	Author	Review
United States	Matt Zoller Seitz Vulture	"It just sketches its premise, plot, characters, and themes in deft strokes (...) They could put the show’s logo in the dictionary as an alternate definition of 'professional'."	POS
United States	Tim Goodman The Hollywood Reporter	"The pilot for 'Last Resort' feels more like a big-screen movie than the start of an ongoing series (...) [It] manages to move at a feverish pace, with pulse-pounding twists and turns."	POS
United States	James Poniewozik The New York Times	"The pilot never lets you forget that you are in the hands of skillful actors and producers who know how to make an hour of television."	POS
United States	Kari Croop Common Sense Media	"Even those who don't fancy themselves fans of the submarine genre could get hooked by 'Last Resort's well-penned pilot (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Eric Goldman IGN	"What we got was damn strong overall (...) Suffice to say, I'll be checking out whatever Gajdusek and Ryan do next."	POS
