Phil Hoad Guardian Writer-director Colin Krawchuk saddles us with a poorly written, lead-footed plot delivered in stodgy lumps between killings. Rated: 2/5 Nov 7, 2023 Full Review Miguel Calabria EscribiendoCine An interesting character totally squandered and wasted, surrounded by mediocrity and a dearth of good decisions. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 4/10 Mar 1, 2024 Full Review Milagros Amondaray La Nación (Argentina) While it attempts to explore a relationship that strengthens amid panic, The Jester is a superfluous record of a figure who, far from frightening, is a lackluster copy of infinitely superior characters of the genre. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 2/5 Feb 28, 2024 Full Review Edward Porter Sunday Times (UK) This American horror film has arrived in Britain too late for Halloween this year, and I’m not sure its bogeyman will be well enough remembered to inspire many costumes next October. Rated: 2/5 Nov 13, 2023 Full Review Martin Unsworth Starburst Like Art the Clown, the Jester is a great, simple concoction that is creepy enough to enter the imagination of fans. Rated: 3/5 Nov 6, 2023 Full Review Alan French Sunshine State Cineplex With nearly a decade of shorts in the book, The Jester finally gets a showcase. The result is a mixed bag. It showcases Krawchuk’s talent as a visual storyteller but stumbles with disconnected kills. Rated: 6/10 Oct 6, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

Julia S Muito ruim, o personagem é incrível mas o roteiro é horrível, vale a pena assistir só por causa do personagem Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 12/22/24 Full Review ioN G HUGE SPOILER this was ass sorry Rated 1 out of 5 stars 12/08/24 Full Review Ali A I still don’t see what’s the point of the Movie. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 12/07/24 Full Review Audience Member IT WAS JUST OK...SOMETHING TO WATCH Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/19/24 Full Review Calvin O It wasn't that boring, but the story didn't rym as I thought it would, "pick a card girl or u..." That sucked I thought he was gonna chop her head with the card after refusing to pick up the card. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 11/18/24 Full Review Abigail P I can’t believe this director got away with ripping off Art the Clown. The movie comes off as if a teenager tried to come up with an original concept after watching Terrifier and this was the best they could do. Very bad, not good, not even fun. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 11/18/24 Full Review Read all reviews
