Reviews
Re:Human has garnered a mixture of praise and critique from prominent reviewers. On Rotten Tomatoes, it holds a 78% approval rating, with critics applauding its ambitious storytelling and Endre Haukland’s compelling performance. The consensus highlights the movie’s "intriguing exploration of ethics in technology and gripping dramatic tension," though some mention that the pacing feels uneven in its second act. IMDb users have rated the film 7.4/10, appreciating its thought-provoking premise and atmospheric cinematography, but a subset of viewers find the complex narrative challenging to follow. Metacritic assigns a score of 69 out of 100, reflecting generally favorable reviews. The Hollywood Reporter praised it for "successfully balancing intellectual themes with emotional depth," while Variety noted, "Re:Human captivates with its visionary approach but occasionally stumbles under the weight of its own ambitions." Overall, the film is regarded as an engaging yet somewhat polarizing entry into the genre, praised for its originality and performances but divisive in narrative execution.
