Yet with dystopian sci-fi in the ascendency, the Wachowskis are to be applauded for daring to strike a positive note. May 5, 2017 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review… Ed Power Daily Telegraph (UK) Top Critic This nakedly political show somehow manages to be free-spirited, rather than dull or polemical; its good intentions often border on goofy naiveté in a way that's charming rather than grating. May 5, 2017 | Full Review… David Sims The Atlantic Top Critic Sense8 may have had a slow start in Season 1, but Season 2 is a hell of a ride. Hold on tight. Apr 26, 2017 | Rating: B+ | Full Review… Liz Shannon Miller indieWire Top Critic Season 2 is such a beautiful examination of the themes of love, human relationships, and what identity is that the messy or less enthralling moments are worth pushing through. May 22, 2019 | Rating: 8/10 | Full Review… Jonathon Dornbush IGN Movies The series, about eight people from wildly different backgrounds who unite for the common purpose of liberation and defiance, has never been more relevant than it is now... May 22, 2019 | Full Review… Ella Donald Vanity Fair An absolutely joyous event, bursting with loads of thrilling fight scenes (watching Wachowski-directed shootouts are always a treat), glorious sensate sing-a-longs, emotional twists, sentimental celebrations, and, of course, one final massive orgy. May 22, 2019 | Full Review… Oliver Whitney ScreenCrush Not for the faint of heart, this show fires on all the sensory cylinders. May 22, 2019 | Full Review… Rebecca Farley Refinery29 [It] is a delicious conclusion to an ambitious global meld of faith, friendship, science, sexuality, tribes and identity. Dec 27, 2018 | Full Review… Dominic Patten Deadline Hollywood Daily The most cinematic, sprawling superhero series ever made. Jul 11, 2018 | Full Review… Mark Hughes Forbes Sense8 avoids tokenizing its characters, which involves giving each sensate a full backstory that helps viewers understand what motivates them. Jun 26, 2018 | Full Review… Sonia Rao Washington Post Top Critic It's messy, sure. It's also beautiful. Jun 18, 2018 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review… Lacy Baugher Tell-Tale TV It gets soapy, it gets heady, it gets hella sexy (cut to Wolfgang on rooftop with mystery woman), but above all else, it gets quite awesome. Hot take: This is peak Wachowskis. Feb 14, 2018 | Full Review… Justin Gerber Consequence of Sound View All Critic Reviews (28) Audience Reviews for Sense8: Season 2 Sep 12, 2019 I applaud Lilly Wachowski, Lana Wachowski, J. Michael Straczynski on a relatable Human story, told in the Sci-Fi genre. The series set itself the ambitious challenge of telling a single story in 8 parts; both Season I and II maintain a focus on the lives and parallel personal conflicts of the sensates, highlighting how the human condition transcends social/geo-political/gender labels. Somehow a show about 8 strangers scattered across the globe, with an extra-human ability to exist within a clustered mind never devolves too far into the fantastic choosing rather to explore the Human question of what makes Us like Them. Agyei-Boateng O Jan 18, 2019 Amazing work! Lifts film making to new heights in refusing to buckle under its own weight, a truly spectacular experience! Marshall W Jan 03, 2019 One of the best shows ever to come to TV. A perfect melding of complex characters and themes combined with stunning filming all around the world. Scott K Dec 31, 2018 One of the best shows ever made how could they cancel such a brilliant masterpiece? Nov 07, 2018 Probably one of the most emotionally charged and intriguing Sci-Fi series. Here, the futuristic aspects of technology are left in the dust and instead the question of what makes us human and humane are explored, how are we connected and why is that connection important. It is a shame the series was canceled but I am glad that they did an actual finale instead of the usual drop as if sci-fi watchers were not an important genre. Cemper B Aug 23, 2018 Couldn't wait for season 2. Best show on TV. Bug is absolutely wonderful this season and really became a part of the team. But my favorite trio by far and away is Lito, Hernando and Dani. An absolutely amazing show. Steve T Aug 14, 2018 our sensates are trying to stay alive with people on the run, people embracing new opportunities, embracing their faults and pasts... towards the end it's a bit of a rush job though and we were left with a bit of an empty feeling. Aug 08, 2018 Absolutely loved it 5 stars 100%.!!!!!!!! Jun 11, 2018 Fun ride from beginning to end. Jimmy M May 03, 2018 I loved the emotion and relational connections, of the Characters. But I could have done without the gratuitous Sex and violence. Storyline was a bit out of wack. Overall I enjoyed it.
