	Author	Review
United States	Neil Genzlinger The New York Times	"'The Messengers' certainly offers enough in its premiere to be worth a return visit next week, just to see where it’s going."	POS
United States	Robert Bianco USA Today	"Obviously, the show could improve, but nothing in the first hour--from the flaccid script to the indifferent casting--is likely to leave you thinking it will."	NEG
United States	Brian Lowry Variety	"'The Messengers' is one of those teasing constructs that elicits more skepticism than enthusiasm."	NEU
United States	David Wiegand SFGATE	"As trite, overblown and obvious as the fundamental plot is, credible, nuanced backstories for the five angels would have elevated the entire show to a more watchable level."	NEG
United States	Tom Long Detroit News	"'The Messengers' seems far-fetched, even by [The CW's] standards."	NEU
