If I Had Legs I'd Kick You Ratings & Reviews
- Dan Hernandez2d agoRose Byrne's performance was 10/10. .....& I don't want kids.
- Kevin Ward3d agoOne of the most tense and unnerving watches I’ve ever experienced. Byrne is captivating throughout. Hard to explain why, but there was something so unsettling about never getting to see the child’s face for most of the film. Somehow it just really heightened the tension. I think it also provides a kind of natural catharsis for the ending. Something about finally seeing her face allows you space to breathe again.
- EmperorWatcher4d agoNOPE.. So many think it’s brilliant, so I had to look. My viewing casts great doubt on those folk’s discernment. I tried for over 30 minutes, and finally had to bail. Searched out public opinions and discovered I am far from being alone in finding the film a waste of time. Thankfully I only lost 30 minutes or so. Whatshername may well be a brilliant actor. I suggest she ply her trade elsewhere.
- DavidBunnyDad5d agoRose Byrne might be our most underrated actress, but other than her fine work and good turns from the cast overall (especially A$AP Rocky and Mary Bronstein) , this is an unrelenting downer with not much of a point to it. I'd say put your time to better use.
- adam3199November 26, 2025As a single dad wirh 100% care of a little k8d, i get this totally.
- RickNovember 3, 2025Anxiety: The Movie. Great performances, but don’t go if you’re having a good day, this will ruin it.
- Ommar7d agoIf your life is a shit show don't watch 😭
- Oʂɯαʅԃσ RσყҽƚƚNovember 18, 2025If I Had Legs I'd Kick You is a film that's difficult to describe in a way that would immediately convince someone to see it. I decided to watch it after hearing some buzz from festivals, but I went in not really knowing what to expect. I'm very glad I did, because what I found was a deeply unique film that experiments with storytelling techniques in bold and fascinating ways. I'll try to be as clear as possible about the story without revealing too much.
- TeoDaTank6d agoLet me save you some time - White Wine Mom makes every mistake a parent can, with a huge addict personality. Her only saving grace from being the "CPS Worthy" parent is that she also works. Every 10-15 minutes or so you're reminded there is a husband by a very forced phone-call with an "Always Absent Father" that came right from a Lifetime movie. The rest of the time is filled with a drunken woman eating, very awkwardly and forced, on camera, drunken screaming, or the child (or another baby) screaming at max volume. This feels like it was written for people who feel like their life is in a whirlpool of "bad luck", which is ironic since the entire principal of the movie is just that this one person keeps making bad decisions over and over, and in reality has a reasonably easy life. How it is so highly rated is beyond me.
- michael.r10November 23, 2025Gripping and unsettling film of a woman on the verge.
- David Daniel6d agoExhausting as it is brilliant
- DJMOKNovember 19, 2025NAH HARD PASS!!! very boring and confusing. It takes too long to explain the plot and is filled with nothing but boring, pointless dialogue. It's not even funny
- renderartistNovember 26, 2025Utter nonsense. 😂
- Mr. D7d agoWent in blind. The start had me wanting more with well done, emotionally packed performances but the movie drags and doesn't close the deal.
- Ayan QureNovember 25, 2025Filled with too much anxiety and depression
