	Media	Author	Review
		Mike Hale The New York Times	"The most interesting thing, though, in both dramatic and thematic terms, is Wallace’s willingness to bend and break the rules to advance his agenda"
		Hank Stuever The Washington Post	"Pinnock’s performance gives a palpable, urgent quality to Aaron’s intensity (...) 'For Life' is hampered by the formula of prime-time legal dramas"
		Tim Surette TV Guide	"It all works because we're rooting like hell for Wallace (...) Pinnock is rock solid in the role, combining ferociousness with compassion (…) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 5)"
		Daniel D'Addario Variety	"There’s a genuinely intriguing story at the heart of 'For Life' (...) But it’s buried under a fair amount of frenetic drama that tends to obscure its most interesting ideas."
		Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"The evidence is all over the place, but there's a case for an OK drama here (...) After two episodes, it's mostly there in hints and subplots"
