Powerful and moving throughout the film. There were some scripting issues and the plot gets a little messy but the performance from Alexander Skarsgard was top notch. Paul Rudd also surprises with his talent as a darker character that is a departure from his traditional role. I don't know what these critics are thinking. They gave the last jedi a 9/10 but gave Netflix movies like Mute and The Outsider 3/10 ratings, it's just insane. I'm to the point where I don't even listen to them anymore, I mean, who cares what they think? The internet and streaming media are killing them and Hollywood. Go watch this film and enjoy it. 8/10 for me.… Expand

I swear to God, some of these guys wouldn't know a terrific film if it was recommended by Scorsese. Of course everybody has different taste in movies, but never the less, Mute hit the sweet spot for me.… Expand

I appreciated the unpredictability ofWell acted and produced, this film deserves a better rating. Negative reviews have over-stated their issues. The movie is a character piece about very different but fascinatingly flawed characters. I appreciated the unpredictability of where the film was going, which is too often foreshadowed so obviously that many movies lack any suspense. Pacing may have been uneven, but only is an issue if you are expecting an action/thriller rather than detailed emersions into the seemingly unconnected lives of people with an eventual crossroads in the climax.… Expand

This will become part of those cult movies that, when looked through the time perspective, become a must see and part of every movie lover catalog. Critics expect all movies to be classics, tend to criticize what they do not understand, and were very harsh against Mute. But their views are not always coincidental of the general public, so their opinions should not determine the quality of any film. It is their own view of what they wish they could have achieved but didn’t.… Expand

I liked it. Maybe folks just can't handle a main character who doesn't talk? Western civilization doesn't really value silence.

Wasn't terrible, about 20 minutes/make that 40 minutes too long, Paul Rudd makes for an unconvincing tough guy, rest of the cast were good.

Great movie, albeit a bit on the long side. I think the film will appeal more to people who see a bit of themselves in the main character, Leo. The visuals were nice, and the world building was good (true to Duncan Jones' style). The mainGreat movie, albeit a bit on the long side. I think the film will appeal more to people who see a bit of themselves in the main character, Leo. The visuals were nice, and the world building was good (true to Duncan Jones' style). The main issue I had with it was the sometimes meandering nature of the gangsters and their involvement with the plot. Sometimes they seemed important, and other times they did not. Either way, it is a good movie overall. Worth a watch.… Expand

Absolutely loved this movie, it kept me guessing throughout and the characters motivations were well hidden. I felt the pace was needed in order to tell the story just right. Best cyberpunk I've seen in a looong time.

A long movie, but one that draws you in - just take the time and be in a frame of mind to let yourself be sucked in. Cast and Setting are superb and if Paul Rudd doesn't convince you what a superb actor he is, then you are dead inside.

It's watchable, in fact, there are a few very powerful scenes that you just don't see elsewhere. It's predominantly cruel and violent but there is softness within too. There are notes of Blade Runner, Hawkeye from MASH, and Minority Report visuals/tech. I found it to be engaging and a bit unpredictable so watch with an open mind.… Expand

Characters are believable and also the soundtrack is very good.Plot is about a silenced guy who searches for a mysterious blue haired woman.
I wish this could have been a series.
What bothers me is, that in the second half the storyline became somewhat dumb and unnecessary disgusting.... I wished they had chosen a different path, then i had given 8 points.… Expand

Visually, they have similar elements, but that's where it ends.

And there's solid performances from the cast so not too shabby.… Expand

I don't understand how people can give this movie 3's and 4's, and yet give movies like Bright a 7... but i guess that's how opinions work. So here's my take on Mute!

I really like it. We get Cyberpunk, we get a good bad guy played by Paul Rudd, and we get a very Pure guy who is driven by selfless reasons. He can't talk because of an accident in his childhood, so he draws nice sketches which say more than words. He goes to seek his girlfriend who is missing, and he meets people from the strange Cyberpunk underworld.

But who really steels the show is Paul Rudd, who is very good at being a dark person in this movie. The movie is gruesome, and it kept me entertained till the end. It is an excellent movie, i give it an 8/10.… Expand

You like the movie if you watch it until ending. And if you not, that means you didn't see Sam Rockwell out there.
