Camilla Long The Times (UK) This is one of those intensely watchable, peerlessly silly sci-fi shows in which people repeatedly say things like: “But you cannot leave the silo!” Jun 20, 2023 Full Review Robert Levin Newsday Well-crafted and intriguing sci-fi, perfect for fans and casual viewers. Rated: 3.5/4 May 11, 2023 Full Review Jasper Rees Daily Telegraph (UK) Perhaps, having paid for the silo, the producers wanted their money’s worth. But even as the characters clamber into its vaults, the sense of claustrophobia grows ever so stifling. Rated: 2/5 May 9, 2023 Full Review Eddie Harrison film-authority.com …as with Lost, there’s something about the way that this particular predicament is patiently explored that gives it some philosophical and intellectual heft…one hopes that Silo, unlike Lost, has some good answers for the questions it poses… Rated: 4/5 Jan 6, 2025 Full Review Joonatan Itkonen Toisto.net Peppered with a fantastic cast of character actors, terrific directing, and the promise of a bigger future, Silo is one of my favorite new series in a long while. A rich dystopian fantasy that deserves all the praise it gets. Rated: 5/5 Jul 3, 2024 Full Review Tamma Moksha The Hindu The show’s strength lies in building characters that are human in their pursuits and motivations, and presenting them with actors who are conscientious while essaying them.

Finn M Peak dystopian Sci Fi the mystery is crafted so well and the reveals leave you self guessing yourself. Also recommend reading the books they’re great. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/12/25 Full Review Christian K This first season of "Silo" belongs to the best I've seen in a long time. The casting is perfect (especially Rebecca Ferguson as the main role), the brutalist architecture and machinery as well as the social aspects of a below-the-earth community are fascinating, there are many mysteries to be discovered, and the whole plot very consequently develops to an inevitable point of no return. I would call this season an 100% masterpiece of science fiction. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/30/25 Full Review Bgn S I haven't seen a good Sci-Fi movie in a long time. Interesting story not far from the book, well-shot, great cast. I highly recommend it. Kafka and Fallout in one ;-) Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/29/25 Full Review Anita W The worst ending in the history of all series! The horrible ending ruined the entire series don’t waste your time. I’m so frustrated that I watched this whole dang thing. The writer obviously did not know how to end it so they just picked a random ending and tried to make it relate to the other parts of the story. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/15/25 Full Review Deborah S Mysterious, complex, incredible visuals and overall entertaining. It has gripping suspense, but I feel the first episodes require push through to finish them. After that it becomes enticing. I’ve seen many comparisons to Lost, and in the sense of mystery and questioning, I agree… but thankfully, Silo has set itself apart from Lost by offering logical answers to few of its questions. Looking forward to the second season. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/17/25 Full Review Cheese M Any of you that aren't blitheringly stupid should enjoy this breath of fresh air. Finally, a show that builds suspense, and nails pacing, without everything feeling like cheap action with no real stakes. This doesn't do that, thank god. Anyone review bombing this show, while gushing over the same formulaic vapid, mediocre true crime, soap opera, rehashed comic book series, a remake of an 80s action movie or teen drama bullshit should just... I don't know, review those things instead? I'm sick of you vacuous guzzlers of mediocrity killing *everything* that's worth a damn. If you don't like it, it's not for you, shut up and go watch a marvel movie or something, you absolute dolts. There's a thousand things that you can watch are literally catered to your smooth brains.
