on the contrary, hank stuever of "the washington post" opined, "it doesn't work. there's a bit of banter well-delivered and some artful action, yet "breakout kings" lacks a certain vim and chemistry required for a real breakout series. it's all very quick but rather flavorless. they'll catch the escapee, no doubt, but they can't catch us." robert bianco of "usa today" opined, ""breakout kings" is an uninspiring attempt by the producers and their network to be the last on the procedural match. it's stamped with many of the prison hallmarks: the same affection for intricate plot mechanics, the same flair for the dramatic—and the same disdain for logic and character motivation." "variety"'s brian lowry wrote, "the premise doesn't really make much sense. it's a tough, competitive cable world out there, and as the cons might testify, coming away with a big score requires risks. by that measure, "breakout kings" doesn't do enough to stand apart, diminishing its chances of breaking out." brian ford sullivan from "the futon critic" reviewed "breakout kings" in june 2010, calling the show a "violent version of "leverage" with colorful characters and a great performance by jimmi simpson as dr. lloyd lowery, but with some inconsistencies like the character of brooke nevin and a bunch of ideas that don't quite fit."

the show received mixed reviews. "the daily news" david hinckley opened, "this is what cable dramas can do well: a simple, stripped-down, focused drama with characters we like." jonathan storm of "philadelphia inquirer" wrote, ""breakout kings", an exciting crime drama that adds to its appeal with some character types we don't often see, will attract a much wider audience, as our flawed heroes seek to round up escapees." mary mcnamara of "los angeles times" opined that ""breakout kings" starts out with a promising blend of character and plot, action and dialog, sweet and savory". maureen ryan of huffington post opined that it "isn't a particularly creative drama but, as was the case with "prison break" in its early seasons, "breakout kings" is sustained by a workmanlike momentum. it has its share of clunky characters and predictable moments, but it also has a lot of earnest energy. it's enlivened by a terrific performance from jimmi simpson, who plays lloyd lowery, the show's all-purpose weirdo."
