Mandy Ratings & Reviews
- VarunOctober 19, 2024My first intro to the director Panos Cosmatos was The Viewing episode from the Cabinet of Curiosities tv series, and even though it had an okay story, the vibe was just immaculate. I feel similarly about this film. The plot and dialogues are trash and the action is stupid but it is so audiovisually entrancing. The lighting, filters, visual trickery, shot composition and even animation is so trippy and pretty. The synth music is mesmerising. Also it was fun to watch Nicholas Cage raging with wild cocaine energy. I’m a sucker for psychedelic and visually insane imagery so I’m gonna keep looking forward to Panos’ future projects, I just hope he actually writes or adapts a good story.
- raresenseFebruary 14, 2026I love Cage’s crazy movies! This character is awesome
- Nicholas FlorioJanuary 14, 2026This movie was out there, but in a very interesting way. The time frame and the surreal colors setting was cool. Nicholas Cage's most controlled performance and his bathroom breakdown is spectacular. The fever-dream revenge plot blew me away. Under it, there are real biblical Old Testament vengeance narratives at play. This is what happens when love is destroyed and only wrath remains? It is completely unique film.
- makdelartNovember 6, 2025Cinema of revenge – there are many such films, but there is no other version as infernal, psychedelic, surreal and yet tangible as Cosmatos's.
- jamessa84July 6, 2025This was a GR8 movie. Quite possibly one of Nicholas Cages best rolls ever. This one gets 5 thumbs up. 👍👍👍👍👍
- StairwaytothestarsAugust 2, 2025Stylish, surreal, psychedelic, and a psychological drama with some violence, and it is not for everyone.The instrumental song named Mandy Love Theme by Johann Johannsson is beautiful! For MANDY beauty is a chainsaw away, and the ending is out of this world!
- Kyle HlubekJuly 12, 2025It's a slow burn, and if you're not into slow horror movies that unfold, it won't be for you. I loved it!
- thereelvoiceFebruary 27, 2025Mandy is easily one of the most under appreciated revenge films out there. The visuals and cinematography set the tone as Nicolas Cage brings a performance that fits into a sudden explosion of nonstop gore and action. Even with the extreme violence, Mandy maintains its initial visual brilliance and will have you rooting for the villains to get what’s coming to them. Mandy is a banger!
- Karen SemachkoApril 16, 2025You have to be high on LSD to appreciate this movie
- Marshall EvettsFebruary 25, 2025This Is a hot load directly to your main vein. This is a work of art. Only for the headstrong. Top of mind when I think of perfect movies.
