With "man", 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. - Oscar Söderman

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 "man" a talking point and a cult classic, regardless of what one thinks of it. - Jan-Olov Andersson

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. - Nathalie Leth

The scary becomes a bit too uninteresting and bordering on silly. - Lisa Bergström

In the somewhat unreal atmosphere that is fostered, we get some gimmicky turns, and a personal lead actor in Jessie Buckley. - Mårten Blomkvist

Alex Garland has made a horror film about sadistic men and unwanted male behavior. - Maria Domellöf-Wik

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. - Christian Egefur
