	Author	Review
United States	Jen Chaney Vulture	"Rosemarie DeWitt is thoroughly convincing as Marie (...) This is easily the most emotionally affecting episode of season four"	POS
United States	Sonia Saraiya Variety	"It is a well-done story, but with a theme so blatant it could bludgeon you"	NEU
United States	Darren Franich Entertainment Weekly	"I found the ideas at the center of 'Arkangel' to be thoughtful (...) Dewitt’s great, and director Jodie Foster gets fine performances from a very young cast"	POS

United Kingdom	Steve O'Brien Digital Spy	"While its script is resolutely old-school 'Black Mirror', 'Arkangel' definitely takes the series into fresh territory, geographically speaking"	POS
United States	Michael Haigis Slant	"It unsettles as a rebuke of well-intentioned parental impulses that are common enough to be unremarkable."	NEG
