The series struggles to be compelling beyond the prospect of Momoa making an appearance on screen, and even then, the material rarely rises to meet the effort he puts forth.

After a decent mixture of action, gore, and drama? Look no further.
January 24, 2017
Bloody, predictable historical drama about fur trade wars.

Frontier is moderately entertaining, but consistently unchallenging.

Jason Momoa does historical epic for Netflix' sounds a lot more exciting in theory than Frontier is in execution.

None of the characters, however, prove especially interesting, and in an age of abundance, Frontier feels like a decidedly second-tier offering.
