EmpireBen TravisApr 14, 2025
Not exactly a world leader in the action movie stakes – but entertaining enough, particularly thanks to Viola Davis.  Read full review

The Observer (UK)Wendy IdeApr 14, 2025
As anyone who saw The Woman King will know, Davis has a formidable screen presence and serious action chops; for all its silliness, there’s plenty of fun to be had watching her slaughter the bad guys amid a diplomatic hail of bullets and canapés. Read full review

The GuardianBenjamin LeeApr 11, 2025
The action is serviceable enough, enjoyment based less on deftly staged choreography and more on the catharsis offered to Davis, as president and actor (she has spoken in recent press about the pleasure and freedom the role has provided). Read full review

The TimesEd PottonApr 11, 2025
Unburdened by narrative logic, there is a joie de vivre in the way Davis, 59, throws men over her shoulder, elbows them in the face and sprays them with machine-gun fire. Read full review

The Hollywood ReporterLovia GyarkyeApr 9, 2025
Once the principal heroes and villains have been established and the perfunctory narrative throat-clearing is out of the way, G20 finds its groove as a solid popcorn action flick. Read full review

ColliderTania HussainApr 9, 2025
While G20 doesn’t always rise to meet Davis at her level, it’s a performance that elevates even the weakest beats, giving audiences a satisfying, if uneven, ride. Read full review

The Daily BeastNick SchagerApr 10, 2025
Part Die Hard, part wish-fulfillment saga for a post-2024 present that didn’t come to pass, it’s a fantasy of feminist and U.S. might that’s chockablock with implausibilities. Read full review

TimeStephanie ZacharekApr 11, 2025
A movie that does little more than tick off a selection of action-movie boxes—though some of them are at least ticked off with a satisfying click. Read full review

The New York TimesBeatrice LoayzaApr 10, 2025
Intensions aside, G20 plays well as a silly action movie. I certainly cackled throughout, making it easy to shrug off the incoherence of the conspiracy plot and the obligatory supermom additions. Read full review

The PlaylistBrian FarvourApr 18, 2025
Sadly, even for the biggest supporter of everything action has had to offer genre-lovers for decades, “G20” remains hard to recommend, as much as it hits those recognizable beats and with its Oscar winner attempting to lead the charge towards the end credits. Read full review

The A.V. ClubTim GriersonApr 9, 2025
If G20 barely registers as original, its star remains commanding. Even when Davis dutifully goes through the motions as stern government official Amanda Waller in the recent DC films, she seems incapable of phoning in a role or winking to the audience. Read full review

VarietyPeter DebrugeApr 9, 2025
Action does not come naturally to the “Under the Same Moon” director, though the script poses an even bigger problem in G20, a movie whose short title manages to reflect both its high concept and shockingly low intelligence level. Read full review
