Pramit Chatterjee from Mashable stated the show as "A Mind-numbing Political Thriller For Internet Edgelords And Ignorant Boomers" {{cite web|url=https://in.mashable.com/entertainment/18453/dark-7-white-review-a-mind-numbing-political-thriller-for-internet-edgelords-and-ignorant-boomers|title=A Mind-numbing Political Thriller For Internet Edgelords And Ignorant Boomers|website=in.mashable.com|date=24 November 2020 }}

Prathyush Parasuraman from Filmcompanion stated in his review "Actors like Vyas capable of good performances play caricatures of stereotypes and it is heartening to see them unfettered, and un-embarrassed by the writing, which is click-bait-with-zero-weight."{{cite web|url=https://www.filmcompanion.in/streaming/dark-7-white-review-zee5-alt-balaji-wears-its-stupidity-its-sexuality-and-its-rotten-swag-on-its-sleeve-sumeet-vyas/|title=Dark 7 White On ALT Balaji and Zee5 Wears Its Stupidity, Its Sexuality, And Its Rotten Swag On Its Sleeve|website=filmcompanion.in|date=24 November 2020 }}
