Cody Corrall Chicago Reader 02/15/2020
Weaving comes alive as a hilarious and deeply macabre play on the "final girl" archetype, and it's nothing short of cathartic to cheer her on and echo the rage that quickly consumes and empowers her. Go to Full Review

3.5/5
It's wildly entertaining and at a tight 90 minutes, it crackles with energy, never letting your attention waver. Go to Full Review
David Stratton The Australian 10/25/2019
1/5
Even by its own humble standards the plot is poorly worked out (a few lame attempts at social commentary criticising the rich are feeble in the extreme) and the dialogue is wretched. Go to Full Review

Everyone did a great job on this movie. Truly witty banter mixed with horrendous scenes of shocking brutality punctuates, the “just another day” feel of this black comedy. Go to Full Review
Julian Singleton Cinapse Jul 12
By the end of Ready or Not, each character feels fleshed out, the rituals feel both insane and logical, and the whole experience feels like a blood-soaked roller coaster ride you can’t wait to get back in line for. Go to Full Review

4/5
It's not perfect, and the mix of comedy and suspense probably won't be for everyone, but for Yours Truly, it ended up being a very fun experience that had me on the edge of my seat most of the time. [Full review in Spanish]. Go to Full Review

Mz. Ghostly Feb 16 A fun, twisted dark comedy of a bride trying to survive her first night with her new upper class family.
