One of the wildest films you will ever see!

No one who watches Swiss Army Man will be able to deny the imagination and idiosyncrasy of what theyve seen.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Apr 11, 2022
Without question one of the most unusual films of the year, Swiss Army Man shows Radcliffe can play a man who died as well as the Boy Who Lived.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 18, 2022
Alas, Swiss Army Man isn't the cinematic savior we required.
| Original Score: 1/4 | Aug 18, 2021
Swiss Army Man wears its bizarreness as a badge of honor, and I can't help but commend it for that.
| Original Score: 2. 5 / 5 | Jun 25, 2021
This story of a hopeless man and his dead buddy is a tale of friendship and what it means to be alive, really and truly alive.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Feb 3, 2021
All of this high-concept absurdism in a semi-magical forest ends up being a surprisingly effective way to examine modern life from a clear distance.

A bizarre buddy comedy hybrid of Tom Hanks' Castaway and the Ryan Gosling-led Lars and the Real Girl, Swiss Army Man is provocative and yet endearingly absurd.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Aug 26, 2020
Swiss Army Man shows that a person's strengths and weaknesses are inextricable.
| Original Score: B | Jun 30, 2020
The most original film I've seen in years... sweet, inventive, funny, and full of thought provoking metaphors about life. [Full review in Spanish]

Radcliffe has to sell all of this through stiff lips and a glassy stare. It's a performance of astonishing subtlety, and Radcliffe is able to shift emotions believably and lightning fast.

Swiss Army Man is not quite an allegory, but it's at least a rich, thoughtful film that shows what comedy can be capable of.
| Jan 14, 2020
Overall, Swiss Army Man is different in the best way - great performances, beautifully shot and is unlike anything that has come before.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Nov 13, 2019
Swiss Army Man is a strange and bizarre portrait of loss.
| Aug 3, 2019
Ultimately, somewhere between the profound and profane, Daniels has made what is inarguably one of the most original films of the year, an accomplishment unto itself.
| Original Score: A- | Jul 9, 2019
Those who embrace the surreal and the absurd in this bonkers debut feature from the Daniels (Daniel Kwan and Scheinert) will find a film full of soulful surprises.
| Apr 20, 2019
The whimsical visuals and deep philosophical reflection may be too much for some viewers, but those who are open to new storytelling concepts will find themselves completely lost in this alive and moving tale.
| Original Score: B | Mar 30, 2019
Radcliffe deserves credit for his performance but it's not for me.
| Original Score: C | Mar 13, 2019
This film isn't about a farting corpse, it is about questioning what's normal and being bold. When you have this in mind, you begin to see the complexity and thoughtfulness which makes Swiss Army Man great.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 13, 2019
