They Cloned Tyrone Ratings & Reviews
New York Magazine/Vulture
Alison Willmore
The rare offering that doesn't just feel like it's made by a person but by someone with an eye for visual, a distinctive voice, and a sharp sense of humor.
Hey, Have You Seen ...?
Jared Mobarak
Just because it proves more of an entertaining romp than political satire, though, doesn't mean the latter won't resonate. Think a grounded SORRY TO BOTHER.
The Root
Shanelle Genai
It's really the subplots that should get your brain turning. Chief among them is the film's exploration of some Black folks' adherence to conspiracy theories, no matter how outlandish.
San Jose Mercury News
Randy Myers
His [Juel Taylor] is a richly imagined and visually impressive world, and the laugh-out-loud screenplay he and Tony Rettenmaier wrote fires off joke after joke while paying homage to blaxploitation films of yore.
Los Angeles Times
Noel Murray
The offbeat science-fiction comedy They Cloned Tyrone has a high-concept premise, delivered with a distinctively skewed, slapstick-esque comic rhythm.
Variety
Owen Gleiberman
Simply put, "They Cloned Tyrone" has a good set-up, but the film is too sketchy and conceptual to work as a bad-dream thriller. Yet it establishes Jule Taylor as a director of craft and a certain audacious nerve.
FilmWeek (LAist)
Peter Rainer
The three actors are fun to watch, but it was spinning its wheels a lot of the time and reminded me of better movies.
Rolling Stone
David Fear
It could be tighter, tenser, a little sharper with its satire. Yet there are enough big, better-than-decent movie moments, from shoot-outs to impromptu elevator sing-alongs, that not even a small screen can dilute. That's entertainment!
AV Club
Tim Cogshell
It's funny and more thoughtful than it looks while still maintaining itself as a trenchant social satire.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
This is a film that has much to say about the systematic oppression of marginalized and exploited classes, and the powers that be who will go to extreme measures to make sure the more things change, the more things stay the same. Also, it's funny as hell.
CNN.com
Brian Lowry
Slow to start, the movie taps into a genre of "What's behind the curtain?" paranoia that's provocative, if a little slim on detail.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
A creative, witty surprise in the middle of this summer of relatively dreadful original movies on streaming services.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
Juel Taylor's feature debut is a little bit Get Out, a little bit The Cabin in the Woods and a little bit Invasion of the Body Snatchers, while being equal parts weighty and fun.
New York Times
Robert Daniels
"They Cloned Tyrone" also stands firmly on its glossy style - the evocatively smoky John Carpenter-esque cinematography and the Blaxploitation-inspired costumes - and its spirited performances.
Slant Magazine
Ross McIndoe
The satire here isn't quite as on point as that of its predecessors, but it helps that Boyega, Parris, and Foxx share the sort of chemistry that even the most secretive government lab couldn't cook up.
Deadline Hollywood Daily
Todd McCarthy
If not well balanced or fully achieved, They Cloned Tyrone is provocative in its mix of sci-fi and contemporary political elements; it's unusual, gutsy and entirely welcome as something different and unexpected in the genre.
IndieWire
Christian Zilko
The winning cast allows Taylor to exploit the formula that the Coen brothers have made careers out of: watching lovable dimwits investigate a mystery that they're completely unqualified to solve is always a blast.
The Messenger
Jordan Hoffman
If the blend of sci-fi and comedy with an examination of a community's woozy feelings toward the broader culture weren't enough, the picture also looks great.
The Hollywood Reporter
Lovia Gyarkye
It's a compelling ride overall. Much of that can be credited to the cast, whose ability to play both comedy and drama make their characters worth rooting for.
San Francisco Chronicle
G. Allen Johnson
"They Cloned Tyrone" can be heavy-handed times and runs a bit long, but the committed performances of its plucky triumvirate of stars go a long way toward the fun.
