The weirder "The Anarchists" gets, the more compelling it becomes. Read full review

The Daily Beast Nick Schager

It’s a fascinating portrait of against-the-grain dissenters and their pipe dreams of true freedom, commencing with promise and concluding with the age-old lesson that you should be careful what you wish for. Read full review

If The Anarchists were just about the movement itself, it would be boring and enraging. But because it’s about how the movement got infiltrated by people who made things increasingly chaotic and violent, we’re ready to see where the rest of the series goes. Read full review

The characters are captivating—so much so that their personalities often overpower Schramke’s own perspective. Read full review

It’s not bad, but sometimes a six-part series ends up being ideal for viewers who have the approximate six hours to see past a project’s padding to a leaner, more purposeful version of its own story. Read full review

Schramke's ability to wrangle all of these narratives into a coherent form proves to be sporadic and limited at best. ... But whatever draw it might muster comes down to something far more basic, explained in the words of Juan Galt (yup, no relation): the anarchy dream crashes against the reality of human conflict, and drama and s**t hitting the fan.
