The Crown Season 5 has an official critics rating of 71% and an average audience score of 85% on Rotten Tomatoes. Some viewers think this season is not as compelling as the previous ones.
Empire Magazine’s Boyd Hilton writes, “Despite a slow start and some occasional missteps, Season 5 of The Crown proves to be as addictive and captivating as ever.”
Shirley Li from The Atlantic says, “Morgan’s approach to the personal lives of the royals is too sympathetic to ever be damning. The new season of The Crown never risks challenging anyone’s reputation. Instead, it merely risks its own as a compelling show.”
