It's What's Inside Ratings & Reviews
- josephbr62February 3, 2026So much cringe crammed into an opening 10 minutes I just couldnt cope. I have only ever stopped watching 1 other film regardless of how bad it is, but this just became my second. As soon as that dude opened the door and complemented her smell as he spin-hugged her I just had to switch off - If he is trying to portray a broscalinity alpha douche, he is a master at his craft, but I just couldn't continue watching without throwing objects at my TV. 0/5 if I could. Just dont do it to yourself.
- Nicholas DeRoyJanuary 17, 2026A clever idea that doesn’t fully deliver. It’s What’s Inside has a fun, chaotic setup and some stylish moments, but the story gets messy fast. The twists start to blur together, and the characters never feel deep enough to care about. Interesting concept, uneven execution.
- AlphaMikaelJanuary 3, 2026Good movie, great plot. Would recommend if nothing else in the evening.
- rg9400November 1, 2024I went into It's What's Inside completely blind, and I really enjoyed the way the movie unfolds. Because of that, I will try to keep this review very high level to not spoil too much so that people can still enjoy the twists and turns. The whole movie is heavily stylized, with everything awash in neon colors, mainly blues and reds. The camera will zoom in and out of focus, emphatically announcing its presence. The editing is equally in your face, with frequent split screens and cuts that slide between different images. I found these stylistic flourishes to be enjoyable, though they are certainly over the top at times. Compounded with its zany concept, the direction makes the movie feel like it is bursting with ideas and energy. Also, the entire cast does an admirable job, always feeling believable as their characters even when the movie might be asking too much from them. I've been a fan of Alycia Debnam-Carey for a while, and it's great to see her in this as well. I did have a few criticisms though. The movie takes a while to get to the initial concept, and from that initial concept, it takes a bit to get to the main conflict. ]Once that main conflict arrives, it's really fun to watch it unfold -- I just wish the beginning was cut down. Also, the concept is ripe for interesting thematic, character-driven, and sociopolitical commentary. I don't think this movie fully achieves that though, instead using it for a very surface level exploration. It's hard to explain without spoilers, but it could have done so much more with the dynamics and backstories of its characters. However, it's still fairly entertaining despite that, and though it has missed potential here, it isn't wasted in my opinion. Overall, I recommend this movie if you're looking for a stylish comedy-thriller focused on younger characters with a fascinating concept.
- gradientorangeApril 14, 2025an absolute blast. one of my favorites from 2024. it was so fun pausing the movie to keep up with who was who. there was also some very clever editing that helped. overall, very satisfying story told in an extremely creative and engaging way
- shirazesatNovember 1, 2025Excellent dark comedy with twists galore. Genius movie!
- TheJiggyDCNovember 1, 2025Solid entertaining flick, with creative storytelling ideas!
- Monkey See! Monkey Review!!September 13, 2025It’s What’s Inside dives headfirst into the age-old question: What would you do if you could…? And more importantly—would you actually do it? The film doesn’t just ask these questions; it dares you to answer them. The short answer? Yes. And yes again. TLDR -> It’s What’s Inside — A Twisty, Thought-Provoking Thriller. GREAT WATCH!!! This is one of those movies that thrives on mystery and moral ambiguity, keeping you hooked as the layers unravel. If you’re a fan of ensemble-driven thrillers like Knives Out, Bodies Bodies Bodies, or Companion, this one will feel right at home. It blends psychological tension with dark humor and just enough chaos to keep things unpredictable. Like many Netflix originals, it’s an easy watch—accessible, entertaining, and perfect for a night when you want something that’s clever without being overly complicated. It may not reinvent the genre, but it plays its cards well enough to keep you guessing and engaged.
- VarunNovember 1, 2024A highly entertaining flick with really unique visualisations and cool camera work. The cast did a superb job as each actor had to portray multiple roles and they totally nailed it. The pacing was really good. The main couple’s drama unfolded with exciting emotionally fuelled moments. At no point was I lost, the film does a great job of keeping the audience informed without being too expository. The ending plot twist was great, personally didn’t see that coming. My only gripe with the film is the cliche characters but as they try out different roles, we get to see different shades of their personality and nuances pop up. All their fates ended up in the perfect place by the end. This is definitely a solid watch for a Halloween movie night with friends.
- neuroparadoxJuly 30, 2025"There's something..... different..." I knew nothing about this but loved it all, it feels like an actual play... so if it is, fuck you I didn't know 🖕 Very creative use of colour, and splitscreens... and, honestly, a bunch of stuff....I guess just watch it, it's a hard recommend.
- Devon GeathersJuly 17, 2025I completely misjudged this movie and I’m so glad I watched it because this was fun. There’s a lot to keep track of, but they do help you along the way. Some of the plot twists really got me in a good way. I’ll definitely be watching this again!

- Kevin WardJuly 1, 2025Bodies Bodies Bodies Swap I had heard some buzz about this after Sundance but lost track of its distribution. So, a surprise yet unceremonious release on Netflix was disappointing because it would have been a lot of fun to see with a crowd. This body swap whodunnit has excellent energy, and even though it’s a little tricky to track each character in real-time (somewhat complicated by the fact that I wasn’t familiar with almost any of the actors going into this), it’s edited in such a way that makes all of the narrative twists and reveals completely convincing. The brilliance in the editing comes in the form of using color filters to depict each character’s true identity—inspired and creative filmmaking. I can see revisiting this, and it’s worth checking out if you haven’t yet.
- senitsuMay 10, 2025As unbelievable as the plot is it’s a fun watch for a Saturday night
- Rob Logan | The Geek GenerationFebruary 22, 2025Absolutely love the premise, even if I don't find it believable that everyone would opt in so easily. Great sense of tension and lots of second guessing throughout. My biggest complaint is that the characters aren't all established as well as they should have been before all the shenanigans start, which makes things even harder to follow as the movie plays out.
