Being stranded on a deserted island leaves young Hank (Paul Dano) bored, lonely and without hope. As a rope hangs around his neck, Hank prepares to end it all, until he suddenly spots a man (Daniel Radcliffe) laying by the shore. Unfortunately, he is dead and quite flatulent. Using the gassy body to his advantage, Hank miraculously makes it back to the mainland. However, he now finds himself lost in the wilderness, and dragging the talking corpse named Manny along for the adventure.

Critics Consensus

Disarmingly odd and thoroughly well-acted, Swiss Army Man offers adventurous viewers an experience as rewarding as it is impossible to categorize.

The third act dissolves back into emo indulgence. But before then, you may just have found yourself briefly watching in wonderment, only disturbed by the nagging feeling that this is all very wrong.

Rated: 3/5

Independent (UK)

Two fine actors giving full-blooded performances can't prevent Swiss Army Man from seeming pretentious and self-indulgent.

Without question one of the most unusual films of the year, Swiss Army Man shows Radcliffe can play a man who died as well as the Boy Who Lived.

I always respect when someone commits completely to an absurd idea and this is a great example of that. I'm down for whatever Daniels is cooking at this point.

No creo poder recomendar esta película, pero es entrañable y rara, pero lo mejor es la perspectiva que te dan de los seres humanos.

Wildly strange & captivatingly unique. The weirdness is a lot but not distracting as the writing & acting are incredibly sharp. The editing, set design, & score are breathtaking with surprising thematic emotions.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

This film is a brilliant film woth a ridiculous premise that works perfectly if you really think about it. It's full of heart, humor and two terrific performances by the lead actors.
