Nick Allen RogerEbert.com A special kind of botched sci-fi film experiment. Rated: 1/4 Sep 29, 2017 Full Review Kimber Myers Los Angeles Times Unfortunately, the movie's over-dependence on voice-over and its overwritten script interfere with the audience being able to fully engage. Sep 28, 2017 Full Review Ken Jaworowski New York Times Like a "Black Mirror" episode combined with a philosophy seminar, "Realive" has plenty of brains. Yet it has a heart, too, and that adds a surprising amount of emotion to this above-average science-fiction film. Sep 28, 2017 Full Review Leigh Monson Substream Magazine Realive starts to feel like watching the Architect's monologue from The Matrix Reloaded on repeat for two hours. Rated: 2/5 Oct 1, 2020 Full Review Emilie Black Cinema Crazed ... a powerful movie that leaves the viewer feeling and questioning things. Rated: 4/5 Apr 19, 2020 Full Review Joe Lipsett Queer.Horror.Movies. Realive is a solid entry in Mateo Gil's wheelhouse of deeply resonant emotional dramas(...) This "wrong time" love story works because of the chemistry between the leads, even if the present day/future conflicts pale slightly in comparison. Sep 21, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Okay, in all honesty I watched this because I love Tom Hughes, but dude this was pretty bad. If you want to question your life choices, cry, and then wonder if you should've chosen a better film, then i suggest watching Realive. It's pretty much just about Marc (Tom Hughes) talking about his life and his crappy relationship luck, then him popping up in however many years into the future and disliking it. The ending was also meh. Tried liking it but its just not for me. If you want to watch a show with Tom Hughes like I did, I recommend you watch "The Game" because that was prime cinema. Thanks. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 09/29/24 Full Review KB B This was a compelling movie which was very contemplative. Stick with it because I almost stopped watching it pretty early then changed my mind. I didn't agree with Mark's philosophy on life and death but it was still an enjoyable watch. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/05/23 Full Review carlo f one of the worst movie that I have seen in my life. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review robert p Such a long movie and this poor guy goes through hell recuperating only to learn he can't comit suicide anymore, is a total bummer of a movie, thus my *2* star rating!! Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Feel like a long-winding diary reading in a laboratory. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review bryan b Live Futurama complete with cutoff heads. Another I got what I asked for but didn't consider the consequences so you in the audience should be happy with what you have message movie.
