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.

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.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | May 28, 2021

It's very thought-provoking and really interesting... definitely worth watch

Full Review | Original Score: 7.5/10 | Apr 30, 2021

Completely surreal in places and ends in a big musical number, The Voices is one of those films you need to see to believe.

Full Review | Feb 3, 2021

It's still shocking right through to the end, but the shudders are tempered with insightful comments on the human condition, and surprisingly, a dance number.

'The Voices' is a different film without being experimental, that has a great work by Ryan Reynolds, and the rest of the characters with some weight in the plot are also at a good level. [Full Review in Spanish]

[T]he performances and the style of the production is fantastic.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Nov 19, 2019

[S]o the film was never meant to be a realistic study of psychosis, more a dark comedy about a reluctant serial killer, but any potential enjoyment is soured by its repugnant attitude towards mental illness and, of course, women.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Oct 23, 2019

Profound mental illness is rarely a laughing matter, but The Voices proves that no subject is too bleak to wring comedy from.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jul 20, 2019

Here we have a rather sluggish and tonally awkward blend that is neither successful as a comedy or a darker genre effort.

Full Review | Jul 18, 2019

Somewhat resembling Pushing Daisies if starring Norman Bates, The Voices is a strangely macabre, entertaining spate of lurid whimsy.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 11, 2019

Really, this is Reynolds' and Satrapi's show and they've both done fantastic work, creating a gory horror-comedy that is funny, unsettling, character driven, and unexpectedly deft.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Apr 4, 2019

The Voices is a horrifying and hilarious mind trip, both morbid and heartfelt.

Full Review | Dec 7, 2018

The Voices [is] one of the most entertaining of its kind since Donnie Darko confused us all over a decade ago. Give the movie a chance, these voices demand to be heard.

Full Review | Original Score: 7/10 | Oct 24, 2018

Sometimes may feel like its struggling to get settled into what it's really looking to achieve, although that could well be by design as it does add a frantic, impulsive edge to the film.

Full Review | Original Score: 7/10 | Apr 11, 2018

Despite committed performances, The Voices can never transcend the inherent problems in its screenplay.

Full Review | Oct 11, 2017

Visually, the film's amazing, blending the everyday with more fantastical elements in a small-town, blue collar version of the fairy tale Iranian landscape in Chicken with Plums.

Full Review | Sep 20, 2016

Those that are on-board with its distressing comedy will find both an acute exploration of mental illness and the makings of a cult classic.

Full Review | Original Score: B+ | Jun 21, 2016

On paper, it all might sound rather sad and grubby, but it is actually a rather elegant little macabre tragedy.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/5 | May 27, 2016

While it may not necessarily be a film that will be universally embraced by genre fans, The Voices is a triumphant example of independent filmmaking at its very best and is undoubtedly one of the best roles Reynolds' has tackled to date.
