Critic Reviews

It is gripping, well acted and beautifully written. Most of all, its multiple layers of mystery should keep viewers coming back for more, week after week.

While we don’t know the identity of Jane Doe yet, the pilot drops some hefty clues, ones that only touch the surface of what looks to be a compelling conspiracy thriller.

The parsing of detail is effective because by the end of Monday's pilot, I was surprised by an unexpected reaction: I actually wanted to know what happens next week.

Blindspot (not the title you’d expect or hope for when your series is about a woman covered in tattoos) has more than enough going for it early on, despite some real bouts of silliness, that it’s one of those few and elusive pilots that can be endorsed for at least initial evaluation. The reward for spending an hour is mostly worth it.

The suspense is ripping, the combat violent, in its own peculiarly satisfying way.

A promising mystery thriller with a pair of strong, intriguing characters at the center.

The thriller created by Martin Gero can seem overly intricate at times, but the conspiracy doesn’t get in the way of the show’s early momentum. Where it goes from here is definitely worth checking out.

The whodunit and dunwhat? elements of Blindspot are terse, fast-pitched and intriguing.

Clever, well-plotted, if predictable, it borrows liberally from every spy movie and conspiracy thriller ever made.

This visually arresting thriller suggests that Gero is not easily pigeonholed.
