The movies can be a wonderfully amoral medium, and I found myself liking Marty Mauser -- and not just liking him, but actually rooting for him to succeed. It takes more than a good actor to pull that off. It takes one of the greats. - Justin Chang/NPR
For all the trademark Safdie unease, Marty Supreme remains an enormously good time at the cinema. The 150 minutes speed by as we encounter an array of brilliantly cast cameos. - Donal Clarke/Irish Times
The success of this film relies on Chalamet’s possessed performance. - Matt Rabb/Chicago Reader
Marty Supreme is a thrilling visual onslaught, a rattling cacophony of ideas and images so intense that for two and a half hours you barely have time to catch your breath. It’s utterly exhausting and I loved every jangling second. - Wendy Ide/Observer (UK)
