Umbrella Academy season 3 reviews
The Umbrella Academy season 3 reviews are in — and they are mostly positive. It has a 91 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes (opens in new tab). The critical consensus reads: “The Umbrella Academy unfurls a bit beyond a manageable scope in this overstuffed season, but there remains all the gonzo creativity and resonant character relationships that fans enroll for.” AV Club’s Jenna Scherer (opens in new tab) writes, “Season three starts out strong, with a rollicking storyline, compelling mysteries, and a handful of killer twists, not to mention three musical montages within the first 15 minutes of episode one.” Nate Richard at Collider (opens in new tab) calls it “the most emotional and personal season yet,” adding that it “blends together the moodiness of Season 1 with the brisk-pacing, bizarro nature, and enormous heart of Season 2.” IGN’s Alex Stedman (opens in new tab) says season 3 “may initially seem less inventive and action-packed than previous seasons, but what it loses in wackiness, it gains in heart and the clarity of its message.” Tara Bennett at Paste Magazine (opens in new tab) is less enthused, noting “the cracks are increasingly apparent when it comes to finding satisfying reasons for all of the cyclical pandemonium.”
