Hearts Still Beating Ratings & Reviews
ScreenCrush
Kevin Fitzpatrick
The Walking Dead Season 7 was in desperate need of a goal to strive toward, and seems fundamentally to misunderstand the problem with taking eight episodes for such a foregone conclusion.
CBR
Dan Caffrey
Ultimately though, the compartmentalized structure of this season paid off, as proven tonight by the final moments of "Hearts Still Beating."
Empire Magazine
James White
Hearts Still Beating closes out the first half of the seventh season on - gasp! - an actually hopeful note, which signals the show might actually be headed to the Return Of The Jedi stage of this particular arc.
CraveOnline
Blair Marnell
There were some positives in this episode. Daryl's escape from the Sanctuary was well staged, while Rick and Aaron's adventures with the river walkers was one of the more unique zombie moments that the show has had this season.
TV Equals
Pat Jackson
Don't get me wrong, I love Jeffrey Dean Morgan, but Negan. not so much.
Chicago Tribune
Steve Johnson
I am so excited about this change in the momentum of the series, which had been doing kind of a slow burn for most of the season.
Lyles' Movie Files
Jeffrey Lyles
Hearts Still Beating finally provided some significant reason to be optimistic about the rest of Season 7.
SciFiNow
Steve Wright
Sure, it's cheesy as hell, but at least it's a direction.
USA Today
Kelly Lawler
"Hearts Still Beating" simultaneously gave us brief glimpses of what made the show work before this season and reminded us of the season's greatest flaws.
New York Times
Jeremy Egner
The Walking Dead went into its winter break on Sunday with an exciting episode that felt even more so after the mostly forgettable ones that led up to it.
Wall Street Journal
Paul Vigna
[It] provided a couple of shocking moments along the way, that genuinely felt shocking and not manufactured, which is a good sign that the writers in the writers room are letting the story flow naturally.
Observer
Noam Cohen
It's reunions all around, including man and his trusty pistol, and they stride off to make a real plan. Finally.
Rolling Stone
Noel Murray
Unlike past half-season or season finales that have ended at moments of irresolution or mortal danger, "Hearts Still Beating" takes its cue from its actual title, and ends on a rousing note of "enough's enough."
Daily Telegraph (UK)
Ed Power
There was plenty of guts but not much glory as The Walking Dead signed-off with a mid-season finale likely to trigger further complaints regarding the show's over-the-top violence.
Guardian
Stuart Jeffries
Good grief. Don't the makers of the Walking Dead realize that we don't want characters exchanging significant looks? We want significant carnage.
Entertainment Weekly
Nick Romano
People died, others escaped, another was imprisoned, and more still plotted for something we've been anticipating since the second episode finally happened. In other words, just your typical midseason finale during the time of walkers.
AV Club
Zack Handlen
"Hearts Still Beating" did a decent job getting interest up for what's to come, but it was also stuck paying off plotlines that really had no point in lasting as long as they did.
indieWire
Jeff Stone
So while it's nice that things are moving along, the show took its sweet time getting there.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Richard Rys
What we ended up getting was mostly satisfying: The plots not only moved forward, but closer together; two Alexandrians checked out permanently; Daryl ditched his cell and those sweats; and Rick finally got his swagger back (along with his gun).
Independent (UK)
Jacob Stolworthy
For all of its tortuous moments, coming out of this episode feeling optimistic - slightly hampered by a post-credits sequence presenting what's sure to be a future threat - is the most shocking thing of all.
