Critic Reviews of "Empire - Season 2"
Micaela Hood New York Daily NewsNovember 05, 2015An unusually frightful mama Lyon sees markings on his back. But baby Lyon is playing tough even when dad says "what happen to you is my worst nightmare." "Can't be worse than than being your son," Hakeem says. Mic drop.
Spencer Kornhaber The AtlanticNovember 05, 2015The youngest Lyon spent the rest of the hour struggling psychologically, undergoing a crisis of masculinity that can be added to the list of Empire's provocative storylines related to gender.
Phoebe Robinson Vanity FairNovember 05, 2015Suffice it to say that "A High Hope for a Low Heaven" was another top-notch episode.
Whitney Evans TV FanaticNovember 05, 2015This was far from my favorite Empire, but there was still a lot to like.
Lauren Chval RedEyeNovember 05, 2015"A High Hope for Low Heaven" had too many problems to redeem.
Brooke Pawling Stennett The Young FolksNovember 05, 2015After a brief hiatus, Empire has returned with even more jaw dropping moments for the audience in tonight's show.
Robert Bianco USA TodayNovember 06, 2015And yet for all of its issues - which include wasting time on guests that would be better spent nurturing some of the struggling young cast members - there are pleasures here that can't be matched elsewhere.
Craig Jenkins New York TimesNovember 05, 2015Hakeem's unearned bravado frequently makes him insufferable, so the vulnerability he radiates throughout the crisis and its aftermath is rewarding, whetever the cost, though he still manages to treat his family poorly throughout.
Melissa Maerz Entertainment WeeklyNovember 05, 2015Once again, this week's episode sets up a major dramatic arc with a lot of potential -- only to watch the writers forget about the whole story line just a few minutes later, when they're distracted by another crazy twist.
Joshua Alston AV ClubNovember 05, 2015Like many successful pop songs, Empire has a great beat and terrible lyrics. Unlike most successful pop songs, its tempo is completely out of whack, and it's glaringly obvious.
