Mayhem's reviews
Media reviews
Variety
A smartly constructed and sardonically funny indie with attitude that somehow manages the tricky feat of being exuberantly over the top even as it remains consistently on target.
Chicago Sun-Times
Joe Lynch?s fantastically creative, subversive and Tarantino-esque Mayhem stands alone as an entertainingly bloody and dark and twisted social satire ? but it?s even more satisfying for those of us who loved Steven Yeun?s Glenn on The Walking Dead
Roger Ebert
With his best film since ?Wrong Turn 2,? Lynch channels that national anger into a stylish, smart, propulsive gore-fest set in a corporate America that takes no prisoners. But when did it?
The Hollywood Reporter
A nasty diversion (...) A twist on the workplace-bloodbath concept to justify its addition to the micro-genre
Time Out
Mayhem is an energetic genre flick that looks stunning and moves at a ferocious pace...But contrived dialogue and a bewildering narrative tarnish this otherwise enjoyable pulp effort.
Los Angeles Times
As good as Yeun and Weaving are, there?s not a lot here that hasn?t been done
New York Times
The director, Joe Lynch, concocts an uneven blend of video game setups and corporate satire.
