Matt Goldberg von Collider hat den Film wie ich finde äußerst treffend rezensiert. Er zerreißt ihn auch nicht (gibt ihm ein C), aber spricht die Punkte an, wo der Film (eben vor allem im Storytelling) seine Schwächen hat:
While Jones has a bold, controversial approach for his story, he can’t quite seem to bring it all together, leading to a lot of false notes and misguided ideas.[...] There are some brilliant decisions, like casting the innately likable Paul Rudd as the repulsive, violent Bill, and then there are choices that don’t work out at all, like the pacing between Leo’s story and the Bill/Duck story. The boldness of Jones’ vision demands to be admired, but the blurriness of his storytelling unfortunately leaves a lot to be desired.
