4/5
For some, Behemoth! may feel like a rocky road to nowhere, but Gilroy’s wit and wordplay do a lot to enliven the journey. Go to Full Review Linda Marric HeyUGuys Oct 16, 2026
4/5
Behemoth! isn’t flawless, and it’s never in a hurry, but it knows what it wants to be. Pascal, Wilde and Arnett liven it up, and the music holds it together. Go to Full Review Siddhant Adlakha Observer Oct 12, 2026
2.5/4

Yes, it’s another story about a protagonist trying to come to terms with his trauma and awful parents, but it's hugely entertaining Go to Full Review Rebecca Johnson Talking Films 2 days ago
3/5
