Joey Keogh Vague Visages Failure! is a failed experiment that grates more than it excites. Sep 21, 2023 Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film It’s a gem of a role for Raimi, who delivers the smooth talk and captures the high flying businessman look perfectly but shows us the human being behind them. Rated: 3.5/5 Sep 6, 2023 Full Review Emilie Black Cinema Crazed Overall, Failure! is not entirely bad, but it has issues and the way it is filmed and put together is not agreeable. Rated: 3/5 Sep 4, 2023 Full Review Kat Hughes THN A tour-de-force performance by Ted Raimi combines with some brilliant camera play to make Failure! an absorbing one-take wonder that keeps the viewer guessing. Rated: 4/5 Aug 30, 2023 Full Review Stephanie Malone Morbidly Beautiful The entire weight of the film rests upon the effectiveness of Ted Raimi's performance and his ability to emotionally invest viewers in his every move. Make no mistake; he absolutely nails it, ensuring the exquisitely orchestrated FAILURE! is anything but. Rated: 5/5 Aug 29, 2023 Full Review Chris Joyce Movies and Munchies (YouTube) There’s a very intriguing character study hidden in here somewhere, but the director seemed a little more keen on figuring out how to accomplish the gimmicky one-take rather than developing the narrative to be nuanced and impactful. Rated: 2.5/5 Aug 29, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews
