4/5
Great work from the cast again, and some beautifully designed shots, particularly the wobbly angles and dreamlike camerawork in the assault on Division 3. Go to Full Review Sean T. Collins New York Times 03/09/2017
It's not just superheroes and horror that coexist on the show and among David's multiple personalities: The good show and the shaky one share a head space as well - ours. Go to Full Review Alan Sepinwall Uproxx 03/09/2017
Great. Terrifying. More, please. Go to Full Review Nick Johnston Vanyaland 02/19/2019
