Alexander Mooney Slant Magazine If Dead Man’s Wire adds up to less than the sum of its vicarious jolts and sardonic jabs, it’s perhaps a result of Gus Van Sant’s style fading into the background. Rated: 2.5/4 Sep 19, 2025 Full Review Siddhant Adlakha Observer There’s something to be said about movies that are just good enough, especially those that refashion real events into cinematic junk food. Rated: 2.5/4 Sep 13, 2025 Full Review Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com It's consistently well-made in a way that reminds one how much competent filmmaking can be half the battle. Sep 11, 2025 Full Review Terence Johnson Le Noir Auteur Dead Man’s Wire isn’t quite as life changing as some other movies, but does quite well at honing in on some topical material and giving us a great Bill Skarsgaard performances. Sep 19, 2025 Full Review Clotilde Chinnici Loud and Clear Reviews Overall, Dead Man’s Wire is a brilliant and surprisingly hilarious film that manages to speak to today’s struggle against a capitalist society that only wants to see a rich minority succeed. Rated: 4/5 Sep 15, 2025 Full Review Alex Papaioannou InSession Film All in all, it makes for a film that’s both very entertaining and unfortunately timely in its capturing of times never changing, despite these events mattering more than anything to a majority of people. Rated: B- Sep 15, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews
