It's no small feat, then, that the series turns out to be so entertaining but also a worthy adaptation of Heller's novel.

Catch-22 isn't quite wild enough to join TV's elite satires or sharp enough to leave a mark as lasting as its source material. But it has its moments, and those moments add up to an entrancing experience.

This adaptation twists the knife in a way that would make Heller proud.

For a series that gradually loses its sharpness in its commentary on power and masculinity in wartime, Abbott's performance constantly reminds you of what's so great about Heller's book.
May 16, 2019
Retains Heller's caustic wit and righteous anger.

I like what they've done with it here overall. It may not be crammed full to bursting with amazing comic actors, the way Nichols' half-right movie was. It's softer, I guess. But it's not soft-headed.
May 17, 2019
Where it strikes off on its own, whether in dialogue or wholly new scenes, it tends to get obvious and flat.
May 17, 2019
It does a brilliant job of capturing the absurdity, comedy and horror of war. What is it good for? Absolutely nothing.
May 15, 2019
As a period piece with universal refrains, it has a lot going for it.
May 16, 2019
It's all legitimately terrifying, and not the slightest bit funny. That's what makes it hilarious. That's what still makes Catch-22 necessary.
