  Review by Evan ★★★½ 5

  Easily Ryan Reynolds best performance that I've seen. This film is very well made. It's considered a dark comedy, but I didn't find it all that funny. There were parts I laughed at, but I was freaked out more often than not. Which isn't a bad thing because the movie was effective. It gets pretty hardcore at points. Nonetheless, this is a solid little flick that I recommend checking out. It's worth watching for Ryan Reynolds performance alone. It appears he's finally tried something new and did a very good job at it. I would like to see Reynolds do similar roles in the future.

  Mr. Whiskers the cat slayed me!

  An odd but endearing film about a schizophrenic Jerry Hickfang (Ryan Reynolds) whose insightful portrayal of the effects isolation and loneliness play in the lives of the most social creatures on the planet (Humans) and what lengths we will go to.. to avoid it!

  I loved Ryan Reynolds one man show in the film "Buried".. this role however shows just how versatile of an actor he truly is! This newfound vulnerability looks exceedingly good on Mr. Reynolds! As does his bold new choices in film roles!

  In my opinion the cat and dog were severely underused! And the grand finale / anti climatic ending didn't do justice to the creative spirit of the film!

  This is the type of film that if you're on board with it it'll work a treat for you. If you're not it'll probably annoy the crap out of you. I'm just glad I had no problem whatsoever with this darkly comical bit of schizophrenia.

  The premise, walking around in a guy's head who hears voices, works really well. Satrapi makes some wonderful choices in how she slowly allows the viewer a peek beyond the protagonist's insanity. There's just something off about everything, something I found highly enjoyable.

  Now here's a sentence I don't get to write very often: Ryan Reynolds was outstanding. It's not that I don't like him as an actor, he just rarely excels. Here he is…

  Review by Wesley R. Ball ★★★★

  Wow, Ryan Reynolds was actually in something I liked overall! His voice acting in the film was spot on as well.

  Brilliant, darkly comic, and euphoric all at the same time, "The Voices" executes it's plot in a horror-comedy fashion much better than any other slasher film I've seen. This one was a ton of fun to watch.

  “Do you ever hear voices?”

  The Voices is a bizarre dark comedy starring Ryan Reynolds in one of his best performances to date. It is directed by Marjane Satrapi who’s better known for her Iranian Oscar nominated animated film Persepolis. The Voices takes a common element from animated films and applies it in a dark way here in this live action movie. We can all recall the classic angel and devil scenes in the Tom and Jerry cartoons where the voices tell the character what to do. Satrapi takes that familiar premise and applies it extremely well here as Reynolds’s character speaks to his pets. His dog, Bosco representing the angel, while his cat, Mr. Whiskers represents the devil. They…

  48/100

  It's depressing just how well Ryan Reynolds nails this performance because no matter his dedication to the director's vision, it doesn't lead anywhere noteworthy or interesting.
