Synchronic Ratings & Reviews
San Jose Mercury News
Randy Myers
Indie filmmakers Justin Benson and Aaron Scott Moorhead have made the sci-fi landscape a much more vibrant and interesting place.
The Victoria Advocate
Joe Friar
Intelligent science fiction with a first-rate cast that is determined to blow your mind. Benson & Moorhead are two of the most interesting filmmakers out there.
Rolling Stone
David Fear
There's a sense that you've stepped into these time-traveling bad trips and can feel the ground shifting beneath your feet. It's Synchronic's saving grace.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
Still, it's the duo's wonky, systematic approach to the gimmick that makes "Synchronic" so much fun.
IndieWire
David Ehrlich
"Synchronic" is easy to applaud for being what Steve might describe as "brain damage orangutan fucking crazy," but Benson and Moorhead's ode to the present doesn't leave you with a newfound appreciation for the moment at hand.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
A great buddy relationship is at the center of a film full of big ideas and psychedelic journeys.
Austin Chronicle
Richard Whittaker
Mackie plays Steve as a man who has retained one friendship as his sole link to humanity, keeping everyone else at a surly remove.
The Daily Beast
Nick Schager
One mesmerizing drug trip of a movie...
National Newspaper Publishers Association
Dwight Brown
It's as if the film's special effects were done in a high school physics lab or on an iPhone -- a first generation one, not the new 12.
RogerEbert.com
Matt Zoller Seitz
While it offers some gripping and/or darkly beautiful images, it's ultimately more about ideas than spectacle.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
Synchronic [is] a groovy psychedelic hallucinatory delight worth getting addicted to.
New York Times
Glenn Kenny
It's rare that very brainy sci-fi packs a genuinely emotional, or even just sensationalistic, wallop. But the filmmaking team of Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead are working up an impressive batting average in this department.
Tribune News Service
Katie Walsh
This philosophical core, coupled with the cynical paramedic duo premise, akin to Martin Scorsese's "Bringing Out the Dead," makes for a unique, sci-fi-tinged drama with supernatural elements rooted in real-world stakes and emotion.
Slant Magazine
Henry Stewart
About a drug that sends its users back in time for seven minutes, the film holds your hand and walks you through its chronology mazes.
AV Club
Katie Rife
[A]though the ending of Synchronic is a bit more Hollywood than I'm used to in a Benson and Moorhead film, the duo's signature narrative ingenuity and ability to spin tension seemingly out of thin air have translated fully intact.
Pajiba
Roxana Hadadi
Synchronic is too imbalanced to be a new genre classic, in need of more reflection from its characters and more risk-taking with its sci-fi elements, but Anthony Mackie is a strong lead.
The Hollywood Reporter
John DeFore
Despite its uncanny start, Synchronic is just more normal than it might've been, and less deep.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
Moorhead and Benson allow the viewer to do most of this symbolic unpacking, resulting in a film that resonates on a deeper level than most disposable science fiction.
Variety
Dennis Harvey
"Synchronic" is more accomplished in its packaging than its content.
The Playlist
Jason Bailey
"SYNCHRONIC" can best be described as egghead indie sci-fi, in which the ideas are as exciting as the effects.
