Movie Reviews

The New York Times - 9/10 by Neil GenzlingerIt’s tantalizing, sublimely creepy stuff that keeps you guessing even after the credits roll.
Village Voice - 7/10 by Chuck WilsonThanks to Ashton's brilliant, career-defining performance, we're made to see that the only thing worse than doing evil deeds is being nice enough to feel guilty about them.
Chicago Tribune - 6/10 by Michael PhillipsA fair amount of Uncle John puts us behind the wheel or alongside Ashton as he drives, preoccupied with his misdeeds, along country roads lined with cornfields. No dialogue needed; in these transitions, Ashton and his surroundings are enough.
The Hollywood Reporter - 5/10 by Frank ScheckWhile both plots work reasonably well separately, they're unnecessarily padded and don't tie together strongly. As a result, the film doesn't achieve its goal of its sum being bigger than its parts.
Los Angeles Times - 3/10 by Martin TsaiPerhaps the vapid existence of millennials is precisely the point that co-writers Erik Crary and Steven Piet (who also directs) are driving at, but the film itself proves inarticulate and unsubstantial.
User Review - 9/10 by toastedalmondPleasantly surprised. Something different. I watch too many movies and this one was refreshing for the flawlessly real performances, the extreme plausibility, and the breakage from the mold of common movies. The characters and situations were easy to identify with. When I read the negative reviews it makes me think the critics have some baseline formula for how movies are supposed to proceed and judge a movie for deviating from the prescription. I greatly appreciate how the story lines tied to together without colliding as almost any other American movie would have--with a big exciting action packed finish that would leave us mildly satisfied. I thank the makers of this movie for doing something uncommon and surprising me. Well done.
