None of the characters, however, prove especially interesting, and in an age of abundance, Frontier feels like a decidedly second-tier offering.March 27, 2017
It's like that bland guacamole your co-worker brings to the potluck, but if you sprinkle a little salt and squeeze a lime on it, it's quite enjoyable. Jason Momoa is the lime and the salt. The sea salt.January 23, 2017
Frontier privileges complication and nuance over titillation and pulp - and capitalizes on what television specifically can do in terms of telling a multi-pronged, multi-location story.January 20, 2017
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.January 18, 2017
Frontier is moderately entertaining, but consistently unchallenging.February 02, 2017
After a decent mixture of action, gore, and drama? Look no further.January 20, 2017
Yes, there are serious themes to be drawn from it if you're so inclined... but you can also feel free to take it as simply an action-packed, rather bloody tale from those frothy preindustrial days.January 19, 2017
Jason Momoa does historical epic for Netflix' sounds a lot more exciting in theory than Frontier is in execution.January 24, 2017
Bloody, predictable historical drama about fur trade wars.
