Critics Consensus

Fumbling the ball well before the red zone, HIM has style to spare but botches its promising conceit with rookie execution.

Audience Says

Cool ideas don’t always coalesce into a powerful narrative, and while HIM charges full force with visual aplomb and bold symbolism, it ultimately falls short of a cinematic touchdown despite its intriguing social commentary.

Wenlei Ma

The Nightly (AU)

Him falls apart in the second half as it becomes overwhelmed by everything it wants to say about football as a religion - and subtext very quickly becomes text.

Rated: 2/5

Wendy Ide

Observer (UK)

Directed with the hollow showiness of an advert for trainers, this is a film that, despite the macho toxicity, only comes alive when Julia Fox’s malevolent trophy wife is on screen.

Sydney Morning Herald

Tipping and his editors are experts when timing and choreographing the film’s nastiest moments, and the compound’s design...has a genuinely sinister atmosphere. But they don’t know when enough is enough.

Rated: 3/5

Algo Más Que Cine

Ambitious in look and concept, yet 'Him' never finds its heartbeat. It drowns its critique of sport’s worship in heavy symbolism and shallow characters — style over substance that leaves a hollow echo.”

Rated: 4/10

That Shelf

On its own, ambiguity can be a net positive storytelling-wise, but in [Him] it betrays both a shortage of meaningful ideas and the unwillingness to explore whatever ideas it does weave into the underwhelming, forgettable result.

Decider

The biggest issue is Cam himself, whose inner life is cobbled together out of sketchy cliches and never offers us an emotional handhold, neutering the final scenes’ attempts at catharsis.
