What to Know

Critics Consensus

Outcome collapses under its own ambitions, playing as a garish, tonally erratic and heavy-handed satire that fumbles its intriguing ideas about stardom in an overlong and largely unfunny jumble of wasted talent.

2.5/5
With Hill as Reef’s abrasive lawyer, the film veers between crude and cuddly. Watch it for Reeves’ heartfelt reaction shots and Martin Scorsese’s small but perfectly played role. Go to Full Review

Ultimately Outcome needed a more refined, truthful director. Go to Full Review
Guy Lodge Variety Apr 14
It’s hard to imagine this mumbling, shambling man holding multiplex masses in his thrall. As such, he’s a poignant void, but a void nonetheless, and even at a slim 84 minutes, Hill’s doleful film can’t keep us interested in his plight. Go to Full Review

Never believable. There's no emotional weight. Unconvincing and far-fetched. Go to Full Review

Maybe Jonah Hill is sorry for everything that he’s done. Maybe Outcome is the only way he knows how to express his apologies. Go to Full Review
Connor Petrey Pop Culture Leftovers May 17
Outcome is a film that starts and finishes at nearly the same place, with an 80 minute runtime - not enough encourages one to go through this turbulent experience within the bounds of Hollywood. Go to Full Review

Thomas H. @hille 3d When actors think they can Direct, Jonah Hill should stick to be a bad actor. See more Mich C @MichC 3d Another movie that makes me think a group of Hollywood friends get together and brain dump ideas for a movie. It is self serving and not at all entertaining. I continued to watch it to see and guess who the characters / actors were. Story line meant nothing. Acting and dialogue okay. Just wasn't into it. Cameron Diaz and Matt Bomer were the highlights. See more Lola T @RT54341722 4d This movie tried to make complex a simple premise which is not a problem, but the delivery felt like trying to touch every complexity on the surface without getting through any. I was struggling to stay connected. I got to connect to a few moments in the middle of the chaos but those get killed and dissolved into nothing. Felt like a collage that failed to create the intended whole picture. See more Deirdre O. @DedeO 4d Complete rubbish. Why did I sit through this? See more Lynette W @LynHarm 5d I will never understand how A listers like Reeves, Diaz and Scorcese accepted the roles in movie like that. See more Horror fan 4 @Horrorfan4life 5d A very underrated movie about the pressures of Hollywood and the dark side of it. Directed brilliantly by Jonah Hill and starring a great cast. This movie follows Reef going on an apology tour because he's being blackmailed. Buddy played by spade is his neighbor. The humor in this is on point and it's great seeing Cameron Diaz back doing movies. I absolutely loved this movie. Keanu gives a great performance and Jonah in front of the camera looks great.
