Critics Consensus

The Voices gives Ryan Reynolds an opportunity to deliver a highlight-reel performance -- and offers an off-kilter treat for fans of black comedies.

4/5

By playing with storytelling rules, almost to the point of madness, Satrapi has elicited sympathy for the devil.

2/5

Swerving between pink-hued small-town satire and visceral gore, The Voices aims for the ghoulish humour of Eating Raoul or Parents - and, for the most part, misses.

1/5

It's wretchedly unfunny and tonally erratic, the striking production design notwithstanding.

3/4

The setup isn't exactly a mainstream commercial concept, but the energetic execution will appeal to cult audiences and those with a lurid sense of humor.

Because Satrapi struggles to make gory moments gel with the visual comedy...The Voices is too uneven to become the cult classic it sounds like.

I feel like this is what movies will look like written by AI.... Green Lantern was more worthy of an award.

Great movie. It’s not very funny, but I don’t think it’s supposed to be. It’s a portrait of a troubled man who was broken by extreme childhood trauma.

A very quirky film but quite intriguing. Ryan Reynolds has proven with this film that he has major drama acting chops.

In My Opinion, This movie is one of the best Ryan Reynolds Titles. It provides a thoughtful and empathetic view into the mind of someone trying to better himself, but failing. The humor is dark but provides development for the Reynolds' character as the voices typically show his thoughts given psychical manifestation. Ryan's acting is well done, and the writing is on the higher side. It's different from other slasher movies as the character feels like a real human being. A nice thing about the movie is despite being a dark comedy, it still takes itself seriously, and there are a lot of moments that emphasize that this feels horrible for the character.
