Series Brief

Overview

Restless in the Florida Keys, Etta Tiger Jonze dreams of a life in Miami's glittering, sub-tropical kingdom. When her family's drug-running business shatters in tragedy, however, Etta embarks on a dangerous journey through Miami's neon-lit underbelly that will define who she is and what she's ultimately capable of.

Critical Reception

What critics are saying

Score 58 /100

Peacock's crime drama M.I.A. received mixed reviews from critics, who largely agreed that while the show delivers high-octane action, it stumbles in its broader narrative execution. Given its connection to Ozark creator Bill Dubuque, reviewers noted that the series shares a similar blend of smart, tense storytelling and frustrating pacing flaws.

“Fight scenes pop, and desperation fuels ingenuity.”

“A vast, bloody narrative full of secrets and betrayals”

“showcases smart writing and strong performances but faces challenges in pacing and character development”

“short of good writing, sensible plotting and any moral storytelling.”
