Harockerce What a beautiful movie!

ThrillMessage There are better movies of two hours length. I loved the actress'performance.

Hadrina The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Chantel Contreras It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

jacobcbosch This is a movie that took me completely by surprise. It looked kinda silly and dumb but what the heck it had Ryan Reynolds in it so I gave it a watch on Netflix and I was completely blown away. Not only does Reynolds put on an amazing and at times heartbreaking performance, but he's also frickin hilarious. Most dark comedies only get one of the parts right, dark or comedy. But "The Voices" felt that it had managed to blend the two perfectly. And it knew when it was appropriate to be funny and when it needed to take itself seriously. The dialogue is both hilariously and realisitically awkward and as someone who has mental health issues (although not to the extent of Reynolds' character) I can honestly say that this movie represented the struggles of therapy, taking your medicine, and balancing the voices in your head perfectly. I will say that this movie is not for everyone, you're either going to go "meh" or absolutely love it.

kaaber-2 Egoyan's "The Captive" together with "The Voices" from that same year, 2014, are very fine examples of Reynold's less-is-more style of acting. While in "Captive" he seems to be doing almost nothing and is disguised behind a full beard, Reynolds reverts to his boy-next-door appearance in "The Voices", and switches effortlessly from comedy into tragedy, or rather: he underplays comedy and turns it into tragedy - a very, very hard thing to do, and he comes through with flying colours. One scene deserves a special mention. His reaction to the two-minute psycho-analysis delivered by his therapist who is talking for dear life while tied up on the hood of his car; serial killer Jerry's cathartic moment. It is absolutely priceless. Of course, Reynolds is greatly assisted by a great script and a wonderful cast. Even the animals are good. The film as such is a gem, and the Bollywood-like ending is reminiscent of Dennis Potter's very sombre depression-era jukebox musical "Pennies from Heaven".

uweumberath Ryan Reynolds is best known for playing the pretty boy in various Rom-Com-Movies. The good looking guy who falls in love with a good looking girl after going through a lot of trouble. Sometimes funny, sometimes romantic. But this movie gave him the chance to show a wider range of acting. Playing a psychopath is probably the most challenging role for an actor. But Reynolds did a great job in this movie playing a very strange character, that gets all your sympathy although doing terrible things. I've never felt more sympathy for a psychopath than in this movie. And his female victims (Gemma Arterton and Anna Kendick) make it even better. Very strange movie, but I love it!

tclementdev This movie is everything I like about a movie: it's smart, funny, dark, deep, emotional, everything mixed up perfectly. It's also very nice visually. Ryan Reynolds is great, I can't think of anyone who would have done a better job. You must watch this, it's really good.
