A truly singular cinematic experience which is better described than dissected. It’s trippy, colourful, disturbing, gory, referential and hilarious… but also weirdly poignant and transcendent.

A must-see film, especially for people who have a soft spot horror and experimental cinema, just be prepared for a little unevenness. Read more

Despite beautiful colors, a mind-blowing scenery and the visually stunning photography, it’s not the place any of us would like to end up in. Every single scene is pure masterpiece. Read more

While it's perhaps a bit too artistic and self-conscious to compete with the best examples of the sort of down and dirty genre cinema Cosmatos is aping, Mandy offers patient viewers two hours of darkly sensual delights, not the least of which is the late Jóhann Jóhannsson's ominous score. It's an experience as akin to soaking in a bath as to watching a movie, but with its extreme violence and dark world view, you may feel like... Read more

Even though it's all too gut-wrenching and sunless, kudos to a fast and furious Cage, who returns from the dead with an insatiable appetite for vindictiveness. Read more

Despite its obvious low-budget construction, Mandy is stylish and alarmingly original, while Cage doesn’t hold back the rage in his performance. Read more

It’s hardly worth sitting through the rest for the payoff. What this film greatly needs is an edit. Read more

The film is a basic revenge thriller at its heart but one that lacks a captivating story to tell so instead overcompensates with ludicrous content which comes across as nothing more than a desperate attempt to distract from the many shortcomings the film presents. Read more

Mandy draait om emotie, leven in een waas (van liefde, woede of drugs), en grenzen van normaal, abnormaal en bovennatuurlijk vervagen. Read more

Nicolas Cage is een ware Spirit of Vengeance in Mandy, een psychedelische wraakfilm, een audiovisueel pareltje én een cultklassieker in wording!

Plot speelt een onderschikte rol in Mandy. Toon en kleur doen er meer toe dan het verhaal. De film lijkt bedoeld om te ervaren als een muziekstuk. Read more

Cage houdt zich voor zijn doen in en speelt daarmee een erg goede rol. Een titel die in je hoofd zal blijen spoken. Read more

De emotionele band met Mandy wordt nooit gecreëerd en met een aantal kleine subverhaaltjes maakt de regisseur de film te warrig om deze ook goed te kunnen volgen.
