Steve Pond TheWrap It’s a deeply personal look at loss that finds plenty of time to get creepy but never loses sight of the fact that it’s a movie about grief. Aug 8, 2024 Full Review Justin Chang New Yorker A drolly fluid inspection of classic Cronenberg themes -- the deterioration of the flesh, the instability of the image, the paranoia-inducing incursions of technology into every aspect of life -- but imbued with a nakedly personal dimension. May 30, 2024 Full Review Peter Howell Toronto Star Possibly the Toronto writer/director’s best film, showcasing his fascination with body horror, advanced technology and high paranoia in a way that also genuinely touches the heart. Rated: 3.5/4 May 28, 2024 Full Review Chris Bumbray JoBlo's Movie Network Cronenberg's kinkiest movie since Crash. Sep 6, 2024 Full Review Jim Schembri jimschembri.com As is often the case, the latest off-piste offering from David Cronenberg is more enjoyable for its play of ideas than for any adherence to mundane notions of plot or resolution...Plenty of off-the-wall fun. Catnip for fans. Rated: 3.5/5 Sep 5, 2024 Full Review Eliza Janssen Flicks (AU, NZ, UK) If you can count on any filmmaker to deliver their own confounding, provocative obituary while they’re still (thankfully!) living and walking amongst us, it’s Cronenberg.
