This is the strangest movie I have seen this year. It's not a movie for most people because of how weird it can get. It was my first David Cronenberg film, but I really liked his style of body horror. The world building and concept of body modification in this movie was…

All this movie did was confirmed the directors question...how much disturbance can I get by with and still sell a ticket?

David Cronenberg body horror at his best. Slow and deliberate with commentary on our cheap plastic world delicately woven within the shock quilt.

A film that could only be ripped from the mind of David Cronenberg

Story telling was directly through dialogue. Audience was never given a chance to infer information. Acting was terrible (except for Stewart), effects were terrible, lighting was terrible. Lots of unnecessary female nudity. Storyline was choppy, at best.

enjoyed the movie but it might have been better in the format of a limited tv series

Tried to be thought provoking but missed the mark. In addition the acting is cliché.

This movie had some great world building and interesting dystopian ideas, but the plot didn’t go many places and was so convoluted. I’m fine with getting weird and artsy but the cinematography was very uninspired like most aspects of this movie. Potential wasted I feel

David Cronenberg stares upon humanity’s need to evolve toward some kind of survival with a serene, godlike assurance.

Structured as a hardboiled detective thriller, Crimes of the Future has plenty of provocative concepts and images that will put a grin on your face (not least the dancer who has several ears on his face), but you may find yourself willing the plot to pick up momentum, and the ickiness to get a whole lot ickier.

Crimes of the Future still has its strengths. Howard Shore’s score lends a tragic, almost stately emotional counterpoint to the steel of the wit.
