Best two reviews:
1) The Playlist- “The Mosquito Coast” is stronger in its unpredictable plotting than its dialogue, and its momentum is remarkable. ... It feels like fans of the work of Vince Gilligan, and “Ozark” will take to this the most, although “The Mosquito Coast” is arguably stronger in its first season than that Netflix drama was in its freshman outing.

2) Colorado Springs Gazette- Theroux is perfect for this role and you’re going to like Allie Fox despite his numerous flaws. Part MacGyver, part David Attenborough and part charismatic public speaker Allie is enjoyable to watch, even as he puts his family through an endless series of challenging scenarios.

Worst two reviews:
19) Vanity Fair- Mosquito Coast goes big on gorgeous atmospherics; you can practically feel the heat of the desert and smell the fruit on display in the street market. Theroux is particularly good at making the most of the wide berth the script gives the actors. ... But even his absorbing performance can’t make Mosquito Coast make sense. ... Mosquito Coast’s biggest problem may be that the show doesn’t really have enough story for seven episodes. (Rating: 40) Read Full Review >
20) Movie Nation- I found the series to be somewhat unmoored, lacking the subtexts of the original source material. Here it’s all about the violence, “MacGyver” ish escapes. It’s also jumpy and disjointed. (Rating: 38) Read Full Review >
