Critics Consensus

A would-be thriller that leans a little too hard into its hero's existential crisis, Exit Plan will leave most viewers looking for the door.

Peter Travers

Rolling Stone

Not even the indisputable charisma of 'Game of Thrones' star Nikolaj Coster-Waldau will get you through this Danish downer about a hotel for suicides. Even if you're watching at home, you'll be running for the exits.

Rated: 1/5

Katie Walsh

Los Angeles Times

There is real potential in this premise, and a few flickers of genuine artfulness, but the storytelling is frustratingly abstruse, making for an "Exit Plan" that's a real missed opportunity.

Film Inquiry

Exit Plan perfectly balances the suspense of a thriller while asking deep questions about how we die. If the topics are not too heavy, Exit Plan is enjoyable and thought-provoking.

Culture Mix

The morose atmosphere drags the film down even more when the movie is already boring and aimless. [Main character] Max wants to be put out of his misery. Viewers of Exit Plan will feel another kind of misery from watching this film.

With its somewhat plodding pace and shifting timelines, Exit Plan can be hard to follow, but this hallucinogenic, slow-burn thriller is worth following.
