                      Humane

                      "Highly underrated film from such a talented bloodline. Stick with this one. It brings up a lot of interesting bigger ideas within this story of autonomy and potential American exceptionalism. Thought-provoking and prescient."

                      — Keith M. (5/5)

                      Lady Cronenberg

                      "Humane is a tense, unsettling thriller that builds its story around a chillingly plausible near-future premise. Jay Baruchel stands out with a nervous, unpredictable energy that keeps the film feeling on edge. It’s a bit uneven at times, but its sharp concept and claustrophobic atmosphere make it a compelling and memorable watch."

                      — Shawn M. (3/5)

                      Cronenberg family talent

                      "Set over a single day in the near future, Humane follows a wealthy family forced into a brutal moral dilemma after a global ecological collapse leads governments to enforce population‑reduction quotas. When a retired news anchor announces he has volunteered for euthanasia, a bureaucratic mishap forces his children to choose which one of them must die next. This contained setup gives the film a tense, stage‑play intensity, and reviewers note that its nightmare scenario feels disturbingly plausible."

                      — Tarek E. (3/5)

                      Solid debut from Caitlin Cronenberg

                      "Solid debut from Caitlin Cronenberg which just shows you body horror runs in the family. Great cast too as I always enjoy watching Jay Baruchel and it's great seeing Emily Hampshire in something that is not "Schitt's Creek". And damn we got Mr. Eyebrows himself Peter Gallagher in it too. Fun little flick."

                      — Bryan K. (5/5)

                      I Would be Inhumane To Not Like This Flick!

                      "This particular flick is an awesome release! It is a debut for me, and I really thought it was an amazing watch from beginning to end! The peerless VS restoration process was on full display with stellar sound and picture! Thank you, VS, for continuing to lovingly restore and release so many wonderful films from every conceivable genre! You are keeping physical media alive in this streaming world we now live in! Highly recommended!"

                      — Paul K. (5/5)

                      Intelligent and fun

                      "This one I liked a lot! Great fun thriller and black comedy! Great performances from good actors and nice picture and sound ! Nice slipp to 👍😁 Recommended"

                      — Patrick J. (5/5)

                      Humane

                      "Nice to see Caitlin Cronenberg get a release here. This is a great movie and I’m stoked to have this on bluray with a little booklet."

                      — Ant D. (5/5)

                      Pretty Good!

                      "This flick is pretty solid. It's got a great social commentary, which I could totally see our society headed to sooner rather than later. No real big names in the cast, but it was interesting seeing Jay Baruchel as a completely inhuman character. Definitely a change of pace for him. A decent thriller that sees the characters making some really dumb choices in the end, but it wraps up nicely."

                      — Brian G. (4/5)

                      highly recommended.

                      "IFC's Humane arrives on blu-ray disc courtesy of VS partner label IFC with a beautiful special limited edition slipcover, A global environmental collapse forces world leaders to take extreme measures to reduce earth's population. directed by: Caitlin Cronenberg. An excellent release highly recommended."

                      — LUIS C. (5/5)

                      It was alright. . .

                      "A bit of a fumble but I totally understand they were working through covid and I am sure the script was designed for that. It was still a great story. . . was just missing something. Plus the ending was kind of odd and made me dislike majority of the characters. Still. . . 💚💚💚1/2 stars. Will watch again."
