Brad Newsome Sydney Morning Herald 03/04/2021
It's all quite brilliantly imagined and handsomely rendered, with scenes of visceral hand-to-hand combat and torture that remind us that we're really going backwards, but a dappling of light to keep us watching. Go to Full Review

The show is expertly plotted, well-paced, with strong performances across the board -- especially Masucci and Foroutan's Varvara. Go to Full Review
Emma Stefansky Thrillist 07/01/2021
If you're into dystopian sci-fi where characters fight with swords and horses and wear gray-toned outfits with lots of jackets and laces and say things like "We're safe in the Refugium" and "the cube," then you're going to dig this. Go to Full Review

Tribes of Europa can provide an accessible gateway to a pan-European public sphere. Perhaps Europe's integrationists can take note... Go to Full Review

Alex M Feb 10 Worth a watch, but for the wrong reasons. The plot diverges three ways almost immediately. Two of the subplots are more predictable than a Russian election, and the third is so bland I had to edit this paragraph when I remembered it existed. There's a MacGuffin subplot, a liberation subplot, and a stuff-happens-to-pass-time subplot. The characters are well-acted but painfully one-dimensional. The theme walks a fine line between gritty and campy. The licensed music choices are immersion-breaking. What's good about the show is it has potential. What's bad about that potential is that it's a blatant ripoff of the Degenesis worldbuilding, not long after Netflix turned down the IP for being "too European". Mild spoilers ahead. Degenesis' Sleepers are called Atlanteans. They have pre-apocalypse tech and artifacts that everybody wants for unexplained reasons. Degenesis' Clanners are called Origines. They are honest people just trying to get by. Degenesis' Scrappers are called Scavvers (which to be fair is the sole improvement in an ocean of washed-out graywater). They trade artifacts and stuff, and the comic relief character is one. Degenesis' Praha (Prague) is called Little Praha. It was destroyed by the Apocal... I mean Crows. Apocalyptics of the Crowlands who trade slaves, do drugs, host pit fights, and whose ranks are named after birds... are called Crows, who for plot reason never lie (except when they do). And for some reason their bodyguards are Spitalians without badges or medicine. The good guy group is a little different, because instead of being a watered-down Degenesis faction, it's a watered-down Fallout faction: the Brotherhood of Steel without power armor. The big reveal at the end seems kinda cool until you think that the main plot could have been solved by a single sentence said by the Atlantean at the beginning, which he had every chance and motivation to do, but only didn't because that would make the story unnecessary. See more Tyler S @Ninjats22 10/10/2024 A bit different than most other Sci-Fi series, decent budget from the looks of the environments and production elements, good acting from most of the main characters, it never slows down too much for too long and it always keeps wind to the back of the main characters and always has a tidbit of light to keep you going through the tunnel to see what's on the other side See more Larry R 01/12/2024 Weird disjointed plot - shallow characters.
