Johnny Oleksinski New York Post A welcome dose of shock therapy. Rated: 2.5/4 Oct 16, 2024 Full Review John Nugent Empire Magazine An ingenious, wildly stylish new take on the body-swap movie, this deserves to be a Gen-Z cult classic.  Rated: 4/5 Oct 8, 2024 Full Review Peyton Robinson RogerEbert.com “It’s What’s Inside” is a fun jaunt through the dynamics of a friend group and the interiorities of its members, even as it sanitizes its potential. Rated: 2.5/4 Oct 5, 2024 Full Review Cody Allen The Curb Netflix has a true banger on their hands with It’s What’s Inside! Jul 18, 2025 Full Review Dan Buffa Ramble On With Buffa (Substack) Best of all, Jardin’s film has a personality, a makeup all its own that includes title cards and a mix of tunes that keep us on our toes and enthused. These days, it’s a lot to ask a film you’re watching to have its own personality. Dec 29, 2024 Full Review Matt Pais MattPais.com A bunch of fun to experience in a giddy daze or perhaps with pen and paper in hand, mapping shifting identities and how current motivations are driven by past feelings and lingering curiosities. Rated: B Nov 21, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Chris O Fun movie. Passed the time. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 10/08/25 Full Review Greg V. It’s What’s Inside is a stylish and inventive thriller that blends sharp character drama with a clever twist on the classic “friends with secrets” setup. What begins as casual banter soon turns into a tense, unpredictable ride that holds attention until the credits roll. The Good The writing smartly balances humor with suspense, creating a natural rhythm that draws you in before pulling the rug out. Direction and editing keep the energy high, while the performances feel genuine and layered—particularly the leads, who handle both the light moments and the more dramatic turns with ease. The Not-So-Good Some of the story’s reveals feel stronger than others, and the pacing drags slightly in the middle. A bit of trimming could have made the impact even sharper. The Verdict Despite minor stumbles, It’s What’s Inside delivers a fresh and memorable take on modern thrillers. With engaging performances and a finale that sticks with you, it earns a confident 4 out of 5 stars. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/01/25 Full Review Vaughn R Tonight we watched this one. 'It's What's Inside' Brief synopsis; Couple Shelby, Cyrus and their friends Reuben, Dennis, Nikki, Brooke and Maya gather at Reuben's family home for a party before Reuben's wedding. Also attending is their arranged mutual friend Forbes who they have not seen since a party at college. Forbes arrives at the party, carrying a suitcase. Inside the case is a device that allows them to swap bodies with one another. He explains that he and his colleagues would use it to play a game. This game invokes trying to guess who's in who's body and things get pretty murky. High school crushes. Unresolved differences ect.. One thing leads to another (ov course) and two bodies with different people in them fall to their death, while having sex.... Who's body has died? How can this be fixed? Overall, we enjoyed this but it had more depth in its concept than its screenplay. Good editing and some interesting twists. Thee classic twist at thee end was good. Worth a look. Vaughn Roxx gives this 3.5 Stars ☆☆☆/ Sun Angel Roxx gives this 4 Stars ☆☆☆☆ Total 7.5 Stars out ov 10. ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆/ Check it out. 🤙😎 Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/28/25 Full Review J H I enjoyed the idea of the film, though it seemed like it never materialized. Should have focused more on the game aspect. I also was never able to remember the characters names. Not a good thing when a film is heavily focused on the characters names. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/06/25 Full Review Ale C Good movie, good script. Overall i would say, yes sure its worth the watch. Nothing too amazing though but nowadays they dont make good movies, an average one is hard to come by, this is what this is and a little more Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/04/25 Full Review Marissa A I loved how crazy it was, kept me on the edge of my seat!
