Critics Consensus

Jesse Eisenberg does some impressive work in Manodrome, even if the story isn't quite deep or nuanced enough to support his deeply committed performance.

Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com The cast gives their all, but the film ultimately has nothing to offer. Rated: 1.5/4 Nov 10, 2023 Full Review Richard Roeper Chicago Sun-Times Manodrome makes all the obvious moves. Rated: 2/4 Nov 10, 2023 Full Review Christian Zilko indieWire With the help of a hideous haircut, Eisenberg gives a convincing performance as a repressed loser who never discovered who he is and has officially run out of time to start. But Trengrove’s script is as directionless as his protagonist. Rated: C+ Nov 10, 2023 Full Review Murjani Rawls Substream Magazine With friends like these, who needs family? It’s exactly the problem Trengove’s feature highlights and tries to warn against. With that token, it bypasses all the deeper themes it could have used to flesh out its obvious warning signs. Dec 19, 2023 Full Review Todd Jorgenson Cinemalogue Muddled rather than provocative, this aimless drama about toxic masculinity and related ideologies is more compelling in the setup than the payoff. Dec 15, 2023 Full Review Akos Peterbencze The Screen ...there's an alluring quality to Manodrome, even if it’s not explored entirely, that provides enough ammo for a thought-provoking watch. And combined with a solid cast [...], it’s a movie that deserves a lot more recognition than it’s gotten initially. Nov 27, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

Jerod S Wanna watch Eisenberg meltdown in a lot of different scenarios? Wanna get slightly depressed? This movie is for you. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 07/16/24 Full Review Jade D This movie is an awesome reflection of how libertarians actually are and what they look like. Literally a cult. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/15/24 Full Review ALEXANDRE M Is one of worst movies! Roten tomatoes in the head! Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/09/24 Full Review Lloyd S From lex luthor to an insecure man taking a bbc up his ass. What a giant step forward. The first part of the movie was fine, until the protagonist changed direction completely. The manodrome cult was interesting. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 03/06/24 Full Review Michael V Manodrome is a 2023 drama thriller film written and directed by John Trengove 🧍‍♂️ Meh, it passed the time. Just. 😐 👍🏼👎🏼 Ralphie is an Uber driver and aspiring bodybuilder who is inducted into a libertarian masculinity cult and loses his grip on reality when his repressed desires are awakened Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/24 Full Review Larry B It was a good movie. Super suspenseful and crazy. The acting was amazing! Love the 2 kids who played son Drew and son Paul in the movie. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/22/24 Full Review Read all reviews
