	Author	Review
United States	Daniel D'Addario Variety	"'Clarice' is made with curiosity, confidence, and craft, and it comes as a happy surprise to say that it cares more about its protagonist’s mind than anyone else’s insides."	POS
United States	Darren Franich Entertainment Weekly	"There's a big problem here. Everything about 'Clarice' has been done, successfully and terribly and constantly, by a whole generation of CBS procedurals"	NEG
United States	Kelly Connolly TV Guide	"It's a well-executed procedural that works because it has the good sense to stay out of Clarice Starling's way and let her step into the light (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Jeff Sneider Collider	"As it stands after three episodes, I can't help but be disappointed, though series star Rebecca Breeds does an impressive job"	NEU
Canada	Alex Maidy JoBlo	"[It] is much better than I was expecting it to be. Part of that is because it is a respectful follow-up to the original film and doesn't try to mine Hannibal Lecter as the centerpiece of the story."	POS
United States	Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"What keeps 'Clarice' only slightly disappointing instead of infuriating is that Kurtzman, Lumet and Breed really do have a solid grasp on Clarice Starling as a character"	NEU
Canada	Josh Bell CBR	"'Clarice' is both a bad sequel to 'The Silence of the Lambs' and a bad standalone crime drama"	NEG
United States	Meagan Navarro Bloody Disgusting	"As of now, it’s an average crime drama with brushes of fascinating psychological thrills, still finding its rhythm. It doesn’t come close to the highs of 'Silence' or the 'Hannibal' tv series, but it’s nowhere near the worst of the Thomas Harris adaptations (…) Rating: ★★½ (out of 5)"	NEU
United States	Ben Travers IndieWire	"Overly referential to 'The Silence of the Lambs' and painfully deferential to police procedurals, 'Clarice' turns the title character into a callow, common cop."	NEG
