Nick Howells London Evening Standard However, what makes this wickedly entertaining is how ridiculously amusing it is, and how such an incredibly stupid proposition ended up being so watchable. Rated: 4/5 Oct 21, 2024 Full Review Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com We haven’t even scratched the surface of “Pandemic Stories” that will unfold on screen over the next generation, but you won’t see another one quite like this. Mar 16, 2024 Full Review Joe Gross Austin Chronicle This whole project results in absolute hilarity but the film is also exceptionally moving. Mar 12, 2024 Full Review Olivia Popp Cineuropa Given that the actors-cum-gamers are operating in a virtual space with players from around the world, the film boasts several unexpected twists and a healthy dose of hilarity. However, the premise is ultimately more interesting than the actual execution. Oct 21, 2024 Full Review Dan Scully ScullyVision Humans are a decidedly unserious lot, all things considered, and our need for play — for expressing joy — bonds us all. Oct 21, 2024 Full Review Daniel Allen Loud and Clear Reviews I fell in love with Grand Theft Hamlet almost immediately. It is a fantastic and wildly inventive documentary that plays into the absolute absurdity of its central mission, leading to unpredictable and extremely entertaining moments. Rated: 5/5 Oct 17, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
