Coming soon
Release date: Sep 27, 2019
The movie doesn't seem to be playing near you.

Witty and surreal, yes, savagely satirical and often chilling, but it's not really rolling-in-the-aisles material. Oct 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. Oct 13, 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. Oct 11, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

It's a strange film that's never short of surprises, but as with Morris' best work, this subject might have been better served by a TV mockumentary. Oct 7, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Where 'Four Lions' is meticulously thought-through, this is a more scattergun sketch of politically motivated inhumanity. Oct 4, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

One of the best films of 2019, The Day Shall Come is fast-paced and features far wittier dialog than most domestic comedies. Oct 17, 2019 | Full Review…

With his puppyish, soulful eyes, newcomer Davis unlocks poignancy in his beleaguered sidewalk revolutionary, but the role needed an ebullient wild card, high on his own humbug - a Sacha Baron Cohen or a Tracy Morgan - to really make it fly. Oct 14, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

While I'm all for movies that come in around the 90 minute mark, this simply felt unfinished. Oct 14, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

We understand the implication of the film's point of view but its manipulations along the way to get us there feel too contrived to have real emotional weight. Oct 14, 2019 | Full Review…
