Austin Chronicle

This is no Ernest Cline novel; our emotional connection to the world and its characters goes far beyond the level of pop culture references.

The Age (Australia)

Free Guy is a very knowing movie, but part of its knowingness is its pop lightness -- even its blandness, if that can be seen as a virtue.

Rated: 3/5

KGET-TV (Bakersfield, CA)

Ryan Reynolds again proves he has a real knack for being able to combine huge action scenes and fast-paced humor into one strong production. It is his work in this look inside the video game world that is the real winner.

Rated: 3/4

In addition to the impressive visuals, hilarious comedy bits, and thrilling action sequences, Shawn Levy, Matt Lieberman, and Zak Penn offer a brilliant narrative that deeply explores human nature and what the viewers perceive as "real".
