The Workout carves out its own identity with grit and heart. It's an Imperfect film, but it’s a reminder that bold swings are what keep genre filmmaking alive. For fans willing to meet it halfway, it remains an enjoyable ride.

Rated: 3/5

The Weekend Warrior (Substack)

The type of movie that’s now been done so many times and so much better, adding absolutely nothing new or good to the genre.

Rated: 3/10

...the plot mostly plods along as a fairly standard revenge story and serves mostly to set up a few action set pieces through the film.

Rated: 3/5

Here’s the thing: The Workout has all the ingredients for a perfectly serviceable action flick — a charismatic lead, a capable supporting cast, and a simple revenge plot. But instead of trusting that, Bressack bets on a gimmick that doesn’t quite land.

Movie Madness Podcast

There is a fun idea at the center of a My Life meets found footage action mayhem but that lasts for about one scene. The fights begin to feel choreographed, the obvious twist is apparent from the opening scene and it just gets silly.

Rated: 1.5/4

There’s effort here, no doubt, and even a flicker of artistic ambition, but the result is a film that feels both inadequate and exhausting.

Rated: 1/4

Decent premise, interesting style, but struggled to create tension and some of the drama scenes were cringe inducing.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars
