Season 1 Review:
De Niro looks bored and Bassett has been asked to do little more than appear serious and concerned in a few scenes. It’s surprising to see the talents of two of Hollywood’s most skillful actors squandered, but that’s true of the cast as a whole, who aren’t asked to play characters so much as chess pieces. And the writing is clunky.

Season 1 Review:
It’s a show that never reconciles its ridiculous character choices with its political commentary, a soap opera that wants to be “important” too. This is not to say that a show can’t be a conversation starter and a thriller at the same time, only that “Zero Day” is neither.

Season 1 Review:
Mullen becomes one of the most trusted people in this country based on a cult of personality, a carefully curated image that he expects the American public to accept because he tells them so. With that uncritical treatment of a man whose most defining characteristic is his aura, Zero Day falls exactly into the trap that it’s ostensibly warning its viewers against.

Season 1 Review:
Wastes an undeniably spectacular cast on a fundamentally silly and unrealistic story that badly wants to be taken as serious and realistic. The truth is that the cast is too good for Zero Day not to be watchable, but its self-congratulatory conviction that it’s far smarter than it actually is makes it hard to embrace on more than a speculative “What are all these people doing here?” level.
