    Best way to describe this movie is precise. So much of it is hidden in micro expressions and small interactions between characters.

    This is no Mr & Mrs Smith this is an adult spy thriller, it's sexy, it's smart, it's efficient and a fascinating watch.


    Could easily watch this again and again.

    I would have rated this higher if it didn't drop the ball in the third act where it became predictable and boring.

    The multiple's plot was way more interesting than the creatures plot. Also happened to Kai? All that build up and then she disappears for the majority of act 3 ?

    Robert Pattinson however was incredible in this, really enjoyed his performances.

    Easy to see why Kieran Culkin is getting Oscar buzz from this.

    Amazing portrayal of someone feeling a sense of dislocation and isolation despite being able to connect and empathize with people in a way others can't. A performance only enhanced by Jesse Eisenberg who I feel will be overlooked.

    Lots of great jokes balanced perfectly with emotional moments, best 90 minutes you'll spend in a cinema this year
