Sean of The Daily Rotation wrote, "It really doesn’t matter what you think of Roman Polanski. Whether you dislike him, his behavior, or his politics, nothing can really detract from the fact that he can make a damn good film. I understand some refuse to see his films because they don’t want to contribute further to his career in a positive manner, which I understand. Anyone with a true appreciation for the medium of film as a means of artistic expression has to admit the man knows what he’s doing when he directs a motion picture"
FMV says: "Thoroughly entertaining despite being not being the classic it could have been, there is no doubting that this superbly acted film is great to watch and is a welcome diversion from the gross out comedies, rom-coms and Hangover-esque movies currently saturating the market."
Jeremy of We Got This Covered wrote, "Carnage may sound like a tedious film on paper, four actors in one room/area for the length of the film, with the only outside interference coming from the occasional phone call. It’s both a comedy and a drama, providing you with a first class look at the breakdown of general human behavior. It works wonders as a comedy, with veteran funny man John C. Reilly keeping the mood light and fun, but it’s not afraid to break loose and let the normally serious Kate Winslet, Jodie Foster and Christoph Waltz in on the action. Carnage is both extremely funny and downright interesting and hard to stop watching because of how it touches up on so many emotions, ideas and the basic nature of how humans function. Only Roman Polanski could make something like this work."
