Verne Gay

Jul 12, 2016

[Showrunner and creator Sam Esmail is] a Kafka in the director’s chair, who sees alienation where everyone else sees a Facebook “like.” It’s as compelling and timely a vision as there is in a primetime series at the moment, and darkness is the price of admission. Read full review

Tom Long

Mr. Robot remains one of the most dizzying, intoxicating, challenging shows on television, a gripping look at mental illness and brilliance run amok, tied to an essentially sweet, if damaged, character. It’s a show that poses Big Questions and dares to leave them hanging. Read full review

Mark Peikert

The show’s centerpiece remains Malek’s mesmerizing turn as Elliot, as well as his chemistry with Slater‘s Mr. Robot. Excavating that much emotion from deadpan narration is a tough gig, but Malek continues to find new shades of neutral both in voiceover and in his scenes. Read full review

Mr. Robot returns for its second season 10 p.m. Wednesday, as enigmatic and intriguing as ever. Read full review

Mr. Robot and creator Esmail have earned this quirky, almost mild and studious, way to commence the second season; for fans, trust in the show has been established. Read full review

Jul 12, 2016

In its two-part, two-hour premiere, some problems from season one resurface, but, for the most part, this is entertaining, accomplished television that has to something to say. Read full review

Chuck Bowen

Jul 12, 2016

As usual with Mr. Robot, there's a sense that the creators care only about establishing pretenses to mount their formally self-conscious kitsch. The series is too busy being cool to matter. Read full review

I thought season 1 was really quite good, definitely above avgerage. Especially considering its a mainstream american series (vast majority are **** imo), it was a welcome and pleasant surprise. Season 2 is way better imo, and probably lands at my no. 1 all time season of television. I thinkI thought season 1 was really quite good, definitely above avgerage.

Unique series. Too much gratuitous sex, but even after deducting for that, this series is still a 10. Fantastic writing. Fantastic acting. Angela couldn't be creepier; Darlene is hilareous and a bad ass; Elliot is fascinating at all levels. Did I mention the writing was AWESOME --Unique series.

Relevant.I have viewed hour one and regret doing so... because I am drooling for hour two later today. Within moments of hour one it is clear that Season 1 was no fluke and Season 2 shoots out of the gate with swag and confidence. This is film quality television. Masterpiece. Relevant. Thrilling. Disturbing. Top-notch. If I recall there is a moment where Mr. Robot mentions something about "the rollercoaster" that Eliot is currently on - mentally. I'm buckled in - this feels like it will be another doozie of a season.... possibly even stronger than S1 if that is even possible.… Expand

As an audience I personally doesn't like being cheated on, Mr. Robot :2 is just that, the suspense of season 01, still continues, we don't understand what is going on, who is planing, when we get to know all in last episode, season ends, do the writer, director wants us to watch the nextAs an audience I personally doesn't like being cheated on, Mr. Robot :2 is just that, the suspense of season 01, still continues, we don't understand what is going on, who is planing, when we get to know all in last episode, season ends, do the writer, director wants us to watch the next season because of cliff hangers? The season is not enjoyable at all, confusing, over dramatized, and is pushed beyond complexity.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I did not like the second season. It was generally slow with a few better episodes, but nowhere as good the first one which was superb. Frankly the show should have been finished at season 1. Now when the hackers achieved their goal it's all about FBI tracking them which is much less interesting and also about Elliot schizpfrenia getting worse to the point that not only he talks to his dead father but also having problems with differentiating between what is real and what is not.… Expand

Started to get a headache a couple of episodes in. Took me a while to realize why. This show is not complicated or deep, it's monotonous and self-important.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Over-hyped, Instagram-filter-ish, self-important vacuousness populated by cardboard-cutout, two-dimensional characters performed by lackluster actors. Rami Malek, the lead, is actually alright in his performance, though the "autistic and/or socially inept genius" cliché was already an exhausted resource by the time Mr. Robot was first released: Sherlock, Elementary, Monk, the Mentalist, etc... Not to mention that the whole premise behind Mr Robot (both the split personality and the project to bring down financial institutions) are literally lifted from Fight Club. Don't waste your time with this show. The second season is even worse than the first one.… Expand
