What She Said
Anne Brodie
A remarkable and frequently mind-bending eight-part anthology.
Common Sense Media
Monique Jones
A thought-provoking anthology that highlights empathy, compassion.
Hollywood Reporter
Angie Han
In its attempts to universalize these intensely personal experiences, Roar loses much of the heart that makes them worth caring about to begin with.
Collider
Samantha Coley
Ultimately, the series is an interesting look at several uniquely feminine perspectives and despite a few weak spots, it's worth watching for the sake of better understanding what it's like to be a woman.
Women's Voices for Change
Alexandra MacAaron
The biggest, most important message that these quirky tales are putting forth is that, whether we like it or not, being a woman means accepting society's insistent, but often inconsistent, directives about who and what you are and do.
NPR
Linda Holmes
What unifies the chapters, other than that they are about women in a variety of circumstances, is that they are satisfyingly, pleasantly weird.
Rolling Stone
Jenna Scherer
Roar has built a daring experiment, bringing in a diverse group of female writing, directing, and acting heavyweights -- which makes the series almost fascinating in its failure to deliver.
The Mary Sue
Chelsea Steiner
While Roar has its hits and misses, its anchored by strong performances and stylish production value. It's also refreshing to see an anthology series focus on women's issues, driven by (mostly) women writers and directors.
Slashfilm
Danielle Ryan
Roar is one part Black Mirror, one part The Twilight Zone, all filtered through the lens of feminism.
Fat Guys at the Movies
Kevin Carr
Some of these are so on the nose, they lose their creative energy because they're so obvious.
RogerEbert.com
Clint Worthington
Whether you crave the catharsis of an abusive boyfriend being carted off by Animal Control, or the rush of solving your own murder ... "Roar" has enough darkly comic delights to make you shout.
The Muse/Jezebel
Gabrielle Bruney
All the starry turns and strong performances can't make this anthology series cohere into a show that has something to say about contemporary womanhood.
The Spool
Gena Radcliffe
Though it suffers from the typical unevenness of an anthology series, even its weaker entries are still solid, and their blessedly short half-hour runtime makes it all go down smooth.
New York Post
Lauren Sarner
The end result is a mixed bag of vignettes that don't always feel cogent, but are never boring.
Variety
Caroline Framke
The MVPs of Roar just might be the casting directors, who found the actors who could not just handle this material, but find subtlety where there sometimes is none.
Paste Magazine
Radhika Menon
While stylish and provocative, the series ultimately falls a little flat in its message. If a woman's plight is to suffer, then Roar doesn't end up giving its women a way out.
indieWire
Ben Travers
Tones and takeaways may change, but the show's consistent howl is motivating. Roar recognizes how much time it has to deliver its messages, making the most of its 30 minutes, each and every time.
Decider
Joel Keller
By keeping the stories simple, Roar is able to send its messages without hammering it over viewers' heads. Could some of the episodes stick their landings better? Sure. But the storytelling in the series mostly solid.
IGN Movies
Samantha Nelson
There's a lot of creativity and some powerful performances in Roar's tales about the challenges women experience, but the 30-minute episodes almost all feel overly long and predictable.
TV Fanatic
Carissa Pavlica
The chapters take on different storytelling genres, some more successfully than others. But even the less successful endeavors feature actors who eagerly tear away at the material, which lends itself to a visceral experience.
