Absurd yet anchored in knotty real-world themes, The Day Shall Come adds another bleakly funny satire to director/co-writer Christopher Morris' filmography.

Witty and surreal, yes, savagely satirical and often chilling, but it's not really rolling-in-the-aisles material. October 15, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

The Day Shall Come has a disappointingly similar approach, while tackling a much less edgy and altogether easier-to-trounce subject. October 14, 2019 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

It's a diverting scenario, though maybe it doesn't quite have the "danger - high voltage" thrill of Morris's other works. October 11, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

The Day Shall Come isn't prime Morris, but it's definitely not a total bust, either. October 10, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

The Day Shall Come may draw from reality, but it fails to reflect it back to us with enough force to make us stop in our tracks. October 10, 2019 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

Morris has already proved he can do lacerating mockery. At a time when we hear ad nauseam that current events are "beyond satire", making people feel something may be the greater achievement. October 9, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

With such talent behind the scenes, it's not that difficult to coast by for a fun time. May 5, 2020 | Rating: 7/10 | Full Review…

THE DAY SHALL COME presents a character that longs for change. Although the issues are prodded rather than skewered, the film develops a sadness at the absurdity and lack of empathy that perpetuates a status quo with an expensive human cost. February 13, 2020 | Full Review…

There are perhaps as many jokes that don't land as those that do, but the sobering finale is good way of reminding us that any humour drilled from this subject can only go on for so long. February 6, 2020 | Rating: 7/10 | Full Review…

...lacks enough empathy for Moses and his family to create discomfort rather than laughter...The Day Shall Come feels shallow and misguided, without being funny enough to overcome that lack of understanding. January 21, 2020 | Full Review…
