The Man from Earth Ratings & Reviews
- adrian.76814 dgn geledenBriliant script! Great actors.
- Vivek6 dgn geledenWhat a concept!
- Daniel Gustavsson12 oktober 2024Intriguing movie for sure. It's just some people in a house for the whole duration but it works very well. The concept of this is very fascinating, however it lacks a little bit in the technical department. The acting can be rough. It kind of leaves you wondering and thinking about possibilities at the end. The funny thing is that there exist a sequel to this, which has the funniest explanation to all this and completely destroys this movie. If you treasure this movie then I recommend you skip the sequel.
- Iris1 maart 2026Fucking kill me— i swear to god jerome. When I find you in hell i will actually legit ughhh— my dumb ass thought, oh it seems like a cute movie! Lemme watch it at 1 a.m. little did I know, I'm about to have a midlife crisis, and fun thing about that? I'm fucking 14— honestly should've just stuck to cartoons atp. now I'm spiralling because I think that sandy is also an immortal, because of welp everything she does in the movie, is John really lying or is he just trying to protect everyone's feelings, why tf did sandy kiss dan. and help me god I need some of that alcohol too. 5/5, destroyed me emotionally, mentally and would've physically too if our boi jerome was still alive because oh I'm so fucking convinced he is the man he portrays john to be. I mean come on man. Someone get me chocolate milk and cookies.
- iye7624 februari 2026Low budget, with a cast of just 11, three of whom are walk-ons, one of the others is just padding, and some of the acting is clunky. But all the same a good watch, and a very, very clever script.
- Mark Garcia6 maart 2025I wanted to be part of the group
- Mike S24 april 2025There wasn't a moment in the whole movie where my mind was fixated on what each character was saying... Such a thought-provoking movie. Loved it.
- raviagarwal65222 augustus 2025Absolutely fantastic man what a storytelling for a sci-fi movie I mean let's be real there was nothing sci-fi about it was like reading a book an audio book i could literally imagine some of the stuff he said and I think that's what the movie wanted for us. It took us through highs and lows and then ended on a high. Amazing 10/10 underrated gem in my opinion.
- timparsifar11 mei 2025One of the greatest. Like reading a book, where most of the events plays out in your mind instead of crappy CGI! Rewatched it, still as good as i remember!
- legit_movies20 februari 2026This is one of my favourite movies. Full stop. It's so simple. Man rolls up on farewell party, spills his guts and blows minds. But the sting in the tail... that haunts me, maybe it will haunt you? This is a campfire movie, grab some friends, grab some beers and sit for 90m to play what-if... if you like people being smart at each other, here you go. If you like thinking "oh shit, really?" here you go. This one leaves me grinning and hopeful about the human condition.
- Elliot0475 februari 2026Totally mind blowing, an exceptional script, entire film is finished in just a room.
- Magnus Carlbaum21 maart 2025Captivating story told on a shoestring budget in a one shot location. Everything, and I do mean EVERYTHING rests upon the script. And it holds up.
- Sebastian Juarez27 januari 2026Simple, catchy. No flashlights, lasers, or makeup, just a great story.
- niall11121 januari 2026Far better than I expected, excellent story, worth a watch!
- saksham20417 januari 2026extremely good!
- Johan Potgieter1 januari 2026It was an interesting story. The only issue I have with the story is the importance this one person played in the history of humanity, Even if you lived thousands of years the chance of you knowing important people or being important people in history is exceedingly small. Still an interesting thought experiment.
