View Details Show More Episodes Critic Reviews for Hunters (2016) Season 1 All Critics (14) | Top Critics (5) | Fresh (0) | Rotten (14) Honestly, I seldom had any idea what was going on in the first hour of Hunters, which flashes back and forward and features hallucinations and nightmares, with action shot mostly in the dark. Apr 11, 2016 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review… Gail Pennington St. Louis Post-Dispatch Top Critic I'm not sure if there'll be a person in America who'll feel emotionally invested in Flynn's plight. And if the series is meant to be any metaphorical commentary on our real-world war on terrorism, well, that's not immediately evident either. Apr 12, 2016 | Rating: B- | Full Review… Ray Rahman Entertainment Weekly Top Critic Hunters is a dour sci-fi procedural whose every story beat is joylessly copied from more interesting shows, and whose pretensions toward political allegory are too simplistic to be truly offensive. Apr 11, 2016 | Rating: D | Full Review… Dennis Perkins AV Club Top Critic Hunters seems as if it might be too convoluted and coy to be worth the mental energy. Apr 11, 2016 | Full Review… Neil Genzlinger New York Times Top Critic Things get bloody but boring in the war on alien terror. May 3, 2016 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review… Edie Nugent Common Sense Media Clunky dialogue and an uninspired visual style seal 'Hunters' fate, despite McMahon's best efforts. Apr 13, 2016 | Rating: 1/5 | Full Review… Allison Keene Collider Grim, humorless, and instantly off-putting -- the shot of a naked, bloody woman being kept prisoner in a cage is your early warning -- Hunters is a misfire from the Syfy network. Apr 12, 2016 | Full Review… Ken Tucker Yahoo! TV Based on the first episode, Hunters is a really bad series bogged down with mediocre aspirations, pathetic execution, and a student-film budget. Apr 12, 2016 | Full Review… Tim Surette TV.com Hunters borrows many familiar beats from other TV shows and films. Too bad it doesn't weave those samples into a wholly original or inspiring new tune. Apr 11, 2016 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review… Curt Wagner TV Show Patrol Why are they here and what do they want? I watched a couple of hours of this dreck and I have no clue. Apr 11, 2016 | Full Review… Mark A. Perigard Boston Herald The show's best attribute is the sound effect that makes good use of a bug-like clicking noise to represent the aliens. But that's not enough to recommend this blah, bungled effort. Apr 11, 2016 | Full Review… Rob Owen Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Not even an anti-terrorism hero as dynamic as Jack Bauer could bring life to a project as numbingly generic as Syfy's dreary Hunters. Apr 11, 2016 | Full Review… Matt Roush TV Insider View All Critic Reviews (14) Audience Reviews for Hunters (2016): Season 1 Feb 24, 2020 Ridiculous. Can't believe Jordan Peele is responsible for this trash. M P Feb 23, 2020 How is it that every show the critics hate, and the audience likes/ turns out to be good show? Applies here, again. Dick J Jul 28, 2016 Somebody at SyFy forgot to pay "Top Critics / Paid Critics" to write a review. Hunters was a little slow the first few episodes; however, picked up as it got into the back stories of the characters. Sad, very sad we will not get a season 2. Micahel J Jul 24, 2016 Good show with potential for more. Marvin F Jul 11, 2016 Pretty awesome. Cool action scenes. 9/10 John T Jun 28, 2016 It's a good sci-fi tv series. It has a certain je ne sais quoi, a good suspense and intrigue that can captivate the audience Djdaniel S Jun 17, 2016 I don't know why the critics panned it . I thought it was pretty good. milissajean p Jun 09, 2016 There are things I find about this series interesting. I'm at episode 5 and feel like its better than what a lot of the critics are saying. There are obvious annoyances that would be spoilers so I'll not mention them. It might be that I'm just in need of something new so it seems better than it is. I do like the language that they've created, but I dislike the obvious rips from Predator or Star Trek Voyager's hunters. Phillip M May 31, 2016 Overall this is an AWESOME SHOW! Given the absolute garbage that gets ratings, including some SyFy shows, I am beyond convinced America is a nation of dolts, morons and imbeciles!! Michael C May 30, 2016 not that bad at all. Nice acting from Britne Oldford & Nathan Phillips.
