Critics' reviews

"His name is above the title and, depending how you feel about James Spader, NBC’s 'The Blacklist' may become your favorite fall show."

Joanne Ostrow: Denver Post
"The pilot episode is stylish and swiftly paced, but that’s all it is, and despite some intriguing plot twists, there’s not a lot of motivation to keep coming back."

Hank Stuever: The Washington Post
"It’s certainly an intriguing pilot--you can’t take your eyes off of Spader and the writers have thrown in a couple of other interesting twists."

Tim Goodman: The Hollywood Reporter
"Spader has always been a particularly interesting actor, and he’s well suited to this sort of twisted figure, where so much is going on behind those eyes."

Brian Lowry: Variety
"You think you know this situation and how it will turn out, but there are surprise, yet entirely credible, twists."

David Wiegand: San Francisco Chronicle
"The many layers of feints and puzzles are compelling, but it’s hard to see how they can last more than a season or two."

Alessandra Stanley: The New York Times
