Alonso Duralde The Film Verdict 10h
There’s an exhilaration to Harris’ direction; she brings to the film the confidence of a first-timer who’s both assured and unafraid. Go to Full Review Kristy Puchko Mashable 17h
Is God Is delivers filmmaking that is so mythic, mesmerizing, and menacing that it's easily one of the best movies of 2026. Go to Full Review Randy Myers San Jose Mercury News 1d
4/4
Harris directs with a ferocity that you can’t ignore and chews up the patriarchy and then lets out a collective, cathartic scream on behalf of Black women who are fed up with the wrongs that life throws at them and with being told how to deal with it all.

4/5
Hilarious but incisive in its reclamation of female rage in the face of patriarchal violence. You’ll laugh. You’ll cry. You’ll cheer. You’ll want to rage against the machine. Go to Full Review Lisa Laman The Spool 11h
A remarkable achievement on all fronts, Is God Is is a vengeance-fueled whirlwind not to be missed. Go to Full Review Chris Joyce Movies and Munchies (YouTube) 13h
3.5/5
While Is God Is is an emotionally confusing genre to start out, the end result is a pleasing, if not simplified and straightforward, revenge tale with passionate characters and a healthy dose of viciousness. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
