.avclub.com/tv/reviews/rabbit-hole-2023) doesn’t do justice to the wild storylines about to unfold. But the show can also get corny, like a wrongful arrest scene where John gets everyone on the street to chant “We see you” at the cops. John’s profession includes manipulating stock markets and other forms of corporate sabotage (think infiltrating focus groups, creating fake news stories, etc.) with the help of his recruits—in case you were wondering what an espionage agent does. [Person Of Interest](https://www.avclub.com/tv/reviews/person-of-interest) or [MacGyver,](https://www.avclub.com/10-episodes-that-show-why-macgyver-was-more-than-a-punc-1798236868) dialed up several notches.) The show takes advantage of its streaming platform to tell a jumbled but fast-paced narrative in its almost 50-minute outings (the first four episodes were provided for review), even though it takes a while to get going. The writing for characters beyond the four leads is downright tragic, especially for the FBI’s Jo Madi (Enid Graham). But it becomes a fun endeavor once the series’ gimmick is embraced for what it is: a vivid exploration of the surveillance age told through tropes and subtle hilarity. Or when he’s kidnapping someone and says, “Patty Hearst had to be easier than this.” Cue the eye roll.

'Rabbit Hole' Review: Kiefer Sutherland Gets up to More Spywork in ... (Collider.com)

Rabbit Hole, the espionage thriller series starring Kiefer Sutherland, revolves around the silly spectacle of its premise rather than serious tension.

That is just the way that the show rolls; there is nothing that will hold it back from throwing in more chaos. Again, none of this will be spoiled, but it has the potential to undo almost everything that took place from the very beginning. Indeed, much of the plot seems like it is all about setting up misdirects to serve as a smokescreen for what is really playing out. It is the type of series that is best when it cuts through all the fluff to just embrace the absurdity of each revelation. There is a cartoonish undercurrent to such moments, as Rabbit Hole is a show that is framed around the spectacle of its premise rather than a more serious tension. Logic is whatever the series needs it to be as it is all rather slick, waving away most anything that would drag down the story.
