What to Know

Critics Consensus

Hell freezes over in a wintry The Walking Dead finale that takes full advantage of "The Storm" with some chilly scares and a meditative, mournful tone -- although this elegiac installment arguably would have best worked as a preamble instead of a denouement.

4/5
Kudos to [The Walking Dead] for not only delivering what we needed, but also for doing so in a way that's unlike anything we've seen on this show -- specifically, with a wicked blizzard. Go to Full Review Jeff Stone IndieWire Mar 25, 2019
B+
Nine seasons is a lot of years for a show to be on the air, and if The Walking Dead wants to remain vital going into Season 10, it has to continue to find new ways to change up the formula like this. It's good that the show can still surprise. Go to Full Review Alex McLevy AV Club Mar 25, 2019

The combination of CGI and what I assume is a serious amount of artificial snow flocking on the landscape succeeded in creating an icy environment, the perfect setting in which to marinate while we watched the chilly emotional fallout... Go to Full Review Alyse Wax Syfy Wire May 25, 2019
Why would some zombies freeze where they stand while others are buried in the snow, but can still attack? I guess maybe the frozen ones hadn't eaten in a while. Whatever; it was some cool visuals. Go to Full Review Brian Richards Pajiba Apr 2, 2019
I haven't been this entertained by The Walking Dead for quite some time and if Season 10 is every bit as good and consistent as this season was, then I'm definitely looking forward to seeing what her and the writers have in store. Go to Full Review Dustin Rowles Uproxx Apr 1, 2019
It's a regrouping episode, one that allows the series to go into hiatus on a hopeful note. It's a much better alternative for viewers than spending the next six months grieving the deaths of the ten characters killed in last week's episode. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
