Chapter 2 Ratings & Reviews
Vanyaland
Nick Johnston
I actually kind of like that they stepped back from the more obvious stylization that was present in some of last week's scenes and grounded it a little more.
Slashfilm
Jacob Hall
While "Chapter 2" dials back the overall nuttiness of the pilot, it ramps up the mysteries.
Empire Magazine
James White
Avoiding clumsy narrative shifts, the second episode keeps the tension up... it's refreshing to see characters being up front about the situation this early into the story, whereas other shows might keep the mystery wheels turning for months.
Tom & Lorenzo
Tom Fitzgerald and Lorenzo Marquez
Sure, the storytelling is more or less coherent and linear in comparison to the first episode.
CBR
Kevin Melrose
After the often-frenetic pace of last week's premiere, with its flashbacks, dream sequences and literal fireworks, "Legion" slows down in its second episode, if only just a little.
New York Times
Sean T. Collins
To a limited degree, the show is capable of wonder and terror alike. Thanks in large part to the quiet and confident performances of Jean Smart and Jeremie Harris as Melanie Bird and Ptonomy Wallace, David Haller's sojourn.
SFX Magazine
Leon Hurley
After a wonderfully creative whirlwind of a debut, I had high hopes for Legion. Unfortunately, the second instalment has swung wildly to the other end of the spectrum with a mechanically implemented 'nothing happens' episode.
Den of Geek
Nick Harley
It's got energy and style to spare, and someone on that crew is trying like mad to win the Emmy for best sound editing, but until I can get a firmer grip on the plot, I don't know if I'm ready to say that Legion is an elite series on air.
IGN Movies
Scott Collura
After the tour de force that was last week's episode, "Chapter 2" can't help but be somewhat underwhelming in comparison. But still, it does a lot to stabilize the craziness of last week and fill in some questions -- while also launching a bunch more.
AV Club
Alex McLevy
What makes Legion's strategy in "Chapter 2" so brilliant is that this is true for all of us. You don't need telepathic powers to find yourself unsettled by your own past, or wondering how new information changes how you perceive yourself.
Daily Telegraph (UK)
Catherine Gee
This week, the odd element has begun to feel familiar, as traces of pop culture recognition have begun to seep in.
Entertainment Weekly
Kevin P. Sullivan
While the premiere of FX's Legion impressed with its technical craft by exploring perception, the second episode manages to nearly outdo it by examining memory.
The Young Folks
Michael Fairbanks
While this second episode was certainly a more focused story, we still got plenty of disturbing and jumbled peaks into David's past, which I suspect will serve as the backbone for the show's best moments.
TV Fanatic
Ron Gilmer
The tone of this one is much different than the wild, visually stunning Legion Season 1 Episode 1 premiere, but it's just as trippy in it's own way.
Uproxx
Alan Sepinwall
Overall, though, "Chapter 2" felt more necessary than inspired, moving forward the story - including David's sister Amy being taken captive by the Eye and his goons - and establishing various rules so that we'll better understand when they get broken.
Nerdist
Victoria McNally
Last week's premiere Legion episode seriously broke our brains in the best way possible, but it also left us with a lot of unanswered questions. Luckily, tonight's regular-length episode hit the ground running with a few interesting answers.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Oliver Sava
Color has played a huge part in the storytelling so far, and director Michael Uppendahl and cinematographer Dana Gonzales... are taking advantage of Legion's comic-book foundation to give the series a vivid, highly evocative color palette.
Observer
Nate Waggoner
It has a subtly detailed and referential pop-art aesthetic. Which is what makes the moments where it falters, including every time Stevens talks or looks at something, all the more embarrassing and confounding.
Paste Magazine
Katherine Siegel
[It] loses none of its quirky charm this week. But the cracks in the form are quite a bit easier to see: It's great to settle in with the characters more, yet the slower pace means it's pretty obvious when Legion is purposefully glossing over a detail.
TV.com
Kaitlin Thomas
It's still impossible to tell exactly what is real and what is a creation or fabrication. It makes for a totally bonkers but wholly enjoyable viewing experience that feels like no other comic book drama on TV.
