Siddhant Adlakha Variety The movie mutates beyond recognition, refusing to stick to any one idea for longer than a couple of scenes. Jul 7, 2024 Full Review Abe Friedtanzer Awards Buzz Clunky but still laden with laughs, an odd specimen that at times does prove truly entertaining. Rated: 6/10 Jul 27, 2024 Full Review Dan Bayer Next Best Picture The three leads are all perfectly cast to character, with Magaro’s nebbishy persona, Buscemi’s matter-of-factness, and Lower’s intensity serving as perfect foils for each other. Rated: 7/10 Jul 26, 2024 Full Review Emily Cappello Collider While most movies have a particular section reserved for fun and games, Karaçelik's tale is engaging in its entirety, with captivating performances from its cast that will make parting ways with Keane, Suzie, and Kollmick a difficult thing to do. Rated: 8/10 Jul 8, 2024 Full Review Paul Emmanuel Enicola The Movie Buff The film adds its main character into a growing list of ‘self-absorbed struggling writer’ movie tropes, but doesn’t provide more dimension to its characterization that helps leave a distinct mark. Rated: C Jul 6, 2024 Full Review Anton Bitel Projected Figures Tolga Karaçelik’s wry writer’s block-buster hilariously mixes its metaphors about marriage and murder Jun 30, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
