Nope

It reviews better than it plays — admired more than it is enjoyed.

• “The darkly beautiful sci-fi film manages to feel bold and original while paying homage to countless great movies.”

  Richard Roeper, Chicago Sun-Times · 100

• “For Hollywood’s armies of unsung craftsfolk, Nope turns the blockbuster rules on their head: an expansive science-fiction thriller whose heroes rise up and claim their heroism from behind the scenes. For the rest of us, it’s an outrageously good time.”

  Robbie Collin, The Telegraph · 100

• “This is a movie that knows the power of images. It has learned, from the greats of the genre, that what we fear most is what can’t be seen, what’s merely implied.”

  K. Austin Collins, Rolling Stone · 100

• “An ambitious, provocative swing, Nope feels like that increasingly rare beast: an original blockbuster. Unspooling a horrific parody of Hollywood’s hubris, it’s a crowd-pleaser that wonders about the cost of pleasing a crowd.”

  Kambole Campbell, Empire · 100

• “Anchored by two superb lead performances from a strong and silent Kaluuya and vivaciously hilarious Palmer, Peele flexes his aptitude for creating tension to both horrific and comedic effect.”
