The GuardianJack SealeOct 25, 2023
Season 1 Review: Epochal events are hard to capture in images, so it’s trying to make us feel the hugeness of what’s happening with words. But if the series was less concerned with constantly reinforcing how incredible everything is, it could have found room to be more informative. Read full review

The TelegraphMichael HoganOct 25, 2023
Season 1 Review: The main draw is dinosaurs but they barely appear until mid-series. Too much screentime is spent on slo-mo recreations of meteorological events which, let’s face it, aren’t as thrilling as T-rexes fighting triceratops. When we do get some action, squeamish cameras cut away before any bloodshed. Read full review
