What to Know

Critics Consensus

A raucous capitalist critique, I Love Boosters careens through the carefully-controlled chaos of writer-director Boots Riley's imagination to deliver a comedy that's as funny as it is thought-provoking.

Peter Travers The Travers Take 1d
3/4
It’s Keke Palmer vs Demi Moore in a fashion smackdown from radically funny director Boots Riley who steals laughs from places you never thought you’d find them. Go to Full Review
Lindsey Bahr Associated Press 2d
2.5/4
It is a crime that this is only Riley’s second produced movie. Though it might not reach the crackling heights of his debut, “Sorry to Bother You,” his imagination is still on fire. Go to Full Review
Moira MacDonald Seattle Times 2d
3.5/4
Here’s hoping for a sequel; this charismatic quartet may well have another adventure up their very stylish sleeves. Go to Full Review
Allyson Johnson But Why Tho? 1h
7/10
With an outlandish sense of style, gleeful refusal to adhere to any pre-approved structural whim, and Palmer’s stratospheric charisma, Riley delivers distinctive visuals energized by high-octane exuberance at the sheer wonder of making a film. Go to Full Review
Alan French Sunshine State Cineplex 20h
9/10
Boots Riley is an integral voice in American cinema today. There’s no denying the confidence with which he approaches his material, and even with moments of messiness, it’s still a brilliant showcase. Go to Full Review
Ben Wasserman Film-Forward.com 20h
B+
It is satirical absurdism cranked up to at least 15, introducing more and more genre-bending gimmicks per scene yet never winking once as the ridiculousness piles up. Go to Full Review

Jacob 17m Exceeded my expectations! I loved the cast and the music. The costume and set design were amazing!! Definitely recommend others see it! It’s a really fun movie with an uplifting message of class consciousness and building community. See more Bill 33m Stupidest movie I have ever scene. Wasted money. Left half way through. DO NOT RECOMMEND See more Will Blow Your Mind!!! 1h Fandango only gives partial refundsI literally LOVED this movie called l LoVe Boosters because it was JAM packed with creativity, action, comedy, reality, drama, horroron everything-there is something for everybody on here. SEX Scenes not appropriate for children See more Rose 1h Unhinged and delightful See more Ralph Perez 4h Boots Riley is such an excellent storyteller! The humor and surrealism he infuses into the story of anti capitalism and pro socialist workers movements are brilliant. You get the narrative but you get humor and duality and growth. So good!!! See more Dakota J 7h This movie was not at all what I thought it was going to be about. too much stuff that looks like the Illuminati and alien type stuff. just not at all a cool movie in my opinion See more Read all reviews
