Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die is neither lucky nor fun ... although it might make you want to play dead for at least a few minutes. Go to Full Review Robbie Collin Daily Telegraph (UK) 1d
4/5
It is grippingly unpredictable – a film with a glint in its eye and smoke curling from its nostrils and underpants. But you dismiss it, or miss it, at your peril. Go to Full Review Clarisse Loughrey Independent (UK) 1d
3/5
It’s ideologically flawed, structurally jumbled, and a little too enamoured by its dystopian predecessors. But it’s also sort of wonderfully personal, cranky and spiked -- like an affronted hedgehog trying to repeatedly ram your shin. Go to Full Review Marianna Neal Impression Blend 7h
7/10
Is there a bit too much going on here? Yes. But sometimes a messy movie just works, and "Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die" is a pretty great time. Go to Full Review Amelia Harvey Frame Rated 13h
4/5
The film has its finger firmly on the pulse of modern sentiment towards technology, yet possesses the chaotic filmmaking ethos of a retro 1990s outing. It has all the ingredients of a cult classic. Go to Full Review Jim Laczkowski Director's Club 16h
3/5
Way too long and not satisfying from beginning to end, but there are reasons to find this audacious and wildly entertaining especially thanks to Rockwell. It's messy but in ways that I found to be engaging especially on an intellectual level. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Steven A 2h Movie had a lot of potential to be a journey through an integrated Black Mirror-like sociological commentary with ideas on how we might fix our world but unfortunately degenerated into a non-sensical and absurd direction leading viewers with a Ground Hog Day feeling at the end...thoroughly disappointing for all of the 2 hours spent watching this. See more Syris 2h Such a fun movie! I loved it! See more Conyers Cinema Friday 3h If me and my friends could give the movie a fair 3.75 we would. It is an intriguing watch from start to end that left us wanting to rewatch the whole thing. We feel like it is peak cinema for this year so far. See more Danielle 12h Sam Rockwell was great. See more a 14h Very interesting ngl See more D 14h Worth watching if you love Sam Rockwell. See more Read all reviews
