Jenna Ortega and Abel “The Weeknd” Tesfaye in “Hurry Up Tomorrow.” Critics are crushing The Weeknd and Jenna Ortega’s new psychological thriller, Hurry Up Tomorrow . Rated R, Hurry Up Tomorrow opens in theaters everywhere on Friday. The logline for the Hurry Up Tomorrow reads, “A musician plagued by insomnia is pulled into an odyssey with a stranger who begins to unravel the very core of his existence.” The Weeknd — who is billed by his real name, Abel Tesfaye, in the Hurry Up Tomorrow credits — plays Abel while Ortega plays the stranger, Anima. Forbes ‘Final Destination Bloodlines’ Reviews: Are Critics Loving It To Death? By Tim Lammers Directed by Trey Edward Shults from a screenplay by Reza Fahim, Shults and Tesfaye, Hurry Up Tomorrow also stars Barry Keoghan. As of Thursday, Hurry Up Tomorrow has earned a 16% “rotten” rating from Rotten Tomatoes critics based on 32 reviews. Audiences, however, have given the film a 77% “fresh” Popcornmeter rating based on 100-plus verified user ratings. RT’s Critics Consensus for Hurry Up Tomorrow is still pending. What Are Individual Critics Saying About Hurry Up Tomorrow? Jordan Hoffman of Entertainment Weekly is among the top critics on RT who gives Hurry Up Tomorrow a “rotten” rating, writing, “The nearly plot-free movie is self-indulgent, overly serious, and, worst of all, just plain dull.” Charles Bramesco of IndieWire also splatters Hurry Up Tomorrow with a “rotten” rating, writing in his review on RT , “If the unbearable weight of massive talent is really so crazy-making, that unwieldy creativity should be set free, however messy. Or, if I can just say what I mean: making audiences feel nostalgic about Kanye West? In this cultural economy?” Forbes How A Fake Decapitation Landed Directors ‘Final Destination Bloodlines’ By Tim Lammers Variety’s Todd Gilchrist also gives the film a “rotten” review on RT, although he compliments The Weeknd’s co-stars. Gilchrist writes, “ Hurry Up Tomorrow bears all the signs of pop star hubris masquerading as artistic candor, despite game performances by Jenna Ortega and Barry Keogan to prop up the budding thespian.” Ortega and Keoghan also get a positive shout-out from Frank Scheck of The Hollywood Reporter in an otherwise “rotten” review. He writes, “Ortega and Keoghan do what they can, investing their thinly written characters with intense energy. But their hard-working efforts are not enough to make Hurry Up Tomorrow anything more than a huge ego trip for its star.” Forbes Adam Sandler Pays Tribute To ‘Happy Gilmore’ Alligator, Dead At Age 80 By Tim Lammers Brandon Yu of The New York Times also deems Hurry Up Tomorrow “rotten,” writing that the film “primarily amounts to an overextended music video that shrinks and cheapens the universe that the Weeknd’s songs gesture toward.” G. Allen Johnson of The San Francisco Chronicle is the only top critic on RT so far who gives Hurry Up Tomorrow a “fresh” review, writing, “It’s not a perfect film, but it is one that questions, probes and challenges.” Hurry Up Tomorrow opens in theaters everywhere on Friday.
