Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
As a movie, They Live is lethargic. As election propaganda, it's terrific.

John Carpenter's They Live has cult favorite written all over it, and part of the reason is the way it regenerates the cheap, juicy, surprisingly potent sci-fi of the 1950s.

They Live is the looniest movie of the season and also one of the most engaging.

The joke is in the material; the idea itself is funny and daring. And some time soon, They Live suggests, with grim, knowing wink, the joke may be on us.

A fantastically subversive film, a nifty little confection pitting us vs them, the haves vs the have-nots.
