By Alistair Harkness (1,042) for Scotsman (1,471) on 09 Nov 2015

Review of Kill Your Friends (2015)

By Henry Fitzherbert (699) for Daily Express (UK) (2,141) on 09 Nov 2015

Review of Kill Your Friends (2015)

By Mark Kermode (1,002) for Observer (UK) (2,398) on 08 Nov 2015

Review of Kill Your Friends (2015)

By Donald Clarke (1,051) for Irish Times (1,391) on 06 Nov 2015

The rock bands, as is so often the case in movies, are no more convincing than the group that once won ironic favour in a Kit Kat commercial…

Review of Kill Your Friends (2015)

By Charlotte O'sullivan (637) for London Evening Standard (2,015) on 06 Nov 2015

Hoult (the film's executive producer) is either miscast, the victim of terrible direction or trying to convey, through a lacklustre performance,…

By Kevin Maher (647) for Times (UK) (2,458) on 05 Nov 2015

Review of Kill Your Friends (2015)

By David Jenkins (910) for Little White Lies (3,136) on 05 Nov 2015

Review of Kill Your Friends (2015)

By David Hughes (139) for Empire Magazine (3,326) on 05 Nov 2015

Nicholas Hoult does his best to bring Niven's weapons-grade scumbag to life, in a film hobbled by amateurish acting and absence of production value…

Review of Kill Your Friends (2015)

By Helen O'hara (407) for GQ Magazine [UK] (132) on 03 Nov 2015
