Cameron Ritter Geek Vibes Nation Jul 20, 2025 7/10
In its best moments is a gripping, entertaining look at mortality, family, and the mundane. Mary-Louise Parker gets a chance to deliver a career-best big-screen performance and Ayo Edebiri shows off another side that we haven’t seen much of.

Parker and Edebiri each bring a likeable loose energy to their roles, allowing the story to convince on its own terms.

I felt a little frustrated that the complexity of the movie’s concept resulted in a simplistic sentiment about valuing your time with your loved ones, until Parker perfectly executes the film’s dramatic climax.

A low-energy Groundhog Day with no jokes... But it really is moving and assured.

Lisa Trifone Third Coast Review Oct 3, 2024 2.5/4
Parker and Edibiri are charming as unlikely partners in this far-fetched mystery, but neither of them is really playing anything other than themselves...

To give credit where credit is due, Omni Loop does manage to explore a time travel story from a new angle. Unfortunately, the experience of watching it also suggests that perhaps there is a reason why no one ever explored it previously.

I will say I’ve loved Parker in everything she’s ever appeared in, and though she plays this one wan and pinched, she does it well.

A science fiction movie that’s more driven by concepts and emotions than by hardware or action.

The black hole in Zoya's chest might suck in adults who find relatability in her quest for relativity, but teens may wonder whether they can go back in time two hours and do something else.

In the end, thanks to Parker, it does succeed in getting to an emotional truth about a person who gets stuck facing up to perhaps the hardest thing a person can face: the end, and the resulting reckoning with all that came before.

Elemental perplexes come clear through the keen performances you’d expect from this pair of gifted actors. The universe lies in how we react to small moments that hold larger implications.

Holly Hazelwood Spectrum Culture Sep 23, 2024
This movie may work incredibly well for some, but its flaws drag it down to the point where even the fact that it spends so much energy trying to tell us how to feel in many scenes might make it harder to truly love it.

Brent Simon AV Club Sep 23, 2024 C
Measuring end-of-life anxiety with an open heart if not the most disciplined head, Omni Loop exists in a soupy, ill-defined emotional middle ground — occasionally amusing but not quite funny, and unable (or unwilling) to commit to penetrating melancholia.

This bittersweet comedy about discovery in the face of mortality is both clever and amusing.

With a witty, nuanced cast, fantastic direction, and music that elevates the quirk, Omni Loop is a delightful, teary surprise that deserves accolades.

You could watch Parker breathe life into this woman wrestling with a metaphysical conundrum forever.

Led by an excellent Mary-Louise Parker and a solid Ayo Edebiri, this certainly isn’t the most entertaining film of its subgenre, but it offers plenty to chew on.

Matt Lynch In Review Online Sep 20, 2024
In its second half... events that are already repetitive by design slowly become monotonous, sapping the film of its early juice and leaving Omni Loop‘s idiosyncrasies to ultimately be swallowed up by its own more routine ambitions.

Dan Bayer Next Best Picture Sep 20, 2024 6/10
The film shines when Britto leans into the dynamic between Paula and Zoya. Parker and Edebiri throw off sparks whenever their characters butt heads, making their discussions of the science of time travel entertaining.

Jared Mobarak Hey, Have You Seen ...? Sep 20, 2024 8/10
It's a much deeper role than you might initially assume, and Parker excels at delivering that complexity at the perfect moments. Edebiri, Harris Yulin, and the rest of the cast provide wonderful support, but this is Parker's film.
