Tom's Guide Verdict: 'How to Get to Heaven from Belfast'
- Rating: 4.5/5 stars
- Verdict: "How to Get from Heaven to Belfast" blends the hysterical and very Irish humor of "Derry Girls" with a well-paced mystery plot. Creator Lisa McGee strikes a perfect balance between sarcastic comedy and genre thrills, but it's the chemistry and camaraderie between its three utterly fantastic female leads that is most heavenly in this Netflix show.
- Where to watch: "How to Get to Heaven from Belfast is on Netflix from Feb. 12
“How to Get to Heaven from Belfast” is a reminder that you don’t always know what you want. When Netflix confirmed it would be the streaming home of “Derry Girls” creator Lisa McGee’s latest TV project, my wish was a series that would merely offer more of the same. And while there is certainly common ground between the two shows, “How to Get to Heaven from Belfast” sees McGee take a wild swing into the mystery genre. And knock it out of the park.
