Sheila O'Malley RogerEbert.com The script is an airtight lair. Rated: 3/4 Sep 2, 2024 Full Review Ross McIndoe Slant Magazine For better and worse, you can tell that The Wasp was initially written for the stage. Rated: 2.5/4 Sep 2, 2024 Full Review Murtada Elfadl Variety Morales wisely relies on his two lead actors to bring taut vitality to the proceedings. However, as he keeps putting in many circular scenes that don’t differ much from each other, the intensity of their performances starts to feel inconsistent. Aug 31, 2024 Full Review Murjani Rawls Substream Magazine To its credit, The Wasp uses that simplification to its advantage and shows the film has much more to offer. Sep 25, 2024 Full Review Sumner Forbes Film Threat The sundry plot twists are forced, and eventually we mourn the fact that The Wasp ends up in a bizarre perversion of what it was initially set it up to be. Rated: 5/10 Sep 19, 2024 Full Review Sebastian Zavala Kahn Cinencuentro A pleasant surprise; a British thriller (by a Spanish director) that I knew little or nothing about, but that I ended up loving thanks to its efficient script, excellent acting, constant surprises, and intriguing themes. Full review in Spanish. Rated: 4.5/5 Sep 4, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Brian Blew my mind! No notes, please go in completely blind! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/05/24 Full Review Dan N Excellent film! New faces, Brit film, great performances. Great plot twists I never saw coming! Highly recommended! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/03/24 Full Review Calvin B WASP WAS GREAT. It had an amazing Plot with a twist that showed vengeance hurt despair and anger. Naomi Harris was off the chain with her acting. Dormer played a great supporting actress as well!!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/02/24 Full Review Kyle Underrated flick. Didn’t see much advertising if any but I was pleasantly surprised by this one. No really dull spots or lagging. Nice build and good tie together for everything as it moves along. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/31/24 Full Review Peter F It's well done. I actually thought the white woman's acting was the best and most believable, but strong acting all around. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/05/24 Full Review Dana M This was brilliant from beginning to end. The dialogue and acting were superb. The building of tension excellent. This film will sit with you long after. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/01/24 Full Review Read all reviews
