FULL STORY ======================================================================

Netflix latest thriller is a binge-worthy treat that has got viewers talking and critics raving.

The show in question, Danish drama Secrets We Keep or Reservatet in its native tongue has rocketed up the Netflix charts since its release on May 15 and is currently third in the streamers top 10, making it well on its way to becoming one of the best Netflix shows.

But it's not just audiences who cant get enough of the new thriller, with critics giving it such strong reviews that it's sitting at a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

Drawing favorable comparisons to the platforms numerous Harlan Coben adaptations, Secrets We Keep follows the fallout of the disappearance of a young au pair in an affluent Copenhagen suburb.

Suspecting her neighbours of foul play, business exec and mother Cecile
(Marie Bach Hansen) undertakes her own investigation, soon discovering that numerous members of her upper-class friend group may have had a part to play in the events.

Proving that themes around class and social norms are global concepts,
Secrets We Keep delves into societal divides and the, well, secrets that bubble just below the surface of the seemingly perfect lives of the wealthy suburban set. The show also draws on similar themes as recent Netflix sensation Adolescence as it touches on internet-fueled misogyny and the 'manosphere' culture among teenage boys.

While not as harrowing as Stephen Grahams show, Secrets We Keep which you
can watch the trailer for below is a gripping binge-watch, particularly for fans of Cobens brand of suburban darkness. What are the critics saying about Secrets We Keep?

With the show currently enjoying a perfect score over on Rotten Tomatoes,
it's safe to say critics are loving Netflixs Danish drama, with our friends over on Toms Guide calling it one of the best binge-watches of 2025 so far.

Colliders review compares the thriller to two of the biggest shows of the year, even excelling them in some areas, saying: Secrets We Keep explores similar thematic territory to this year's most zeitgeisty hits Adolescence
and The White Lotus , and in some ways handles its dark material even better, while critic Pramit Chatterjee calls it essential viewing for all. (Image credit: Netflix) What's the subscriber's verdict?

Viewers, however, arent quite as universal in their praise, with RTs Audience Score sitting at a respectable but unremarkable 76%.

One Reddit user criticised the shows relatively short runtime, saying This series felt like it needed 2-3 more episodes to flesh out the characters and storyline a little more while another found the story predictable, saying I had the whole plot pretty much figured out by the second episode. A third
user didnt pull any punches with their verdict: This show is bad, like so
bad. Comment from r/netflix

However, others have praised the drama as thought provoking and nuanced, with one user saying they binged it and loved it, while another commented: I have just watched the whole season, it was very good.
