Assassination Nation Ratings & Reviews
Ryezoo
February 14, 2025
While it may be pretty to look at, this film is bobo. But for real, the cinematography is gorgeous. Especially a home invasion scene. The first hour youth is a tough boring slog to get through. The story is weak and just didn’t get invested. The back 40 mins are dumb fun but that doesn’t save this from being a bad movie.
RogerEbert.com
Tomris Laffly
Levinson's film vaguely shelters a compelling story about today's unforgiving online mob mentality beneath its convoluted layers.
Rolling Stone
David Fear
It's an angry movie for angry times, which doesn't necessarily make it a clever or coherent commentary on how American hypocrisy leads to American carnage.
Detroit News
Tom Long
From privacy and fame to sex, hacking scandals and Instagram, "Assassination Nation" takes on a laundry list of hot topics and rolls its eyes at all of them.

Robert Daniels
This attack on misogyny, mob rule, hypocrisy, and transphobia is a film that effectively taps the nerve of an angry, yet evolving country.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
It should be noted that none of the points being made here are in anyway subtle. They're also blatantly obvious. But that doesn't make what Levinson is saying any less vital or important.
Chicago Reader
Cody Corrall
Assassination Nation is a lesson in taking back agency in a world that constantly tries to strip young women of it. But it also forces the audience to wake up and hold up a mirror to the hypocrisy in our own values.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Bilge Ebiri
Watching Assassination Nation's arch portrait of today's currents and countercurrents, one senses just how utterly irreconcilable our many differences are.
Polygon
Candice Frederick
Assassination Nation is a blistering yet effective exaggeration of our real-life dystopia.
TheWrap
Alonso Duralde
Audiences may nonetheless forgive the film's shortcomings because of its sheer verve and chutzpah.
Los Angeles Times
Katie Walsh
Dude really tried to mansplain the virgin/whore paradigm in the midst of this exploitative claptrap.
Shadow and Act
Aramide Tinubu
An ambitious but somewhat chaotic film, Levinson invites his audience into Salem-an American suburb where real horrors lie in everyone's cell phone histories, downloads, and clouds.
New York Times
Aisha Harris
Even if Lily and her friends feel more like social justice avatars than fully realized characters, by the end of the film, it's hard not to root for them.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
It doesn't all work-a film that takes such a buckshot approach to satire never can be-but there's enough filmmaking verve on display here to make me like it.
Austin Chronicle
Richard Whittaker
Successfully taking on all these issues as parts of the same hideous whole, Assassination Nation works best when it is broad and sharp, but is at its weakest when it is too on the nose.
San Francisco Chronicle
David Lewis
"Assassination Nation" won't get any points for narrative cohesion or character development, but it's a timely, visually arresting statement about how pandemonium in this country threatens to become the new norm.
Film Journal International
Nick Schager
This wannabe-satire about high-school girls coping with a hometown devolving into hacker-created chaos is possibly the year's most obnoxious release.
National Newspaper Publishers Association
Dwight Brown
Sam Levinson has a good eye for adolescent rebellion, and combined with the demented violence, this study of New Age depravity could become a classic midnight movie.
IndieWire
Eric Kohn
It's a messy conclusion, but one of the most timely in current cinema.
AV Club
Mike D'Angelo
Unlike the best examples of either horror or satire, it ultimately comforts and confirms rather than challenges.
