Critic Reviews for Come True

All Critics (22) | Top Critics (3) | Fresh (19) | Rotten (3)

Come True does a great job masquerading as something intelligent and it almost succeeds.

Valerie Complex
The Nerds of Color
Come True is a smart sci-fi horror film that starts off with a familiar premise - a troubled teenager volunteers for a seemingly innocent sleep study - but keeps finding unique ways to explore the foreboding labyrinth that is the subconscious.

Tim Grierson
Screen International
Come True wants to be the kind of sci-fi movie that warrants multiple viewings, and gain a cult following. It deserves them.

Beyond the beautiful tableaus (I'm truly a sucker for the scene of the scientist sitting in front of flickering screens as it reminds me of a New 52 Joker shot) is the effective score.

...Julia Sarah Stone is captivating as she gives her character depth and nuance, making her someone the audience can connect with and care for.

Cinema Crazed
The dreamy visuals are sensual and chilling, with moments that lean into abject terror in ways I've never seen before.

Come True is a stylish and creepy sci-fi thriller, tipping its hat to some worthy predecessors.

Andrew Mack
ScreenAnarchy
Everything about the film's playful use of neon colors, its retro-futuristic visual aesthetic, its synth-heavy score and its genuinely unsettling depiction of nightmares all combine to make the film a must-watch.

Joe Lipsett
Bloody Disgusting
Come True is such a strong, ambitious, existential indie horror for so much of its runtime that it's definitely worth a watch.

Anthony Scott Burns continues to display a strong grip on the feast of dark imagery behind the camera.

A film about the epistemological dilemma of what is the reality and how can approach to it. A rearly masterpiece. [Full review in Spanish]
