Mr. Robot: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Kelly Lawler USA Today Dark, disturbing and full of twists and turns, the series became USA's breakout drama for a reason. Nov 10, 2021 Full Review Mr. Robot: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Deborah Ross Daily Mail (UK) This is tensely plotted, tensely directed and hypnotically compelling. Rated: 5/5 Aug 30, 2017 Full Review Mr. Robot: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe Mr. Robot isn't perfect, but it's far from the dismissible piece of dullness that I initially thought I saw. Jul 1, 2016 Full Review Mr. Robot: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Charles Mudede The Stranger (Seattle, WA) What's great about Mr. Robot, and what one hopes is not lost in its second season, is its tone. Aug 22, 2018 Full Review Mr. Robot: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Nick Venable CinemaBlend But the first thing the show will have to do is get Elliot's brain back on the right track after all of Season 1's revelations, and that won't be easy. But you will be watching.

Audience Member Good show, unfortunately it doesn’t bring a realistic solution for capitalism, maybe because it doesn’t exist, capitalism continues to be the best with all its problems. However the show did a good job pointing the problems of capitalism. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/06/24 Full Review Audience Member One of the greatest seasons of television I've ever watched. Love the way the show tackles depression and loneliness, tackles themes of capitalism, power, etc. Love the thriller/drama aspect of the plot and the dark way it's filmed Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/12/24 Full Review Marc L Re-watching it for the first time since it premiered. It gives me that Fight Club vibe and makes viewing "in the know" so to speak . a brand new viewing! Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/10/24 Full Review Benjamin H A gripping, brilliantly acted and multifaceted drama that features breathtaking direction, writing and cinematography, season 1 of Mr. Robot could have been organized a bit better in certain areas, however it evolves and effortlessly opens up thanks to a thought-provoking and immersive story that features complex and fascinating characters. Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 05/26/24 Full Review Spicy B As scripted fiction mystery/psych thriller lover, the DID plot was clear from the onset. Expected abuse background to come. The rest of the character relationships... and plotline... always kept guessing. Above and beyond binge worthy. LOVE. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/20/24 Full Review Adela P Una increíble serie que te envuelve, te muestra el "behind the scenes" del mundo de los hackers y Rami Malek lo hace extraordinario.
