Alison Willmore New York Magazine/Vulture The rare offering that doesn’t just feel like it’s made by a person but by someone with an eye for visual, a distinctive voice, and a sharp sense of humor. Dec 9, 2023 Full Review Craig Mathieson The Age (Australia) It does waver at times, but the laughs are always backed by insightful ideas. Rated: 3/5 Aug 3, 2023 Full Review Randy Myers San Jose Mercury News His [Juel Taylor] is a richly imagined and visually impressive world, and the laugh-out-loud screenplay he and Tony Rettenmaier wrote fires off joke after joke while paying homage to blaxploitation films of yore. Rated: 3/4 Jul 26, 2023 Full Review Anna Hoang Boston Hassle Proudly flaunting its influences, THEY CLONED TYRONE vibes as the Mystery Inc. gang investigating Tuskegee if the episode were directed by ATLANTA's Hiro Murai. Rated: 4/5 Jul 17, 2025 Full Review Maxance Vincent Film Speak They Cloned Tyrone is an enjoyable watch, mostly due to the incredible work brought upon by Boyega, Parris, and Foxx, who give their all inside an aesthetically intricate and fun conspiracy comedy. Rated: B- Jul 13, 2025 Full Review Jack Walters Loud and Clear Reviews "They Cloned Tyrone is a stylish comedy that uses an intriguing sci-fi premise to build up some surprisingly poignant commentary on racial segregation." Rated: 3.5/5 Jan 18, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews
