In this gritty super-stylish thriller, Mouse (Hayley Law), is an irreverent dancer at a dead-end burlesque club run by Mama (Famke Janssen), a tough, shady club owner. When Mouse's only friends and fellow club dancers go missing under mysterious circumstances, nobody at the club seems too concerned about them, and the police couldn't care less. Mouse and her constant sidekick Ugly (Keith Powers) quickly realize that it is up to them to dig up all the dirt and start the hunt for the culprits. Desperate for answers and with time running out, Mouse chooses a very risky play that plunges her further down the rabbit hole and into a sordid underworld, leaving her out in the open. What she discovers is that corruption runs deep, monsters are real, and that sometimes, justice is meant to be taken into your own hands.

It occasionally feels a bit like an extended music video, but what’s there is a bop and it’s watchable throughout.

Rated: 3/5

Globe and Mail

A series of motions, bumps, swerves, dodges and turns, all deployed for a journey to nowhere special.

Cinema Crazed

A pulpy, neo-noirish, crime thriller with some great references to comic books and a very clever use of animation...

Door Mouse doesn’t have much to say, but plenty to show us. That’s something, but it’s not quite enough.

Film Inquiry

Door Mouse is a slick neo-noir that adds a lot to a genre that we don’t get enough of.

If there is any justice, Door Mouse will garner the attention it deserves for being a well-defined narrative brought to life effectively.

Rated: 4/5

This movie kept my attention throughout the whole thing, I was excited to see what would happen next & who is who as the film went on. A lot of cool aspects like the comic book scenes that occur when she's taking mental notes of what to jot down for her writing later, the "bad guys" were all intriguing & some of the scenes are extremely memorable, would recommend this movie to anyone, unless you're a billionaire.

I was really impressed with this movie. The lead actress was great, I have not been able to watch anything with her in it before and she did an amazing job as did her co star "Ugly". I hope both of them are able to do more movies.

Imaginative and badass. Avan Jogia's directorial and writing debut is unique, dark, and powerful. Challenging authority is never a bad thing.
