The Electric State received negative reviews, including just 16% from the critics on Rotten Tomatoes’ Tomatometer. The collective critics’ consensus states, “Lumbering along like a giant automaton, The Electric State has plenty of hardware to back it up but none of the spark that’d make it come to life.” However, the viewers are enjoying this sci-fi adventure pic as they gave it a strong 70%. In Netflix’s weekly global chart for 17-23 March, the movie has garnered 22.5 million views and is #1 in 53 countries. This is its second week in the Top 10. The film has been watched for 4.8 million hours.
