Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 1/5 --
[S]o the film was never meant to be a realistic study of psychosis, more a dark comedy about a reluctant serial killer, but any potential enjoyment is soured by its repugnant attitude towards mental illness and, of course, women.

Rating: 4/5 --
By playing with storytelling rules, almost to the point of madness, Satrapi has elicited sympathy for the devil.

Rating: 3/4 --
Think of this stylish, quirky and quite grisly feature from Marjane Satrapi as a meeting of Psycho, Dexter and Dr. Doolittle.

Globe and Mail
Here we have a rather sluggish and tonally awkward blend that is neither successful as a comedy or a darker genre effort.

The movie has to be taken at face value: As a wacky and unsettling jaunt into sheer madness.

Profound mental illness is rarely a laughing matter, but The Voices proves that no subject is too bleak to wring comedy from.

Product Description:
An amiable shipping clerk's optimistic exterior masks a dark secret that leads to tragic repercussions when he stops taking his anti-psychotic meds in this satirical horror comedy from Marjane Satrapu. Jerry (Ryan Reynolds) lives in the picturesque American town of Milton, where he earns his living in a factory that produces bathtubs and toilets. Jerry pines for his pretty co-worker, Fiona (Gemma Arterton), who works in accounting and barely acknowledges his existence. Optimistic that he can win her affections after he's recruited to help organize an office work party, Jerry stops taking the medications prescribed to him by his psychiatrist (Jacki Weaver), and that's when the voices start. Though his loyal dog offers Jerry comforting words of reassurance, his cynical cat continually reminds him that he is deeply deranged and completely unworthy of love. Later, when Jerry finally manages to get Fiona alone, the sudden and unexpectedly grim turn of events sends Jerry plummeting down a particularly dark path. Anna Kendrick co-stars
