Media Author Review
United States
IndieWire
"While still a ridiculous and short-sighted sci-fi action series, the new lead [Anthony Mackie] helps 'Altered Carbon' transition from dully serious to stupid fun." 
United States
Forbes
"The story is intriguing and original and not a rehash of what came before it in Season 1 (...) It’s an excellent season of sci-fi television." 
United States
Collider
"Anthony Mackie can’t save this lackluster return (...) It’s frustrating to see how often the show takes a too-shallow approach (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)" 
United Kingdom
Radio Times
"If you enjoyed navigating Kovacs’ complex sci-fi story through season one, you’ll find the new series is a slick follow-up that delivers just as much big-budget action and tension (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)" 
United Kingdom
The Independent
"If you like its trashy cyberpunk aesthetic, 'Altered Carbon' provides plenty of entertainment (...) It still falls short of its potential (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)" 
United Kingdom
Digital Spy
"The visual effects are staggering to behold (...) There's definitely some growth here compared to what came before (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)" 
United States
TV Guide
"It's disappointing that the issues addressed by the mixed reviews of Season 1 weren't fixed (...) [It] will keep fans of hard science-fiction happy, but it doesn't have the chops to be a crossover hit (…) Rating: ★★½ (out of 5)" 
United States
IGN
"Anthony Mackie makes for a compelling Takeshi Kovacs (...) [It] improves on Season 1 with a focused story that expands its universe in fascinating ways."
