Guy Lodge Variety Wenger’s script is a sly, finely balanced thing, pointedly and often hilariously poking fun at corporate and capitalistic ideals of self-improvement and social coordination, without ridiculing the individuals who feel beholden to those standards. Sep 1, 2024 Full Review Wendy Ide Screen International The smart concept, social commentary and a strong central performance from Albrecht Schuch combine to create a polished, slyly entertaining work that should attract arthouse audiences. Aug 31, 2024 Full Review Claire Fulton Loud and Clear Reviews With confidence and a really engaging central performance, Peacock navigates the tricky space of understanding yourself in an environment that constantly requires you to be someone else. Rated: 4/5 Sep 1, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
