Guy Lodge Variety A whirling, maximalist satire at once despairing and exuberant, subtle as a cannonball in its evisceration of the ruling classes and those who obey them, it’s both absurdist comedy and serious-as-cancer polemic... May 26, 2025 Full Review Ben Kenigsberg RogerEbert.com This frantic, outsized movie has a cumulatively purgative effect. May 23, 2025 Full Review Alison Willmore New York Magazine/Vulture The film may be rife with despair, but its own power is proof that art isn’t entirely futile. May 22, 2025 Full Review Dan Bayer Next Best Picture “Yes!” is an atom bomb thrown directly into a megaphone. Lapid’s message is urgent, and he has taken every precaution to ensure everyone hears it, except for compromising his vision. Rated: 7/10 May 28, 2025 Full Review Diego Batlle Otroscines.com Yes! is so full of ideas...and so powerful in its presentation of them that we are probably facing the most provocative, disturbing and uncomfortable film of the festival's 2025 harvest. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 4/5 May 27, 2025 Full Review Nicholas Bell IONCINEMA.com Lapid’s latest is an admonition of almost shocking import, an increasingly rare example of modern art speaking truth to power. Rated: 4/5 May 22, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews
