Moviegoers are saying
This polarizing fever dream of a film delivers a bonkers satirical black comedy that's part AI dystopia commentary, part screwball energy showcase for Sam Rockwell. While audiences are divided on its nonsensical conclusion and one-note boomer-esque commentary on AI-destroyed generations, most agree it's a memorable, vibrant display of technical prowess that will leave you talking theories long after the credits roll.

    Bonkers. Gore is simply yelling at a wall here (so happy he's back). much of it is so memorable and vibrant -  a proper display of his technical prowess. the conclusion does enter the realm of too nonsensical even for him, but it's still a lot of fun. incredibly in your…

    Did not explain cloning & how already mature, also did not explain time mix that started in 2021. Zazie Beetz was great as always.

    Couldn't decide whether to give this 4 or 5 stars. A very entertaining but BIZARRE movie. pretty funny, absurd, and also poignant at times. Had my wife and I talking about our theories of just what the hell we watched during the entire drive home, and we both really enjoyed…

This starts strong but doesn’t always have the room to explore all the ideas it crams in, even with a lengthy running time. Still, Rockwell’s man-on-a-mission is a delight.

It’s wrapped in an original, funny piece of entertainment, but this is also undeniably a warning.

Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die doesn’t quite deliver on the sardonic promise of its catchy title, but its appealing cast and Verbinski’s flair for kinetic action set pieces make it a reasonably entertaining entry in the canon of gonzo sci-fi comedies fueled by existential dread about the dystopian techno-dominant reality we’re already trapped in.
