What to Know

Critics Consensus

A hodgepodge of science fiction homage, Another Life lacks the distinctive spark necessary to set it apart from the array of stories it aspires to be.

Another Life is an unwieldy mashup of Arrival and any number of space-odyssey adventure serials, and struggles to maintain clarity or depth with either half of its bifurcated storyline. Go to Full Review Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com 07/25/2019
Netflix's Another Life sometimes feels like it's trying to break a record for sci-fi fiction tropes. Go to Full Review Tim Goodman The Hollywood Reporter 07/23/2019
Conversely, there's too much emotion for no real reason. No wonder Sackhoff's face is almost always in duress. Go to Full Review Wojciech Góralczyk Pajiba 09/05/2019
Honestly, it has filled me with an exhilarating, hate-filled joy. There are moments when you feel like you're about to choke on the dumb, but then the soundtrack slams you with an ill-timed EDM number, and instead you start surfing the maudlin, cackling.

I'm convinced that Another Life is a unique space drama, but unfortunately genuity does not always mean good, and Another Life fails to be an immersive experience like that of the genres it draws from. Go to Full Review Pat Stacey The Herald (Ireland) 08/06/2019
If Another Life were a spoof called Instagrammers in Space, it would be a work of genius. Unfortunately, it takes itself deadly seriously, to the point of unwitting self-parody. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Edward L @Glyndower Feb 9 An interesting if derivative idea spoiled by the casting of Katee 'The Smirk' Sackhoff who delivers the same dull performance that made her so annoying in 'Battlestar Galactica'.

It's drama for weirdos dressed up as sci-fi. See more Salvatore D Mar 7 Storia fantascientifica avvincente, con una trama che si sviluppa bene e con un finale, seppur affrettato, convincente e piacevole. Mi ha divertito davvero tanto. E i protagonisti sono tutti molto bravi. See more Robert M 02/21/2025 The reason why I think another life should have another season is because of the aliens, and the last part of the show is my favorite and that’s why I think there should be another season See more thomas a 02/16/2025 Harte Sci-Fi Serie mit zwischenmenschlichen Abgründen.
