Radheyan Simonpillai Guardian At two and a half hours, Oppenheimer’s strange and ambitious deconstruction of human behaviour can also be draining. Maybe that’s intentional. Rated: 3/5 Sep 13, 2024 Full Review Nick Schager The Daily Beast With his maiden foray into drama, the writer/director continues to prove himself one of modern cinema’s true greats. Sep 12, 2024 Full Review Mark Asch Little White Lies In a musical, music is used to give the characters a way to express what they mean to say... but the film’s dramatic and philosophical framework is so schematic, its dialogue so italicized with subtext, that the songs feel superfluous as well as prosaic. Sep 9, 2024 Full Review Prabhjot Bains But Why Tho? A Geek Community Expert craftsmanship has clearly gone into The End—the solemnly beautiful salt mine, gorgeous lighting, and cascading camerawork are a testament to that. But none of it can hide how one-note and monotonous the experience feels. Rated: 5.5/10 Sep 15, 2024 Full Review Jason Gorber Collider Stripped from narrative concerns and only focusing on the character beats, this is almost certainly a film that on revisit will reward those willing to once again lock themselves underground. Rated: 7/10 Sep 11, 2024 Full Review Natalia Keogan Paste Magazine The End never conjures a compelling enough thesis to justify its multiple massive missteps. Rated: 6.0/10 Sep 11, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
