Kill Your Friends Reviews
Detroit News
Adam Graham
"Kill Your Friends" goes to some ugly places, but it keeps a sturdy sense of rhythm.
RogerEbert.com
Christy Lemire
Everyone is horrible all the time-so when they do horrible things to each other, the result is a chuckle rather than a vicious bite. The music business is cutthroat, we get it.
New York Post
Kyle Smith
Though the script is full of arch, darkly funny observations, the movie gets stuck on the same clanging chord of all-hating cynicism.
Seattle Times
Soren Andersen
A more disagreeable collection of cynical, backstabbing, self-aggrandizing, shallow, vicious and vile specimens of humanity gathered together in a single motion picture would be difficult to conceive of.
Slant Magazine
Christopher Gray
The film's failed satire can't help but bolster Steven's antihero charisma.
Film Journal International
Nick Schager
Mistakenly thinks a lot of profanity, ugliness and bloodshed [...] are, in and of themselves, enough to sustain a satire about showbiz ruthlessness.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
Watching "Kill Your Friends" unfold is not dissimilar to being at a party where someone's clever one-liner lulls you into a conversation that reveals a bitterly immature, dismissively one-note lout, after which you're trapped.
New York Times
Andy Webster
Anchoring the pungent 1990s ambience is Mr. Hoult, easily oozing cool charisma.
Village Voice
Michael Nordine
Turning the sociopathic cynicism up to eleven tends to be ineffective unless wit and insight are included in the mix.
Variety
Andrew Barker
Nicholas Hoult embodies the psychosis of the 1990s British music industry in this initially sharp, increasingly tiresome and violent satire.
We Got This Covered
Matt Donato
Kill Your Friends is a bleak, narcissistic thriller about slicing your way to the top, but its relentless mean-streak comes across a bit too brash for comfort, or enjoyment.
IGN Movies
Chris Tilly
Kill Your Friends starts out an enjoyably nasty satire of the music industry, but loses focus when a thriller element is thrown into the mix.
JoBlo's Movie Network
Chris Bumbray
Derivative of American Psycho but entertaining.
Blu-ray.com
Brian Orndorf
At least Hoult is trying to do something different, but his effort can't prop up the feature, which slowly loses focus and timing, ending up an uninspired mess.
Contactmusic.com
Rich Cline
First-time director Owen Harris boldly attempts a comedy even blacker than American Psycho or Filth with this 1990s Britpop satire, but he never quite gets the tone right.
WOW247
Matthew Turner
This is blackly comic fun, anchored by a nicely controlled performance from Nicholas Hoult, though it's ultimately undone by the very lack of heart it supposedly celebrates.
Consequence
Sarah Kurchak
Kill Your Friends is effective and enjoyable in the way that dusty music compilations are.
Examiner.com
Travis Hopson
Being mean and nasty is all the film has going for it, and "Kill Your Friends" keeps skipping back to that like a warped LP.
Metro
Matt Prigge
Even a film that at one point uses 'Karma Police' both earnestly and sarcastically can't fully atone for times that simply scream generic nihilism.
The Playlist
Sam Fragoso
"The film doesn't trust its audience enough to keep up with the joke. As a result, the movie toggles back and forth between a pulpy crime drama and a zany satire. "
