	Media	Author	Review
		Peter Debruge Variety	"The satire is firmly seated in character, and no one understands how well a good homicide can elucidate character better than Wheatley"
		Neil Young The Hollywood Reporter	"A pitch-black and sometimes gorily violent laugh-riot"
		Manohla Dargis The New York Times	"Mr. Wheatley continues in the same bludgeoning, amusingly if dubiously deadpan fashion for what soon feels like an overextended joke"
		Kim Newman Empire	"A uniquely British blend of excruciating comedy of embarrassment and outright grue, not quite as disorientating in its mood shifts as Kill List but just as impressive a film. (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of five)"
		Kyle Smith New York Post	"What begins as an alert and witty barbed satire degenerates into a senseless bloodbath in the black comedy 'Sightseers' (...) Rating: ★★½ (out of four)"
