An Interview with God

An Interview with God has quietly become one of the more dependable crime dramas currently available in Australia on Amazon Prime Video and Beamafilm, and in the UK on Amazon Prime Video. A tight runtime that never overstays its welcome. 280 people have weighed in on TMDB, and the verdict leans heavily positive. David Strathairn's performance alone is worth the time investment. Put it on tonight on Amazon Prime Video and see for yourself.

An Interview with God arrived without much fanfare and built its audience the hard way — through word of mouth. At its heart, An Interview with God understands what makes crime drama work — character first, plot second. An up-and-coming journalist finds his world and faith increasingly challenged when he's granted the interview of a lifetime – with someone who claims to be God. David Strathairn and Brenton Thwaites lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. It was released in 2018. What distinguishes the best crime dramas from the rest is whether the character work can carry scenes where the mystery takes a breath — An Interview with God passes that test consistently. There is real craft here, even in the moments that do not fully land.

If you cannot walk away from a good mystery, An Interview with God will keep you hooked. It has built its own audience without needing a direct comparison. Best experienced as a single, sustained watch from start to finish. Watch David Strathairn work — it is a masterclass in the genre. Few crime dramas earn their twists this consistently.
