Critics Consensus

A metaphysical headtrip grounded by Mary-Louise Parker and Ayo Adebiri's terrific chemistry, Omni Loop may not solve the meaning of life but it does deliver a brainy good time.

FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)

A low-energy Groundhog Day with no jokes... But it really is moving and assured.

A science fiction movie that’s more driven by concepts and emotions than by hardware or action.

Rated: 3/4

Brent Simon

AV Club

Measuring end-of-life anxiety with an open heart if not the most disciplined head, Omni Loop exists in a soupy, ill-defined emotional middle ground — occasionally amusing but not quite funny, and unable (or unwilling) to commit to penetrating melancholia.

Rated: C

Third Coast Review

Parker and Edibiri are charming as unlikely partners in this far-fetched mystery, but neither of them is really playing anything other than themselves...

Rated: 2.5/4

To give credit where credit is due, Omni Loop does manage to explore a time travel story from a new angle. Unfortunately, the experience of watching it also suggests that perhaps there is a reason why no one ever explored it previously.

I will say I’ve loved Parker in everything she’s ever appeared in, and though she plays this one wan and pinched, she does it well.

How anyone could say this a great movie is beyond me. This shows that people are not as intelligent and unable to write a good script.

Slowly evolving plot with myriad unexpected twists. The story developed slowly, requiring some patience on the viewer's part, but plenty intriguing all the same. There is depth and ambiguity, which makes this a powerful film that works on several levels. There is an obvious message one comes to in the end, but I loved that the film also implied other possible worlds and alternative endings. As always, Mary-Louise Parker was exceptional. She is such a captivating performer; conveys worlds in subtle facial expressions. Ayo Edebiri was also rock solid.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

The groundhog genre strikes again. But now in a philosophical feminine way. So bad that this has so many plot holes that they know and don’t even care.
