The Walking Dead - S5 • E1 Ratings & Reviews
TV Over Mind
Randy Dankievitch
And despite the outright predictability of the season five premiere's broad strokes, it's the details of "No Sanctuary" that make it the most promising season premiere since the pilot.
ScreenCrush
Kevin Fitzpatrick
Consider "No Sanctuary" a fine way to kick things off, with a hint of some major storylines to come.
Tom & Lorenzo
Tom Fitzgerald and Lorenzo Marquez
Hit that perfect sweet spot of gore, despair, violence and, against all odds, it stuck the landing on a moment of emotional triumph.
The Daily Beast
Melissa Leon
Carol is a butcher and now the show's most fascinating-and formidable-character.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Richard Rys
This season seems prepared to delve deeper into that question: What happens when good people do very bad things?
IGN Movies
Matt Fowler
While last season's "Indifference" and "The Grove" elevated Carol's character, "No Sanctuary" made her even more fan-accessible by using her no-nonsense approach to the zompocalypse as a way to shift her into full warrior mode.

Terri Schwartz
As the zombie apocalypse brings out worse and worse levels of human depravity, Rick has evolved into a very different character with each passing season, and thanks to Lincoln, season five's iteration might be the most cheer-worthy yet.
HitFix
Alan Sepinwall
By turning the fifth season premiere into wall-to-wall action, Scott Gimple effectively fool-proofed "No Sanctuary."

Tim Surette
You win, Walking Dead! You're back in my good graces. (Until the inevitable slowdown, that is. We have a rocky relationship, show.)
AV Club
Zack Handlen
To a certain degree, the decision to burn through this plot this fast makes sense. It kicks off the season with a bang, and there's no sense of stalling to fill time.
Tampa Bay Times
Sean Daly
It ignored most of the cast, it was merciless and unflinching in presenting the new world order -- and hardly anyone speechified much (except for the mundanely eeevil psychopath who messed with Tyreese's head).
Los Angeles Times
Patrick Kevin Day
After a seemingly interminable (or in-Terminus-able) wait, the fifth season of the epic zombie series kicked things off in brutal fashion.
Screen Rant
Kevin Yeoman
If there's one thing The Walking Dead handles well, it's season premieres. And the season 5 premiere, "No Sanctuary" is no different.
TV Fanatic
Sean McKenna
That just might have been one of the most cringe-inducing, graphically bloody and intense hours of The Walking Dead in a while.
Variety
Laura Prudom
It's hard to remember any installment since the series premiere that has delivered such a nail-biting cold open as the season five debut.
