	Author	Review
United States	Robert Bianco USA Today	"Like 'Empire', 'Star' is a mess of the first order. It’s just a far less entertaining one."	NEG
United States	Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"Lee Daniels' new Fox musical drama features a great Queen Latifah performance, but may not be as broadly appealing as 'Empire.'"	NEU
United States	Jeff Jensen Entertainment Weekly	"Unfortunately, 'Star' subverts everything with hollow heaviness and familiar cynicism."	NEG
United States	Bethonie Butler The Washington Post	"Unfortunately, 'Star' suffers from stilted dialogue and a narrative so sloppy it overshadows the show’s more redeeming qualities. Not even Golden Globe winner Queen Latifah can save this mess."	NEG
United States	Mike Hale The New York Times	"What 'Star' doesn’t have is a Cookie--a Taraji P. Henson to come in and light a fire that would draw your attention away from the general tackiness of the show. It needs a star."	NEG
