Two Animals, a Severed Head, and a Guy
The Voices Wow, I did not see that one coming. A crazy cross between ‘Doctor Doolittle’, ‘Sightseers’ & ‘Seven Psychopaths’. It was an epic acting from Ryan Reynolds, up there with his ‘Buried’ performance, it’s all about him! It’s great job of a guy trying to not follow in his parents footsteps. Genre : Comedy, horror 5/5 : It’s a bizarre watch & you...

pressThe pic's tone is all over the place, from the bright red razor slash that underscores its opening titles to the "Amelie"-esque flights of fancy along the way.
Total Film
pressAt least Reynolds looks like a man finding his way to take risks once more.
The New York Times
pressGrisly but not especially suspenseful, tongue-in-cheek without any real wit, "The Voices" aims to hit the intersection of horror and comedy but tumbles into an uncanny valley of tedious creepiness.
The Guardian
pressThe bolts are loose, the belts won't fasten and Satrapi's disreputable little creepshow finally doesn't amount to a hill of beans. Maybe that's fine.
Hollywood Reporter
pressA wild, occasionally hilarious genre crossbreed that features a terrific performance from Ryan Reynolds.
Empire Magazine
pressFull-force performance form Ryan Reynolds but not as funny as it hopes it is.
