Critics Consensus

Not as fun as its initial premise promises, this time traveling slasher doesn't execute well, delivering a forgettable Time Cut.

Valerie Anne Autostraddle Overall the movie was a cute, fun time that coordinates perfectly with its fellow horror comedies, with less gore and genuine scares than Bodies Bodies Bodies, but more gays and heart than its fraternal twin, Totally Killer. Nov 8, 2024 Full Review Ben Travis Empire Magazine Destined to be forgotten the minute it’s finished, Time Cut is a passable addition to the slash-up genre – acceptable Halloween fare for the fright-challenged, or anyone with a soft spot for the music of Hilary Duff. Rated: 3/5 Nov 6, 2024 Full Review Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com There’s so little “fun” here, feeling as if everyone is merely fulfilling an obligation. Rated: 1/4 Nov 1, 2024 Full Review Taylor Henderson Out Magazine Where the film cuts corners on side character arcs and violence, it makes up for in heart. Jun 10, 2025 Full Review Jeffrey Lyles Lyles' Movie Files This is a premise that should result in a fun, culture clash style with the hero having to go old school to save a loved one. This underwhelming effort probably needed a bit more time fine-tuning the script and embracing the genre. Rated: 4/10 Dec 22, 2024 Full Review Trace Thurman Horror Queers Podcast An mess of film that's as inoffensive as it is confused, with questionable period details attempting to make up for a half-baked screenplay. Rated: 2/5 Dec 4, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Calvin O I've been waiting for this film for three years. Unfortunately, it's very hard to love. The violence is surprisingly tame, and no murder is shown on screen. (Beware, Terrifier fans!) It's not even PG-13, it's borderline PG. The recent trend of making films as desaturated and bleak as possible has plagued Time Cut as well, which simply makes no sense since the 2000s were famously colorful to the point of tastelessness. The editing is another issue-it's too twitchy to ignore. The killer teleports so much even Jason Voorhees would get uncomfortable, and his mask is some Max Headroom knock-off. Most importantly, the script itself is so increasingly fatigued that the third act can only be described as anticlimactic and unsatisfactory. The silver lining is that it has a variety of modern Canadian scream queens: Marina Stephenson Kerr (in a clearly reduced to blink-and-you'll-miss-it role; Channel Zero), Sydney Sabiston (All Fun and Games), Megan Best (Elevator Game) and Summer Howell (in what might be described as a cameo; Curse of Chucky). Alas, the lead actors didn't impress me that much. The soundtrack is decent and full of familiar songs of the era. The only truly satisfying thing might be the clothes-they were on-brand for the decade. The costume designer is arguably the only person involved who was actually invested in her job. All and all, no matter how you look at Time Cut, it's just not enough. It lacks some of the vital skills of a horror film, such as being scary. It's not funny, it's not smart, it's not totally killer, and it's not even trendy. Ugh, as if! Rated 2 out of 5 stars 10/07/25 Full Review Pinoy Short R Sayang oras, Oks sana un concept kaso andaming butas. Isa na dun e kung pano napunta sa future ang killer at ang motibo nito. Na enjoy ko naman kahit papano nang dahil sa soundtrack Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/25/25 Full Review Kacper O I love this 👍🩸🍿🔪 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/21/25 Full Review Draven B This movie is horrible so dumb. So many plot holes it’s rushed doesn’t make sense at all. Characters are dumb and everything was painfully obvious and they still have to spell it out. The writers should be ashamed and change careers Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/02/25 Full Review Rachel P I don't have anything to say about this movie. I will, however, suggest another movie with the similar time travel plot - 'Totally Killer' starring Kiernan Shipka, which is so much better than this one. It was funny and really enjoyable. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/24/25 Full Review Yahaira A Interesting idea terrible execution. Didn’t enjoy the main characters acting, super monotone.
