	Author	Review
United States	John Anderson The Wall Street Journal	"The nastiness of 'Babylon' is refreshing, even while the writing fails to support either the level of acting or the atmosphere, which aspires to something far more clever than what the writers (...) have delivered."	NEU
United States	Brian Lowry Variety	"A scabrous, profane and darkly funny satire."	POS
United States	Mike Hale The New York Times	"The jokes are pretty good (...) And there are nice performances."	POS
United States	David Hinckley New York Daily News	"At times 'Babylon' feels like it’s paying more attention to comic setups than the drama. At other times it isn’t. It’s not only confusing to viewers, it’s confusing to the cast, whose lines sometimes seem almost cartoonish. (...) Rating: ★★ (out of five)"	NEG
United States	Mary McNamara Los Angeles Times	"What it lacks in depth, 'Babylon' makes up for in range and sudden brilliant commentary."	POS
