Critic Reviews

Entertainment Weekly - Christian Holub

Come for Robin saying "F---Batman," stay to see how many bodies the teens drop trying to stop the occult apocalypse prefigured by Raven. [12 Oct 2018, p.49]

The New York Times - Mike Hale

Oct 11, 2018

The superhero Sturm und Drang and personal melodrama that Titans offers is attractively packaged and reasonably entertaining in the early episodes. ... If you’re partial to the more serious end of the comic-book spectrum, you may already be watching “Black Lightning” on CW, “Jessica Jones” and a few others on Netflix, “Legion” on FX, “The Runaways” on Hulu and “Gotham” on Fox. “Titans” may deserve to join the list, but it’s a big ask.

CNN - Brian Lowry

Titans is a superhero hybrid -- a live-action series that essentially weds the CW's DC Comics-inspired fare with the gritty, premium-cable approach of Marvel's Netflix dramas. That's not a bad formula, and it yields an entertaining, heavily serialized show. Read full review

Pittsburgh Post-Gazette - Rob Owen

Oct 10, 2018

Another superhero show is overkill, but for what it is, Titans strong-arms its way into acceptance and occasionally more (the series’ depiction of a Beaver Cleaver-style family of killers, introduced in episode two, is especially clever). Read full review

The Hollywood Reporter - Dan Fienberg

Oct 11, 2018

Titans is a try-too-hard stab at occupying a middle ground between grumpy, but still family friendly, DC offerings like The CW's Arrow and the definitely-not-for-kids Marvel shows on Netflix. ... What it doesn't mean, at least through the three episodes sent to critics, is any sort of extra creative depth or narrative exploration. Read full review

Collider - Vinnie Mancuso

Titans is poorly made, acted, and written enough to be considered a “bad” show, but not nearly crazy, ambitious, or just plain weird enough to be worth it for the discussion alone. It is a slog. It is, in fact, the sloggiest slog I’ve ever slogged. Read full review

Rolling Stone - Alan Sepinwall

Oct 11, 2018

Thwaites doesn’t have anything near the gravitas required to pull off this self-righteously vicious approach. If you’re going to say “Fuck Batman,” that’s your right. But you’d better back it up with more than what Titans has to offer, or you just seem like a frustrated poseur who wants to seem much tougher and cooler than you can ever hope to be.

I love how daring this show is! It perfectly shows that DC can still handle the gritty and dull nature of their universe. I also like how different this is to the cartoon shows, it's much more serious in tone with a bit of humor mixed in.

Its gritty and dull nature set it apart from all the other live-action DC TV Shows. What I love most about this show, is its constant theme of family and companionship, definitely worth the watch if you love the Titans.… Expand

Titans is a great series in which each episode overcome our expectations, the violence is fairly balanced, and the humor is not exaggerated. Titans know what kind of series she is and is not ashamed of it. I can not believe that I criticized this much series before its release.

DC done it again ! The characters, the story, the action, everything on this show is very well done, I think that all the teen titans comics fans will enjoy this new attempt on bringing this beloved characters into life. But even with all this good things to be said about the first season,DC done it again ! The characters, the story, the action, everything on this show is very well done, I think that all the teen titans comics fans will enjoy this new attempt on bringing this beloved characters into life. But even with all this good things to be said about the first season, it still carries a lot of problems, especially on the last episode. Sometimes, the main characters appears to be forgotten and the show becomes a huge propaganda for the DC Universe streaming service.… Expand

I do not like the way the characters are, it's very artificial, it could have been worked better and have made them more natural to the story, unfortunately the DC always misses the hand, has great stories but can not turn them into great movies or series.

Awful, no one acts like they do in the comics, they basically assassinate Batman's character in order to get some cheap drama...and on top of all that it's boring. It's all the worst things of a live action superhero adaptation all rolled into one. HARD pass.
