More Show More Episodes Critic Reviews for Combat Hospital Season 1 All Critics (14) | Top Critics (9) | Fresh (6) | Rotten (8) It's too bad Combat Hospital is such an uninspired piece of work. Jun 21, 2011 | Full Review… Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe Top Critic Combat Hospital still has flashes of intelligence. Definitely worth a second look. Jun 21, 2011 | Rating: B- | Full Review… Verne Gay Newsday Top Critic A smart, sedate Canadian production. Jun 21, 2011 | Rating: B+ | Full Review… Ed Bark Uncle Barky Top Critic In spite of its serious subject matter, there's something about Combat Hospital that feels like a gag, or at least like one of those trumped-up TV shows they slip into real movies for the sake of comedy. Jun 21, 2011 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review… Kari Croop Common Sense Media Not bad, but not something I'm going to be rushing back to watch. Jun 21, 2011 | Full Review… Alan Sepinwall HitFix If it's willing to be a little more creative and take some chances, there may be more story potential. Jun 21, 2011 | Rating: 3.8/5 | Full Review… Christine Orlando TV Fanatic The "medical drama" is far too paltry to sustain the series without ramping up the relevance of the war context. Jun 21, 2011 | Rating: 3/10 | Full Review… Renee Scolaro Rathke PopMatters It may not be the worst new drama to hit TV screens this summer, but it's certainly the blandest. Jun 21, 2011 | Rating: C- | Full Review… Todd VanDerWerff AV Club Top Critic Combat Hospital has accomplished what a few years ago I would have thought impossible: it has made the dramatizing of an ongoing war boring. Jul 6, 2011 | Full Review… James Poniewozik TIME Magazine Top Critic Not the best pacing considering the subject matter.
