John DeFore Hollywood Reporter Villains has enough of its own offbeat energy not to come off as just another collection of young filmmakers' influences. Oct 4, 2019 Full Review Claudia Puig FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) A fairly funny black comedy. Oct 4, 2019 Full Review Bill Goodykoontz Arizona Republic "Villains" is a fun movie, but it's not a great one. Their next one might be. Rated: 4/5 Sep 26, 2019 Full Review Ryan McQuade InSession Film The themes and overall approach to the story is better executed here by Berk and Olsen, and will make for a highly enjoyable discovery for audiences later this year... Apr 4, 2024 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review Villains keeps the viewer invested in the moment-to-moment tension, but it never quite delivers the laughs or pushes our limits beyond acceptable norms. Rated: 2/4 Oct 11, 2022 Full Review Bianca Garner Next Best Picture Each key player manages to deliver a zany and humourous performance and the script is chock full of quotable lines of dialogue. This has all the hallmarks of becoming a well-loved cult classic. Rated: 8/10 May 5, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews
