[A]nother gold-standard entry in the Marvel-Netflix library, instantly among the finest superhero series on the small screen... [with] riveting storytelling, rousing action, & sumptuous visual stylings...August 16, 2017
The big draw here is Sigourney Weaver, revelling in the role of chief naughty lady as the immaculately dressed and enigmatic Alexandra.August 16, 2017
While it's a kick to watch these heroes trade barbs and sometimes blows, the miniseries leaves you itching for them, especially Jessica and Luke, to return to their own, somehow more expansive sandboxes.August 18, 2017
The Defenders is not a perfect series but it'll give you the same kind of thrill as when you first saw the Avengers grouped together in that hero shot. Except it feels a lot more personal and that is something worth waiting four years for.August 16, 2017

I mean, I am in, with the Marvel thing. I am on board. But this time I was just bored.August 16, 2017
The Defenders does exactly what was promised, delivering the requisite action, quips and character interplay, but not quite managing to push into any new territory.August 15, 2017
It's Alexandra who's key to everything. Just powerful, dangerous and mysterious enough, she's the reason the Defenders can find common cause... a much-anticipated series and beloved franchise has already found an indispensable newcomer.
