Good News Ratings & Reviews
Loud and Clear Reviews
Emma Vine
Though much of Good News is fictional, the film flips the script, retelling a true-life story with dashes of action, humor, and thrills.
JVS Media & Productions/Team JVS
Samuel Leggett Jr.
Good News is a dark, satirical gem on Netflix. The lead, 'Mr. Nobody,' is brilliant-playing the fool while outsmarting everyone. It balances violence with genuine hilarity perfectly, even in a confined plane setting. An engaging film you shouldn't miss.
Shade Studios
Alfred Castaneda
It's an intentionally silly ride, with equally silly visual effects that leave much to be desired.

DJ BenHaMeen
One of the best films of 2025, beautiful in every way. A satire that doesn't punch down, some of the most inventive cinematography that I've seen in years, incredibly well acted by the entire cast, there are really no flaws in this film.
PopMatters
Ana Yorke
It's the scathing view of individual and collective self-centeredness that makes Good News a timely story of how it is that everything goes wrong when it shouldn't.
InSession Film
Maxance Vincent
Everyone is ridiculed, even you, the viewer, for your attempts to sympathize with these self-centered idiots who will only act if it benefits them - and them only.
In Review Online
Joshua Polanski
Following suit with the slow Marvelization of the South Korean [film] industry, every 10 minutes requires a joke, which only functions to numb the thriller at Good News' core.
Common Sense Media
JK Sooja
There is a clear and well-executed vision in "Good News," despite its surface-level critique.
Decider
Johnny Loftus
Funny and unpredictable, Good News has a total blast messing with reality. Which goes for both the facts of actual history and its in-film story's consistent, intriguing unreliability.
RogerEbert.com
Glenn Kenny
The irrepressible tone of mordant giggliness this movie hits so often is entirely its own, keeping the movie buoyant throughout its over two-hour running time.
LeisureByte.com
Archi Sengupta
Good News is a hilariously unhinged yet tense watch that will leave anyone on edge.
But Why Tho?
Sarah Musnicky
Good News will leave audiences guessing about who will prevail in the end.
Digital Mafia Talkies
Pramit Chatterjee
Good News is one of the best movies of the year.
IndieWire
David Ehrlich
Just droll, twisty, and stylish enough to forgive this 136-minute film for using a lot more runway than it needs to be airborne, "Good News" is a veritable caricature of middle-management.
Asian Movie Pulse
Panos Kotzathanasis
Korean cinema may not reach the heights of the 2000s and 2010s anytime soon, but this turn toward slapstick is certainly promising, and "Good News" is a prime example of this trend.
Variety
Dennis Harvey
Energetic and astutely paced as it is, this tale simply goes on longer than maximum viewer involvement can withstand, its buoyancy eventually deflating somewhat. Still, too much of a good thing is better than none.
Pajiba
Kayleigh Donaldson
If one joke doesn't work, you don't have to wait long for the next one. It's both tense and hilarious, a hard combination to pull off, even when your plot isn't focused on a terrorist attack.
Cocalecas
Ruben Peralta Rigaud
Good News is one of the most stimulating films of the year. And although not everything it tells is true, rarely has a lie told us so much. [Full review in Spanish]
Next Best Picture
Giovanni Lago
Byun's direction maintains firm control over the film's comedic tone, letting suspenseful moments thrive while crafting an energetic narrative. His comedic sensibility perfectly matches his cast, who all understand the film's tone.
