"Hutton might not entirely stick the landing, but the pleasures of "Lapsis" extend beyond tidy conclusions and easy answers."
—
IndieWire
IndieWire"Hutton scores a direct hit on the persistent machinations of corporations to nickel and dime everyone at each turn."
—
Film Threat
Film Threat"A smart, class-conscious sci-fi parable."
—
Hollywood Reporter
Hollywood Reporter"Straddles both the bleak present-tense reality of Ken Loach's "Sorry We Missed You" and the subversive near-future political satire of Boots Riley's "Sorry to Bother You" while arriving at a whimsical critique all its own."
—
Variety
Variety"It's a sharp, progressively-minded satire with sci-fi elements that would make an interesting double feature with Boots Riley's more outrageous but similarly pissed-off Sorry To Bother You."
—
A.V. Club
A.V. Club""Lapsis" isn't a polemic, it's a caricature, and all the more likable for having its claws sheathed in velvet."
—
The New York Times
The New York Times"It feels like one of those movies we'll be looking at decades from now..."
—
Los Angeles Times
Los Angeles Times"The low-budget, idea-driven corner of science fiction has become a crowded place recently. Lapsis is the latest entry worth seeing and arguing about."
