	Author	Review
United States	Neil Genzlinger The New York Times	"Judging from the first two episodes, this is a skillfully acted, richly detailed historical show"	POS
United States	Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"In form and execution, it may be an unremarkable depiction of being remarkable, but it's also handsomely produced, reasonably intelligent and well-served by paired leading men Geoffrey Rush and Johnny Flynn."	POS
United States	Maureen Ryan Variety	"Episodes one and two jump around to a few different periods in the Nobel Prize winner’s life, but (...) 'Genius' quite doesn’t land on the most interesting time frames, or find consistently thoughtful ways to illuminate the eras it does explore."	NEU
United States	David Wiegand SFGATE	"The bifurcated structure sometimes works against the otherwise effective dramatic vision of the series. (...) That said, the performances are winning."	NEU
United States	Verne Gay Newsday	"'Genius' doesn’t just skate over the science, it ignores it."	NEG
