Season 1 Review: If only the delicacy of these two character actors [Alfred Molina and Michael Keaton], were matched by that of The Company's central figures and the production's overall arc. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Some of it is very enjoyable, some of it is silly but still enjoyable, some of it is too silly to be enjoyable, some of it is not silly enough to be enjoyable, and some of it is neither here nor there. Read full review

San Francisco ChronicleTim Goodman
Season 1 Review: The spy story, wartime bullets and intrigue carry The Company, though the writing and story are unnecessarily obvious. Read full review

USA TodayRobert Bianco
Season 1 Review: Unfortunately, the project is too short to do its subject matter justice and too long and clumsy to keep us involved--a problem compounded by Chris O'Donnell's boyishly bland performance as The Company's central agent. Read full review

Season 1 Review: There's no nice way to state the obvious--that despite the creative stamp of producers Ridley Scott, Tony Scott and John Calley, stars Chris O'Donnell, Alfred Molina and Michael Keaton simply don't work in their roles, obscuring the solid supporting work, especially by Tom Hollander.

Season 1 Review: We go on watching because of Keaton.... Otherwise, The Company is both surprisingly slow and remarkably tendentious. Read full review

Season 1 Review: This sometimes thought-provoking drama may be too familiar and slack for all but the most spy-struck. Read full review

Wall Street JournalNancy DeWolf Smith
Season 1 Review: If you can view The Company's as a basic thriller, and ignore its gaffes, you'll find entertainment here. Read full review
