The Voices | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Sophie Monks Kaufman Little White Lies By playing with storytelling rules, almost to the point of madness, Satrapi has elicited sympathy for the devil. Rated: 4/5 Mar 26, 2015 Full Review The Voices | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Mark Kermode Observer (UK) Swerving between pink-hued small-town satire and visceral gore, The Voices aims for the ghoulish humour of Eating Raoul or Parents - and, for the most part, misses. Rated: 2/5 Mar 22, 2015 Full Review The Voices | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Wendy Ide Times (UK) It's wretchedly unfunny and tonally erratic, the striking production design notwithstanding. Rated: 1/5 Mar 19, 2015 Full Review The Voices | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review The setup isn't exactly a mainstream commercial concept, but the energetic execution will appeal to cult audiences and those with a lurid sense of humor. Rated: 3/4 Jun 21, 2022 Full Review The Voices | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Nick Levine NME (New Musical Express) Because Satrapi struggles to make gory moments gel with the visual comedy...The Voices is too uneven to become the cult classic it sounds like. Rated: 3/5 May 28, 2021 Full Review The Voices | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Emma Wolfe SpookyAstronauts It's very thought-provoking and really interesting... definitely worth watch Rated: 7.5/10 Apr 30, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews

Dawn B Was mildly amusing to start. Had to use subtitles as audio a bit off, so dint get to read as much as my book as I would have done b.utt. It needed to have more variety and depth. Disappointingly dismal attitude to psychosies. Should have played on actual avenues of this particular subject. Skim-laugh, smegma (I dint laugh) Felt ending was a bit sick. It was no May 33rd. I shoulda scored it lower. 5.4/0. 4.10.24. D.B. Rated 2.5/5 Stars • Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 10/04/24 Full Review Sean D Really great and underrated little movie. That perfectly blends dark humour to a pretty engaging story, and emotional ending .Easily one of Ryan Reynolds's best performances Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/21/24 Full Review Necronomicon J Loved it, a bit uneven at times and certainly not a comedy. Dark, surreal and oddball. certainly worth a watch. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/09/24 Full Review Molly G Visually stunning. The best I've ever seen from Ryan Reynolds. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/24/24 Full Review Will B This was an excellent movie, more of a comedy than a thriller. A young Ryan Reynolds portrays an accidental serial killer which takes a turn with voices from Mr Wiskers or Bosco keep talking to him. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/07/24 Full Review Christian Didn't laugh once. A bad idea that was poorly executed. Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 12/28/23 Full Review Read all reviews
