Critics Consensus

Bearing writer James Gunn's trademark penchant for kooky humor and lovable characters, Creature Commandos marks an auspicious debut for the DCU.

For anyone who has some stamina left for metahuman fare, it’ll likely do something truly remarkable: leave them eager for whatever comes next.

Now he’s at it again with Creature Commandos, and while the third time isn’t exactly the charm, its easy-going, character-first approach to another story about incarcerated criminals thrust together to save the world largely works to its advantage.

Rated: C+

... A fun, endearing start to a new cinematic universe that offers gore, thrills, laughs, and emotions galore.

While its scale and scope make for a modest intro to the new DCU, Creature Commandos still delivers a devilishly entertaining first impression.

Though highly mature and violent, DC Studios’ initial foray packs fun action spectacle and dire stakes while conveying that behind every monster is a tragedy.

Rated: 4/5

James Gunn confirms with a splash of adult animation that the DC Universe is in very good hands, offering a new cocktail of violence packed action, over-the-top comedy, and a huge heart.

It's entertaining but it's not a good show. It's one of those turn my brain off and watch type shows cuz if you ever take a minute to think about what's happening in the scene you realize just how stupid it is. The the so-called backwards country has power suits that fire lasers and they couldn't take out a bunch of random Simps with guns and they expect you to believe that the girl becomes a dictator. It pushes American exceptionalism as a core theme from the very first episode. The comedy is hit or miss. As far as DC animation go it's probably the second most disappointing one I've ever watched. Only being topped by CW's Vixen.

Once again, James Gunn leans into his signature ensemble storytelling and distinctive audiovisual style, crafting another super-team spectacle that stands shoulder to shoulder with The Suicide Squad.

Fun series with great animation, humour, action, and a multitude of emotional moments. The villain is abit weak but besides that this is very entertaining.
