Poison Ratings & Reviews
LarsenOnFilm
Josh Larsen
...one of Anderson's most potently political films.
Decider
John Serba
[Poison] is unbearably suspenseful (it makes sense that it previously was adapted for Alfred Hitchcock Presents by the master himself).
Detroit News
Adam Graham
He's highlighting the fantasy of it all, openly staging some scenes as acts of pure imagination, the way they would be in the head of a reader curled up with one of Dahl's books. In so doing, Anderson becomes the tour guide through Dahl's world.
Slate
Sam Adams
It works the way a good short story does, outlining a situation or state of being and then leaving us to imagine the rest.
Polygon
Siddhant Adlakha
[Anderson] uses his signature stylizations to dig into both the layers of authorship featured in his recent films, as well as the meaning behind them, in a series that's as much an adaptation of a specific author as it is a tribute to his life and legacy.

Dahl's writing defies typical screenwriting approaches...
Asheville Movies
Edwin Arnaudin
Lacks the ambitious production design of its peers, yet compensates with phenomenal facial restraint from Cumberbatch.
The Saturday Evening Post
Bill Newcott
You can take your pick of these four Anderson/Dahl gems, but skipping any one of them would be like leaving one piece of your Wonka Bar untouched.
The New Yorker
Richard Brody
Lest viewers become even briefly comfortable with the enchantments of his staging and of his actors' performances, Anderson jolts them alert with ever more audacious contrivances.
n+1
A.S. Hamrah
Because of the sets, which were built on location, the film has an abstract quality. It draws on a rich history of midcentury drama and science, moves swiftly, nothing lingered on...
InSession Film
Zach Youngs
Be awed by the incredible camerawork of Poison. These four shorts are a welcome addition to the Anderson canon and an obvious labor of love by all involved.
