The Impossible Box Ratings & Reviews
THN
Andrew Gaudion
Once again, this is an episode of Picard that thrives more on a sense of frenetic pacing, combining elements of Picard's past to drive both his mission and much of the drama at the focus.
Film Inquiry
Hayden Cornmell
While it should be noted that "The Impossible Box" does make strides towards the franchise's core ideas and is significantly more ambitious than "Stardust City Rag", it still struggles to know what to do with itself.
Tell-Tale TV
Samantha Coley
"The Impossible Box," brings us to the convergence of the two overarching season arcs, along with sweeping nostalgia, thrilling high stakes action, and moving character moments.
Flickering Myth
Martin Carr
This is an episode of revaluation, soul searching and self-discovery as untruths begin bearing fruit, whilst long buried experiences dramatically enrich the narrative.
The Spool
Andrew Bloom
Even though "The Impossible Box" still struggles to deliver on a scene-to-scene basis, it at least manages to dispense with much of the series's narrative wheel-spinning. That's right, cadets, we've got genuine plot movement this week!
indieWire
Christian Blauvelt
"The Impossible Box" was an exceptionally well written and directed installment. It wasn't perfect: but the thrill here was not so much in what happened, but how it happened.
Entertainment Weekly
Nick Schager
Though the Artifact has served its narrative purpose well, it'll be nice to see Soji - and the show - explore a somewhat different environment.
New York Times
Sopan Deb
I thought this was the best episode of the season, with some caveats. "Picard" has a tendency to rely on some clumsy exposition to help viewers remember details or to fill in back stories for plot lines to come.
SFX Magazine
Richard Edwards
It's an episode of revelations, self-discovery, and pivotal characters being put through hell. As a result, it's undoubtedly the best outing Star Trek: Picard episode so far.
TV Fanatic
Diana Keng
It is incredibly exciting and action-packed -- with daring escapes, frantic chases, and deep-rooted fears coming to the surface.
The Daily Dot
Gavia Baker-Whitelaw
It's another fantastic episode for Patrick Stewart, digging into Picard's trauma and newfound emotional volatility.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Keith Phipps
Picard has started chewing through story elements that at first seemed as if they were going to take a whole season to play out.
io9.com
James Whitbrook
"The Impossible Box," on a character level, feels like an appropriate moment of respite for our characters after the emotional drains "Stardust City Rag" put on them.
IGN Movies
Scott Collura
Star Trek: Picard took a definitive turn for the better in terms of the Soji/Narek storyline this week, finally breaking free from the malaise of that plot thread.
Den of Geek
Kayti Burt
This episode and the last have really dived into the exploration of former Borg as survivors, giving us moving, complex moments of shared traumatic experience between Picard and Seven last week and Picard and Hugh this week.
CBR
Mike Bloom
"The Impossible Box" takes no time to stop and smell the orchids, sending the show hurtling forward at warp speed and finally showing the meeting Trekkies have waited for six weeks to see.
AV Club
Zack Handlen
I want this series to find a perspective, and soon. Right now, it's just skimming over a tasteful surface, artfully crafted but not quite able to cover for the emptiness below.
