Drew Gillis AV Club A Different Man is at home in an emerging trend of dark, surrealist works. Rated: A Apr 8, 2024 Full Review Kristen Lopez TheWrap “A Different Man” is a fascinating exploration of humanity with Sebastian Stan and Adam Pearson being a team I want to see reunite in other works. Feb 27, 2024 Full Review Marshall Shaffer Slant Magazine The film’s overarching dramatic irony leaves one to ponder the deliberately discomfiting question of whether it’s possible to extricate the experience of disability from the way spectators define its essence. Rated: 3.5/4 Feb 20, 2024 Full Review Connor Lightbody Movies We Texted About the script crackles when it’s not purporting to be intelligent [and] for a film that challenges societal ideas of beauty and champions our inner selves over aesthetics, doing this through cynically bleak methods feels counter-intuitive to the moral Rated: 3.5/5 Jul 4, 2024 Full Review Brandon Lewis Geek Vibes Nation A Different Man is an ambitious, thought-provoking film about how society treats disabled people, even under the cover of modern enlightenment. Rated: 8.5/10 Jul 3, 2024 Full Review Will Bjarnar InSession Film It's a complicated performance in a film rich with complicated questions, most of which aren't easily answered, or keen to be pinned down at all. Rated: A- Jul 2, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
