3/5
It’s kind of a mess, but it’s specifically Verbinski’s mess and that makes for a propulsively chaotic ride. Go to Full Review Kevin Maher The Times (UK) Feb 25
2/5
I can’t remember seeing a film that espoused ideas and beliefs with which I agreed wholeheartedly (social media is evil and we’re all going to die) while simultaneously boring me stupid. Go to Full Review Helen O'Hara Empire Magazine Feb 24
3/5
This starts strong but doesn’t always have the room to explore all the ideas it crams in, even with a lengthy running time. Still, Rockwell’s man-on-a-mission is a delight. Go to Full Review Yasser Medina Cinefilia 1d
6/10
Despite the originality of its premise and the zany presence of Sam Rockwell, as a science fiction comedy it suffers from narrative irregularities that weaken the predictable subject of time travel and AI. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Jeff Beck The Blu Spot 3d
2.5/5
While it does have an important message about letting AI take over our lives, it's handled in such a clumsy manner that it ends up getting buried under the film's attempt to mix it with an action-based main plot & clunky backstories. Go to Full Review Dionar Hidalgo Algo Más Que Cine 5d
7/10
Chaotic, excessive and strangely compelling—Verbinski delivers a messy but energetic satire on AI and digital culture, elevated by Sam Rockwell’s magnetic performance despite its lack of focus. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

JaseMovieGuy 1d A really good movie I just didn’t like the pacing of it, a lot of back-and-forth I was expecting more of a linear timeline. See more Georgio Mar 31 a movie that's definitely the director's vision, unfiltered and that's something you don't definitely see nowadays. See more Alexander Mar 25 It’s everything you want from a movie See more Mr.O Mar 22 One of those weird movies where the plot is all within itself and has sub themes throughout the movie . If you can keep up, great movie . See more Andrew K Mar 22 I had a really good time with this movie. it's kind of silly and dumb. but there's nothing wrong with that. See more Josef G @Jimmygoombas Mar 19 this was one of the most bonkers and reality-bending movies I've seen in a while, had no idea where it was going and it kept me engaged until the very end. I think it will one day become a cult classic and looked back on fondly, especially for the way it explores technology, AI and our algorithmic hellscape. Sam Rockwell and the rest of the cast are hilarious, it's pretty awesome this movie exists at all tbh See more Read all reviews
