What Are the Critics Saying About Kaleidoscope?
Kaleidoscope has an official critics rating of 48% and an average audience score of 50% on Rotten Tomatoes. The non-linear approach of storytelling has appealed only to some viewers.
John Anderson from Wall Street Journal writes, “Eric Garcia no doubt had his hands full writing episodes that could all serve as intros without giving away the game entirely and also be engaging enough to get a viewer to do a modicum of mental labor in keeping the story straight. That he has done.”
The Hollywood Reporter’s Angie Han says, “In practice, Kaleidoscope feels like a slick but forgettable two-hour movie puffed up into a jumbled six-hour saga. The main advantage of its unorthodox structure is that it helps obscure how generic some of its component pieces really are.”
