(Peele) lets his metaphorical aspirations get ahead of the nuts and bolts of clear, cogent storytelling...
Full reviewEven a mediocre Jordan Peele film is better than the strongest film of an ordinary director. Nope is that mediocre film.
Full reviewNope, enjoyable as a spectacle but conceptually barely thought through, is all over the place.
Full reviewNope may not be Jordan Peele's best movie to date, but it is his most enjoyable.
Full review(Nope) confirms the mojo of the Jordan Peele brand. But it also confirms that making movies with too much chaos and sprawl is threatening to become part of that brand.
Full reviewThe film’s fantastical meta-commentaries don’t completely cohere but have a winning go-for-it audaciousness.
Full reviewPeele’s characters keep watching the skies even at their peril, unable to tear their eyes away. You’ll know the feeling.
Full reviewAn ambitious, provocative swing, Nope feels like that increasingly rare beast: an original blockbuster.
Full reviewEntertaining, smart, artful summer fare with its heart planted firmly in the 1980s heyday of blockbuster films.
Full reviewNope is coming to cinemas in New Zealand on 11 August 2022.
