The 24-episode "finale" has lacked any real sense of urgency or momentum in terms of building toward a finish thus far. Go to Full Review Alex McLevy AV Club 10/11/2021

It's got just about everything you could want from an exciting installment of The Walking Dead, and yet none of it comes together in a very satisfying way. Go to Full Review Richard Rys New York Magazine/Vulture 10/11/2021
4/5
While there are some undeniably strange things afoot at the Commonwealth, it's the Reapers who take center stage in this relentlessly fast-paced first-third finale. Go to Full Review Ron Hogan Den of Geek 10/11/2021
3.5/5
Director Sharat Raju does a great job of amplifying the tension and anxiety present in Mountain's script. The trapped survivors in Alexandria echo the original trapped survivors in Night of the Living Dead. Go to Full Review Paul Dailly TV Fanatic 10/11/2021
3.5/5
While the action and stakes were definitely present throughout this midseason finale, there should have been more resolution. Go to Full Review Erik Kain Forbes 10/11/2021
The mid-season finale (mid-mid-season?) was one of the decent episodes, minus some irritating bits. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
