Critic Reviews for Enlightened: Season 1
All Critics (28) | Top Critics (19) | Fresh (22) | Rotten (6)
A rare HBO misfire - but I do hope Amy finds peace.
A black comedy working many shades of gray, Enlightened is about dark mornings of the soul and the fool's-golden glow of the new convert, and it measures the weight of the world with an eccentric scale.
Dern is fantastic as Amy - you cringe as her histrionics drive people away, and cringe again as she tries to suppress her feelings behind a veneer of New Age peacefulness.
The wonderful new HBO series Enlightened is a heartbreaker/dreammaker.
The show definitely grows on you.
The underlying black humor is what keeps Enlightened interesting.
