Zack Handlen of ''[[The A.V. Club]]'' gave the episode a B+, calling it a "solid entry" that allows "nearly every major character a moment to shine."[Handlen, Zack (2010-06-15). [https://www.avclub.com/star-trek-the-next-generation-manhunt-the-emissary-1798165468 "''Star Trek: The Next Generation'': 'Manhunt'/'The Emissary'/'Peak Performance.' "] ''[[The A.V. Club]]''. Retrieved 2022-02-05.] [[Keith DeCandido]] of [[Reactor (magazine)|''Reactor'' magazine]] rated the episode 7 out of 10. He thought the dialogue was excellent and the episode displayed some great camaraderie between the cast, showing how well they can work together. His main complaint was that the finale with the Ferengi ship didn't hold together logically, with arbitrary damage to the ''Enterprise'' seemingly designed to set up an achievable challenge.[{{cite magazine |date=2011-10-24 |last=DeCandido |first=Keith R.
