- Andrea Chase @ KillerMovieReviews.com
- Excerpt: It is at once avant-garde and primal, hilarious and distressing, all the while being more real than real.
- Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: stuffed with so many ideas it is one of the auteur’s most plot heavy movies, some strands introduced to be left hanging. It will be open to various interpretations …Stewart delivers the film’s slyest performance
- Mark Leeper @ Mark Leeper’s Reviews
- Excerpt: Cronenberg has returned to his favorite science fiction trope–body horror–but this one gets more into the philosophy of body modification.
- Mike McGranaghan @ The Aisle Seat
- Excerpt: A complex, disturbing work that left me spellbound.
- Jared Mobarak @ JaredMobarak.com
- Excerpt: The result is messy and circuitous, but it’s also provocative and funny in strange and alluring ways like only [Cronenberg] can achieve.
- Matt Oakes @ Silver Screen Riot
- Excerpt: The naturally unnatural world comes to a head in surreal, erotic, satirical fashion in a way only David Cronenberg could cook up. The world-building of Crimes of the Future impresses more than some of the plot movements but a game Viggo Mortensen helps keep this ethereal body horror think-piece captivating from gory start to evocative finish.
- Joao Pinto @ Portal Cinema [Portuguese]
- Christopher Reed @ Hammer to Nail
- Excerpt: But at its most compelling, Crimes of the Future asks important existential questions about the nature of homo sapiens and what we hope to become, as well as whether the devices we invent will save or kill us.
- Gregory J. Smalley @ 366 Weird Movies
- Excerpt: Although the story lacks the narrative drive of Cronenberg’s earlier features—rather than climaxing in the uncovering of a grand conspiracy, the ending here fades out—the atmosphere of evil, corruption, mutation and decay is as strong as ever.
- Josh Thayer (formerly Taylor) @ The Forgetful Film Critic
- Excerpt: Crimes of the Future is a fantasy that imagines the future of humanity. None of us should be excited for that future to arrive.
