1. Moviezine

8 / 10

Translated from swedish: "Men" is a delightful nightmare, for the one with an open mind.

2. Nöjesguiden

8 / 10

Translated from swedish: With "Men", Garland goes all in with the experimental narrative form, this time to a stronger and even more memorable result. The film is an experience I will not soon forget.

3. Aftonbladet

6 / 10

Translated from swedish: The ending is somewhat of a shock. For me, a bit of a disappointment. But good or bad, it's up to the viewer to decide. The ending will, in any case, make "Men" a talking point and a cult classic, regardless of what one thinks of it.

4. Filmtopp

6 / 10

Translated from swedish: Garland's artistic eye for the image combined with the sound creates a terror that is nothing less than first-class. Even jump scares that I abhor feel so terribly justified in certain places in this film.

5. Sveriges Radio

4 / 10

Translated from swedish: The scary becomes a bit too uninteresting and bordering on silly.

6. Dagens Nyheter

4 / 10

Translated from swedish: In the somewhat unreal atmosphere that is fostered, we get some gimmicky turns, and a personal lead actor in Jessie Buckley.

7. Göteborgs-Posten

Negative, no rating

Translated from swedish: Alex Garland has made a horror film about sadistic men and unwanted male behavior.

8. ETC

Negative, no rating

Translated from swedish: While some elements are elegantly executed, others become overly obvious when Garland tries to hammer home the idea that this horror film is more intellectual than others.
