Critics Consensus

Genuinely original science-fiction fare from television veteran Vince Gilligan, Pluribus leads Rhea Seehorn through a brave new world with plentiful returns.

Audience Says

Sometimes falling short of its high-concept promise, Pluribus is a supremely original entry from Vince Gilligan whose trademark cinematography remains employed as part of the ensemble.

3.5/4

Rhea Seehorn’s brilliant tour de force as a lone resistor to hive mentality makes this potent provocation from Vince Gilligan one you don’t want to miss.

5/5

After years in the Breaking Bad universe, Gilligan has returned to his sci-fi roots of The X-Files to bring us a show about an alien invasion. But rather than flying saucers and ray guns, the aliens in Pluribus are all about peace and togetherness.

Pop Culture Planet

The addictive series does a brilliant job tackling questions of individuality, consent, and culture as it asks if a true utopia is even possible.

Original, sharp and well acted. The show is intelligent and the pacing really allows you to live through the moments alongside the characters. Deep and thoughtful performances by everyone involved.

It's very good but idea is better than execution. Still, worth a watch and entertaining, although gets boring at some points.

Another super well written, well shot dark comedy scifi from Apple. Vince Gilligan once again set a new standard.

It's been a long time since I was so captivated by a story this great. I was a big fan of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. This is very different but equally as good. There were people who thought BCS was a bit on the slow side, and this one is getting the same comments from some people. But certainly not me! This series starts off as an almost exact copy of both Contact and Outbreak, but then quickly finds its own lane with many twists and turns ahead. Buckle up and enjoy the ride!
