What to Know

Critics Consensus

If Echo 3 doesn't meet creator Mark Boal's evident ambitions for multilayered drama, it succeeds as a lean, mean action adventure.

Echo 3: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Stuart Jeffries Guardian Another culturally colonialist production in which we’re supposed to empathise with western heroes’ psychodramas as they face off against underscripted others – think American Vietnam movies, Ridley Scott’s Black Hawk Down, Homeland. Rated: 3/5 Dec 6, 2022 Full Review Echo 3: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Brian Tallerico The Playlist The kind of show that thrills the most when it’s defying expectations. Rated: B Dec 5, 2022 Full Review Echo 3: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Craig Mathieson The Age (Australia) Colombia’s political strata are examined with some welcome detail, but little involving the three leads resonates. Echo 3 is beyond rescue. Rated: 1.5/5 Nov 30, 2022 Full Review Echo 3: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Common Sense Media Editors Common Sense Media Like most contemporary shows, it prolongs the action in order to stretch it out over a full season, but in this case the slow pace allows genuine tension to build. Rated: 4/5 Jan 10, 2023 Full Review Echo 3: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Dustin Rowles Pajiba As a series, Echo 3 doesn’t stretch three acts into 10 episodes so much as it repeats the three-act structure three times. It takes two steps forward and two steps back. Dec 23, 2022 Full Review Echo 3: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Jonny Mahon-Heap Stuff.co.nz It’s the sort of thriller we rarely see on the silver screen these days, but Apple has, thankfully, provided Boal with the right canvas (and budget) for a new kind of military thriller.

Dan R 5 stars for production value and action sequences.Subtract 4 stars for everything else.Literally everyone in this show was pathetic. Says a lot about the writer.I need to watch Extraction to cleanse my palette Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 05/09/24 Full Review Doug R Boring, slow, pointless. This is painful to watch. You keep thinking that something will happen in the next episode but it doesn’t. Watch paint dry, there’s more action. F minus Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 04/02/24 Full Review Jack R Baffling! Comes through the door as a pretty boring action thriller and develops into something never seen before. Very much liked it. Great references to other series and films of this type. Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/26/24 Full Review PJ B First thing if you intend to watch this series, you need to watch to the end to complete the narrative arch, it will leave you thinking emotionally, without a spoiler you will need to get there. I stumbled on this looking for something else to watch on AppleTV. Action spy/military shows are easy to watch (exercise distraction) usually predicable. This is beyond that. There is a lot of the usual heroics/military violence but the show develops well beyond that in the characters and underlying plot. It is slow if you are only looking for action, but always very tense. My only disappointment was some plot lines sorta never develop much (the journalist especially) and are left unresolved, but perhaps are there to round out other parts of the story. For me I need to rewatch some episodes as things will be better appreciated. If you only want the usual military shoot out, not for you. If you want more take this but you need to commit to watch to the end. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/08/24 Full Review Phill M Complete waste of my time. I think this was actually created to be a movie, but someone at Apple decided to make it a 10 episode show. I feel sorry for the producer, not having enough content to make 10 episodes. Completely dragged out, immediately from the wedding scene. This could have been a dope 2 hour movie. I skipped through most of the "stock video" and dragged out dialogue. Lots of scenes with the characters just looking at each other for minutes at a time. A couple episodes that could have been removed completely and it wouldn't take anything away from the storyline. Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/06/24 Full Review Paul P This series is practically devoid of any interest. Some scenes are downright poorly executed, with stupid pitch and dialogues. The handling of extras is laughable, and some supporting roles are poorly acted. The direction is often atrocious, especially in the last episode, which reaches peaks of worthlessness and boredom, with a very bad post-synchro in sus and stupid close-ups ... And Michiel Huisman is pitiful in the dialogues. But in his defense, these dialogues are so bad and empty... Rated 2.5/5 Stars • Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/28/24 Full Review Read all reviews
