A visual treat filled out by consistently stellar work from Robert Pattinson, Good Time is a singularly distinctive crime drama offering far more than the usual genre thrills.

Robert Daniels 812filmreviews Good Time isn't an exuberant or happy-go-lucky emotional ride, rather it's the cruel irony of white privileged in even the lowest rungs of class. Rated: 3.5/4 Aug 27, 2018 Full Review Donald Clarke Irish Times Nick's character doesn't exactly develop, but we do see its innards teased gradually apart. Ben Safdie's touching performance bookends the film with enormous grace. Rated: 4/5 Nov 29, 2017 Full Review Mark Kermode Observer (UK) Pattinson is utterly convincing as the Manson-eyed Connie, a manipulative force of nature (alternately mesmerising, repugnant and pathetic) who leaves a trail of destruction in his wake. Rated: 4/5 Nov 19, 2017 Full Review Colin Biggs Vague Visages Refreshingly, The Safdie brothers don’t ask viewers to see the alternatively neon and concrete world through Connie’s eyes, but to witness him inflict his will on others. Mar 25, 2024 Full Review Benedict Seal Vague Visages Ultimately, a strong Robert Pattinson performance is let down by this blundering thriller that’s an assault on the senses and the mind. Dec 5, 2023 Full Review Peter Bell Vague Visages By exposing the falsehood of one’s presumption of power, the Safdies awaken viewers to the inescapable consequences of their actions and weaknesses, along with the vulnerability of their own fate.

Theo E A Haiku Review: Who is meant to like This guy? Even his struggle… Uninteresting Rated 1 out of 5 stars 08/30/25 Full Review Lisa L Robert Pattinson gives a great performance, but if you're not a fan don't waste your time with this. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 08/27/25 Full Review Jon R. Go go go from start to finish. Robert Pattinson and Benny Safdie are awesome in this one, great actors good movie. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/15/25 Full Review Troy D I loved the style of this movie Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 08/14/25 Full Review Ben S A hectic sprint from start to finish, which will have you locked in no matter what is thrown Connie's way. A wildly impressive job by Pattinson in making his character raw and disheveled, yet charming and intelligent. Despite his flaws, you find yourself rooting for him more than not. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/03/25 Full Review CaptainBoulder T Good movie, but felt slow at times Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/17/25 Full Review Read all reviews
