What to Know

Critics Consensus

Boss Level powers up the increasingly crowded time-loop genre with a gleefully over-the-top sci-fi action thriller that revels in its own excess.

Audience Says

There aren't many movies that successfully use video game-style mechanics to tell a fun story, but Boss Level is one sci-fi action thriller that proves an exception to the rule.

Kristy Puchko Pajiba Don't waste your time on Boss Level. Mar 15, 2021 Full Review Barry Hertz Globe and Mail Time and again, Grillo surprises and delights, no matter the creative or financial restraints placed upon him. Boss Level could learn a thing or two from its leading man. Mar 15, 2021 Full Review Robert Levin Newsday Not funny or provocative at all, but simply the droning spectacle of this unlikable man being killed and then killed again. Rated: 1/4 Mar 10, 2021 Full Review Emiliano Basile EscribiendoCine ... An action comedy in which death isn't as tragic as lost time. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 7/10 Sep 26, 2023 Full Review Serena Seghedoni Loud and Clear Reviews Frank Grillo shines in Boss Level, a time loop sci-fi action drama featuring irresistible fight scenes, hilarious absurdity, and a surprisingly meaningful twist. Rated: 4/5 Sep 18, 2023 Full Review Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies Joe Carnahan takes an idea of what video games are, slaps on a hard R-rating, and stomps the accelerator, rarely taking his foot off the gas. Rated: 2.5/5 Aug 17, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Robert B Excellent and fun film, tinged with gaming references and also a nod to Groundhog day. Great fun. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/13/24 Full Review Audience Member Und täglich grüßt das Mumeltier mit einer Version von Deadpool. Tolle Action, lustige Gags aber lahme Abschnitte zwischendurch.
