Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
Cahill spends the entire film bringing a sense of wonder to the desperately rational Ian, and if the film takes on a glow toward the end, that glow feels well-earned.

rotten:
I Origins challenges too little and ties up things too neatly for it to register as anything more than well-made, well-intentioned hogwash.

rotten:
Big ideas can sometimes lead to great motion pictures or, as in the case of I Origins, colossal misfires.

fresh:
With a slew of seemingly random clues unraveling in the pursuit of scientific mystery, Origins becomes gut-punching marvel.

rotten:
Although the film and the actors keep on looking good, this solemn, soppy, fantasy has nothing to say about science or faith.
