Mute Ratings & Reviews
New York Magazine/Vulture
David Edelstein
Mute is pretty meh but gets points for randomness.
Arkansas Democrat-Gazette
Karen Martin
Intoxicatingly complicated and spiked with moral ambivalence, Mute is a sci-fi noir that requires concentration.
Blu-ray.com
Brian Orndorf
Goes from a mildly arresting detective tale, a future noir, to pure ugliness, stretching on for what becomes an interminable two hours.
Pajiba
Kristy Puchko
Mute feels like a dream: strange, amorphous, emotionally remote, and senseless.
The Daily Beast
Karen Han
There's nothing in the plot that justifies the existence of everything around it. This is a problem exacerbated by the way that Mute is structured as a sort of two-hander.
New York Post
Sara Stewart
But it's never a great sign when your lead is upstaged by the supporting players, and for all its good looks, "Mute" ultimately doesn't have a whole lot to say.
The Atlantic
David Sims
[Paul] Rudd and [Justin] Theroux do their best to have fun, but the movie's miserable tone is actively competing against them at every turn.
IndieWire
Eric Kohn
Jones is clearly striving to develop something fresh out of well-trodden material, and Mute at least exhumes Jones' stature as a notable auteur.
Uproxx
Amy Nicholson
Mute is more interesting as a bullet-point list of absurdities than as a two-hour film. Yet, Jones continues to have my attention.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
A mishmash of ideas in search of a movie.
Entertainment Weekly
Chris Nashawaty
Early trailers made it look like a neon-noir cross between Blade Runner and The Fifth Element. Sadly, it's just another airless dud in red packaging.
Slate
Sam Adams
It's like watching a magician spend several minutes on elaborate flourishes and then drawing your card from a deck of one.
Slant Magazine
Chuck Bowen
MUTE's narrative is a self-consciously odd and stillborn mix of missing-person mystery and rehabilitation parable.
AV Club
Ignatiy Vishnevetsky
With an insipid script, no narrative line, and a cast of unlikable characters, Mute has to get by on looks-neon Cold War hand-me-downs with all the workmanship of journeyman TV.
The Hollywood Reporter
Sheri Linden
The narrative doesn't quite coalesce, and except for a few late-in-the-proceedings moments, it doesn't deliver the grim, indelible shivers of the best noir.
NPR
Scott Tobias
Mute may be a bigger vision than Moon and Source Code, but it's narrower where it counts.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Crust
Jones reportedly conceived of the film years ago. However, as the story evolved and took on more emotional themes he never found the right balance between the sentimental and the hard-boiled.
Variety
Peter Debruge
What is Jones trying to say with "Mute"? One would hardly guess this over-congested generic exercise came from the same mind as the elegant, almost minimalistic "Moon," which made far better use of all that went unsaid.
Popular Mechanics
Jordan Hoffman
Mute is a punishing watch.
TheWrap
Robert Abele
Its arrival on Netflix this weekend suggests that the content-ravenous streaming service add a new category alongside "Trending Now" and "See It Again": "Because You Literally Have Nothing Else To Watch."
