Moviegoers are saying
This polarizing fantasy romance divides audiences between those who connect with its original approach to confronting past trauma through surreal storytelling, and others who find it pretentious and confusing. While some viewers praise its emotional depth and visual effects, critics dismiss it as 'two aging self-absorbed millennials' working through 'benign first-world traumas' in an incomprehensible narrative.

BeatriceSep 20, 2025takes place in a fantasy world where trauma dumping on a man for two hours straight only makes him want you more
zoë rose bryantSep 18, 2025It’s been awhile since I’ve seen a movie try so hard to manufacture a chemistry between characters that simply did not exist. It’s difficult to be profound or romantic when the dialogue feels ripped from the decor found at Home Goods™️ and the whole movie feels so plastic,…

Why does this movie title sound like something Donald Trump would say? 😭😭😭
alexgiuSep 22, 2025There are moments in life when a person appears before us not just as they are, but as a question. A risk. A possibility. They stand like a door in the hallway of our lives, and we must decide whether to knock, to enter, or to walk past and pretend we never saw…

One of the best romantic dramas I’ve seen in a while. Well written, well acted, and emotionally compelling. This director is now 3 for 3. 9/10
Melissa lovedA Big Bold Beautiful Journey8/10 I really enjoyed it. Loved the chemistry and how beautifully tragic this story felt. I like when movies make me rethink life and love. The music was wonderful and the ending was amazing.
I wear suits now lovedA Big Bold Beautiful Journey사랑이란, 저 문 너머에 뭐가 있을 지 알더라도 담담하게 함께 직면하는 것. 그리고 그 문을 지나 만난 또 다른 문 앞에서, 그 너머에 뭐가 있을 지 모른다하여도 기꺼이, 용기있게, 함께 두 손 맞잡고 나아가보는 것.

Não estava a espera de ser tão bom
Clay Werner likedA Big Bold Beautiful Journey7.8 - I have to admit two things. Between this & Life of Chuck, two movies that should have blown away my sappy, melodrama loving self, I think I’m getting more cynical. And I still think I liked this way more than the average viewer will. It was my second most anticipated movie of the year. One…
Jen likedA Big Bold Beautiful JourneyI know this movie is getting a lot of hate but I honestly enjoyed it. Colin Ferrell stole this movie for me! His eyes look like he’s feeling the pain, joy, sorrow of every single moment. It makes me want to go back and watch every single one of his movies. But Margot Robbie just looked kind of dead…
- Brutalist likedA Big Bold Beautiful Journey
Throughout the whole film the cinematography just steals the show, the whole time. Our leads are fantastical with an emphasis on Colin Farrell being extremely potent like he always is. Story wise, it’s good, not great really and the pacing is a bit off. I like how they decided to risk, for…
Madison Cruz likedA Big Bold Beautiful JourneyThis was different and I liked the aspect of this a lot, going back in time to your past memories/experiences and learning from them, and talking to your younger self and what you would say, knowing what you do now. This was very introspective, but I would’ve liked more information as to who/what…
Waden lovedA Big Bold Beautiful Journey“Choose to be content, and enjoy the happiness that comes from that.” Sat in the theater for 10 minutes after just thinking about my life. There’s so many beautiful lessons to be taken from this movie. It’s shot so well and written almost like a play. I love it. The chemistry between leads was…

Remarkable way of showing the importance of confronting your past self and issues while moving forward
ESEarl StevensTwo aging self-absorbed millennials drop acid, witness each other's benign first-world traumas, and eventually decide to settle for each other. Entertaining but tragic.
BSBen SniderThis sweet, emotional, romantic story has meritorious memorable music but will leave you mostly dry eyed!

Vulgar language. Taking God’s Name in vain!
MJMadiha JavaidThis movie made absolutely no sense to me. I walked out in the middle of the movie. I never walk out and this is my first time doing that. What were they thinking?
SESteven ElikanExcellent movie.

The questions being probed here about how to be vulnerable, what it takes to connect – y’know, the big stuff – aren’t exclusive to romance, after all. And I so admired the movie for having the daring and openheartedness to try to tackle the big stuff. I just wish I liked it more.

This messy romantic phantasmagoria is a hinterland for no one: a musical without musical numbers, a romcom without comedy. Sincerity saves it from collapse.

In the pantheon of films about magical cars, this one is not big, bold or beautiful.
