Review of Destroyer (2018)

By Tomas Trussow (247) for Film Inquiry (1,269) on 20 Sep 2018

Review of Destroyer (2018)

By Dwight Brown (181) for National Newspaper Publishers Association (180) on 17 Sep 2018

Review of Destroyer (2018)

By Jordan Ruimy (242) for World of Reel (117) on 16 Sep 2018

Review of Destroyer (2018)

By Jason Bailey (832) for Flavorwire (598) on 13 Sep 2018

Kusama moves her star, and her camera, through these silky L.A. nightscapes in a style reminiscent of Michael Mann…

Review of Destroyer (2018)

By David Crow (142) for Den of Geek (424) on 11 Sep 2018

Kidman is perfect for noir, breaking the generic binary prism women are usually placed in while standing as her own captivating creation-even…

Review of Destroyer (2018)

By Rubin Safaya (167) for Cinemalogue (704) on 11 Sep 2018
