"Outcome" is a dark comedy that centers on Reef Hawk (Keanu Reeves), a beloved Hollywood star who must dive into the depths of his hidden demons after he is extorted with a mysterious video that's sure to shatter his image and end his career. With the support of his lifelong besties Kyle (Cameron Diaz) and Xander (Matt Bomer), along with his crisis lawyer Ira (Jonah Hill), Reef embarks on a soul-searching journey to make amends with anyone he could have possibly wronged in hopes of identifying the blackmailer. Co-writer and director Hill brings a unique lens to Reef's wild but spiritually cleansing, nostalgic and eye-opening trip down memory lane, where confronting his past might be the only way to rescue his future.

Critics Consensus

Outcome collapses under its own ambitions, playing as a garish, tonally erratic and heavy-handed satire that fumbles its intriguing ideas about stardom in an overlong and largely unfunny jumble of wasted talent.

2.5/5

With Hill as Reef’s abrasive lawyer, the film veers between crude and cuddly. Watch it for Reeves’ heartfelt reaction shots and Martin Scorsese’s small but perfectly played role.

Ultimately Outcome needed a more refined, truthful director.

It’s hard to imagine this mumbling, shambling man holding multiplex masses in his thrall. As such, he’s a poignant void, but a void nonetheless, and even at a slim 84 minutes, Hill’s doleful film can’t keep us interested in his plight.

Never believable. There's no emotional weight. Unconvincing and far-fetched.

Maybe Jonah Hill is sorry for everything that he’s done. Maybe Outcome is the only way he knows how to express his apologies.

Outcome is a film that starts and finishes at nearly the same place, with an 80 minute runtime - not enough encourages one to go through this turbulent experience within the bounds of Hollywood.

Very entertaining. Keanu is great. Excellent cast. Good story. Limited plot holes. I liked the ending. Jonah Hill is over the top, but who cares. He’s always over the top. He should keep directing. Good film. I don’t get all the hate.

I’m not sure where all the hate for Outcome is coming from. It’s a pleasant, laugh on the inside film that handles a pretty loaded subject (celebrity, cancel culture, and crossing the line) with more nuance than expected. I also appreciated its perspective on child actors and Keanu Reeves gives the whole thing some grounding in reality. It may not be one for the ages, but it’s leagues above a lot of straight-to-streaming comedies. It should be no lower than 70% here in my opinion, and that makes me a little suspicious of why it's being slammed so hard.

When actors think they can Direct, Jonah Hill should stick to be a bad actor.

Another movie that makes me think a group of Hollywood friends get together and brain dump ideas for a movie. It is self serving and not at all entertaining. I continued to watch it to see and guess who the characters / actors were. Story line meant nothing. Acting and dialogue okay. Just wasn't into it. Cameron Diaz and Matt Bomer were the highlights.

This movie tried to make complex a simple premise which is not a problem, but the delivery felt like trying to touch every complexity on the surface without getting through any. I was struggling to stay connected. I got to connect to a few moments in the middle of the chaos but those get killed and dissolved into nothing. Felt like a collage that failed to create the intended whole picture.
