Waiting for watching

Insanely disturbing and wtf movie visually and auditorily, revolting especially near the end I couldn't finish watching because I can't handle gross stuff. But if you like this kind of thing, it was well done.

Thought provoking premise but missed the mark. Enjoyable until the last 15 minutes or so; the film suffers from uneven pacing. The songs are bangers, tho.

The film has a craftsmanship that I feel is a level above 3 stars, but the movie has pacing issues, and is somewhat choppy, so I think it being deemed as a "good watch" is fine enough. Ayo gets to flex herself as a lead, and her beauty on top of that also. Malkovich is classic Malkovich, just eating up the screen time. Good cast, contained thriller. We get these quite often these days, but give me 10 more of these than a formulaic superhero movie any day. It has an artistic vision, as per A24, and I enjoy the character focused storyline. Just not a very remarkable flick. I would definitely watch it, though, if you haven't. And I'll definitely re-watch it in the future. A good time. Thank you.

Well shot movie , slow start , good anticipation build up

I love opus❤️I can’t wait to see if they have opus 2 looks like it

Opus? More like NOPUS!! That’s the only fitting way to begin a review of this disjointed, fever-dream of a film that somehow manages to say everything and absolutely nothing at the same time. Opus plays like the chaotic, less-charismatic cousin of Blink Twice—and while it clearly aspires to be high art wrapped in metaphor and mystery, it ends up feeling like a very expensive inside joke no one bothered to let the audience in on. There are moments that flirt with brilliance—striking visuals, an eerie score, and a few performances that do their best to ground the madness. But none of it sticks. Instead, you’re dragged through a hazy, nonsensical spiral of scenes that seem stitched together with vibes and vibes only. By the time the credits roll, you're left asking not “What did it all mean?”—but “Why did I sit through that?” Sometimes a film is intentionally cryptic because there’s something deeper to uncover. Opus is cryptic because it’s hollow. A chaotic symphony with no rhythm, no melody, and no replay value.

Opus starts strong with an intriguing premise and solid build-up that promises something deeper. Visually and atmospherically, it sets the stage well, drawing viewers in with a sense of mystery and potential. However, when the climax arrives, it falls disappointingly flat. The tension fizzles instead of exploding, leaving the resolution feeling rushed and unsatisfying. More critically, the characters feel hollow—there’s little development or emotional depth, making it hard to care about their journey or outcomes. For all its aesthetic strength, Opus ultimately lacks the heart and payoff it sets out to deliver.

Not really sure what this is. Is it like a mockumentary, it made me laugh at points but feel it's trying to take itself so seriously. Malkovich is obv having fun but the concept is a little dated, and Lewis playing a sex symbol (sorry to get personal). It's like a dads concept of what people think is cool. Very weird, not boring, bit confused. Edebiri looks confused for much of the time.

Malkovich is in a different (and better) movie than everyone else. Opus thinks it’s deep but it’s just loud, weird, and hollow. A cult thriller that mistakes confusion for meaning.

'Opus' is a horror dud that simply recycles everything A24 has produced before, just more underwhelmingly.

Not scary, literally my life in a movie,I’m a cult leader/sex icon/sex slave

Nothing too shocking in this movie, but it was still very entertaining thanks to the cast eerie ambience.

There’s been few movies that captivate me and make me ponder about it later; this is one of them. It has very realistic horror and by that I mean that we’ve seen similar events happen in real life, for example Jim Jones. The main characters actions have deep repercussions that we feel at the end of the movie, making you wonder the lasting effects. Moretti was intriguing. Overall, amazing movie.

A completely and totally pseudo intelligent, pretentious to the point you can hear the heavy sniffs of it enjoying its own fart, colossal waste of time. If you tell me you enjoy this, we cannot be friends and don't talk to me again. Worst of 2025 so far.

Horrible And that’s all I can say

Mashup between "The Menu" and "Midsommar", but very predictable and confusing at the same time. A typical A24 production, pretending to be smart, but quite forgettable at the end.

*Opus* hits that sweet spot between eerie and intriguing. Ayo Edebiri is reliably solid, but it’s John Malkovich as the unnervingly charismatic cult leader that steals every scene—he’s absolutely magnetic. The film spins a mystery around a washed-up musician turned messiah, layered with clever social commentary and legit creepy vibes. While the premise feels familiar, it’s executed with style and just enough weird to keep things fresh. I was hooked the whole time, even if it didn’t blow my mind. It’s not reinventing the genre, but it’s a damn good watch. Solid 3.5 stars. Weird in the best way.

I have a like dislike relationship with this movie. It's reasonably well made but if it were a drink it'd be a flat coke.

John Malkovich is the only good thing about. On the other hand, it's absolutely painful watching Ayo trying. Overall, god awful movie.
