South Koreanmusic criticKim Do-heon praised the album as "a clever piece of work" and "a well-thought-outK-popblockbuster",because of" the performance shown by the members who claim to be madmen, the spectacular production, and the mature narrative of growth. "[66]Crystal Bell fromNMEawarded the album five out of five stars, writing that it "will make you feel like you arrived at a party that's already in full-swing. [...]5-Staris disorienting in that way. But once your senses adapt to the frenzy and your body syncs to the rhythm, you lose yourself in itsluminescence."[22]

Writing forIze,Kim Sung-dae revealed that he "does not want to give [5-Star] five stars as the title ", and questioned," Isn't it a blessing in some way that incompleteness can be a compliment? "He summarized that" to critics, five stars mean a perfect score, but to Stray Kids,5-Starjust means 'weird and brilliant.' "[15]Lee Jae-hoon ofNewsisdubbed the album as a "K-pop adventure".[67]AllMusic's Neil Z. Young described that the album "wild ride[s] through genres and emotions," and "playing out like a hit to the head with a dozen anthems that only briefly allow for a breather."[64]Jeong Da-yeol fromIZMcommented the album "although the instrumental source and composition of each section with irregularities in the genre may take on a crude appearance, it took a familiar ride, arranged addictive repetitions, and hit the listeners' brains safely."[65]
