Critics Consensus

A grounded superhero story with more on its mind than punching bad guys, Fast Color leaps over uneven execution with a singular Gugu Mbatha-Raw performance.

This is an ambitious project from director Julia Hart, who is a talented artist in her own right. There’s a lot here to like, and you can see the pieces of an incredible film here...

In Fast Color, cast members bring warmth and empathy to their roles. David Strathairn is a welcome presence in a key supporting part.

Different. I wish they took a few more risks, especially at the end. But overall I really liked the film, and Gugu is spectacular as always.
