Critics' reviews

"It’s not that the series is lazy; each installment seems carefully planned and polished (...) It’s that in trying to speak for so many, 'Roar' ends up saying very little at all."

Angie Han: The Hollywood Reporter
"Rather than lean on heavy drama or be happy experimenting for experiment’s sake, 'Roar' is clear-eyed in its messaging and enthusiastic in its approach."

Ben Travers: IndieWire
"[It] is bold, funny, and sometimes uncomfortable, just like being a woman (...) It's worth watching for the sake of better understanding what it's like to be a woman"

Samantha Coley: Collider
"The majority of the show’s quasi-feminist standalone parables are perfectly okay, but they tend to come out a little undercooked."

Valerie Ettenhofer: The Playlist
"For a series meant to tackle thorny social issues and gender dynamics, 'Roar' comes across as distressingly slight (…) Rating: ★½ (out of 4)"

Steven Scaife: Slant
"Instead of feeling like a full-blown roar, it's more of a trained growl, and that's a real shame"

Danielle Ryan: SlashFilm
"Despite a stacked cast and crew, [this] anthology series of modern feminist fairy tales feels like homework"

Jenna Scherer: Rolling Stone
