The Handmaid's Tale - S1 • E7 Ratings & Reviews
The Young Folks
Andrea Thompson
The Handmaid's Tale episode The Other Side has everything we're supposed to want in a show about an all too plausible dystopia.
Syfy Wire
Carol Pinchefsky
Because the episode is only concerned with Luke's survival - will he or won't he live - it has no real tension. "The Other Side" was borderline dull.
Harper's Bazaar
Emma Dibdin
So much of The Other Side plays like a watered-down Children of Men, with Luke and June, and later Luke and his ragtag group of rebels, on the run in a dystopia that feels relatively generic.
AV Club
Allison Shoemaker
This is an episode that seemingly hopes to prove that The Handmaid's Tale can step away from the Commander's house for an hour and still find stories to tell. Does it succeed in that? Sure.
Birth.Movies.Death.
Kristen O'Neal
Outside the politics of Gilead and (obviously) tied to June, we can root for Luke in a way we can't for any other male character.
Refinery29
Anne Cohen
Having seen this episode, all I can say is I've never been more grateful for my dual citizenship. Good job, mom and dad.
Entertainment Weekly
Jessica Derschowitz
Let's get the big news out of the way -- like the Mexican government official promised, though it might have seemed too good to be true, Luke is alive. ALIVE! And even better, he now knows June is alive too.
New York Times
Angelica Jade Bastién
It's a ponderous hour of television made worse by acting that does nothing to liven what's on the page.
Vox
Emily VanDerWerff
"The Other Side" succeeded in convincing me that there are lots and lots of stories to be told in Margaret Atwood's world, not just Offred's.
Daily Telegraph (UK)
Ed Power
This was an uncharacteristically action-packed episode, with the emotional catharsis provided by the final scene.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Laura Hudson
This is the episode where we rewind the tape and watch it again from the very beginning, this time with the camera fixed on Luke.
Guardian
Julia Raeside
This felt like exactly the right time for a full flashback episode.
