"The Handmaid’s Tale is spinning its wheels in Season 5."

—

IndieWire

"As always, it’s Strahovski and Moss’ sterling work that helps sell the drama..."

—

Stuff

"Strahovski does some fine work this season as a woman who is constantly trying to manoeuvre herself into a favourable position for her own comfort and security."

—

NPR

"Fans of the show will likely feel conflicted at times and satisfied at others, although it's easy to wonder if this series has already seen its finest days."

—

Collider

"Deep into its run, The Handmaid’s Tale has found itself — or a version of itself, at once leaner and stranger — again."

—

Variety

"While this season continues the grinding march toward the end of June's story, it reinforces a sense that... the show's best days are behind it."

—

CNN

"Unless you’re already a dedicated Handmaid’s Tale fan, you can skip the drudgery of this season..."

—

Decider

"The series continues to be myopic with its intention of telling small stories that build slowly which means there’s a constant issue with pace in the season overall."
