What to Know
Critics Consensus
Lacking enough depth to fulfill its evident ambitions or enough excitement to work as a sci-fi action thriller, Anon lives down to its title in the most glumly predictable ways.

Wendy Ide Observer (UK) The tone-deaf execution of the film - all flat-line delivery and awkward pauses - rather undermines the intelligence of the premise. Rated: 2/5 May 13, 2018 Full Review Donald Clarke Irish Times All we're missing is a story worth caring about. Rated: 2/5 May 11, 2018 Full Review Ed Potton Times (UK) Ends up like an episode of Black Mirror without the jokes. Or much of the drama. Rated: 2/5 May 10, 2018 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review Neat ideas aside, the antiseptic quality of Anon, including predictable plot machinations, leaves the experience emotionally vacant. Rated: 2/4 Mar 14, 2022 Full Review Javier Ocaña El Pais (Spain) The weariness before the characters and the lack of concretion beat the notes of wit. [Full Review in Spanish] May 1, 2020 Full Review Tom McAdam One Room With A View Anon is one of those films where you imagine that the writer sat around thinking about how cool and edgy his script was, completely missing the fact that the story jumps around from scene to scene with very little cohesion or sense.

Tim F A sweet dystopia, hiwever not rely memorable. Not to deep either. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars05/28/24 Full Review Michael F It's an intriguing movie, though a bit hard to follow unless you are really committed to paying full attention. One thing that bothered me while trying to "buy in" to the whole premise is why regular video/security camera technology doesn't appear to exist in this world, and why the only recordings of anyone or anything is solely available by hacking into a humans memory/visions. Rated 3/5 Stars •Rated 3 out of 5 stars02/06/24 Full Review Kandy A I quickly gave up. Bleak movie, poor story line, just not worth the time to finish watching. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars12/26/23 Full Review Andrea C Sci fi investigativo freddo sia nei colori sia nei contenuti.Lo spicchio di mondo creato in realtà si fonda solamente su una visione distropica della privacy e della memoria, il resto rimane totalmente inesplorato.Inoltre si ha la costante sensazione di guardare la storia da fuori, di vivere un freddo resoconto di una storia già avvenuta e che non viene per nulla aiutato dalla mancanza di emozioni la cui sintesi massima si ha nella sequenza della cancellazione del figlio dalla memoria dei genitori, comunque tranquilli e senza reazioni veramente tristi.Anche la trama in fin dei conti non risulta particolarmente interessante; non sono male invece i dialoghi, non particolarmente lenti e abbastanza schietti. Rated 2/5 Stars •Rated 2 out of 5 stars06/28/23 Full Review A G I was highly engaged. I found this film stylish and gripping. MAYBE one of the best i have seen.I can NOT believe the bad reviews.... Rated 4/5 Stars •Rated 4 out of 5 stars05/22/23 Full Review Tim O I really like this movie. It evokes thoughts of movies like Equilibrium. It's not a fast-paced movie, but it's not exactly slow. Imagine having a futuristic access to memories and then having them deleted slowly without the ability to stop it. Rated 4/5 Stars •Rated 4 out of 5 stars04/29/23 Full Review Read all reviews

Rotten Tomatoes and the Tomatometer score are the world's most trusted recommendation resources for quality entertainment. As the leading online aggregator of movie and TV show reviews from critics, we provide fans with a comprehensive guide to what's Fresh – and what's Rotten – in theaters and at home.
Although the name "Rotten Tomatoes" connects to the practice of audiences throwing rotten tomatoes in disapproval of a poor stage performance, the direct inspiration for the name from Duong, Lee, and Wang came from an equivalent scene in the 1992 Canadian film Léolo.
The percentage is based on the film's reviews aggregated by the website and assessed as positive or negative, and when all aggregated reviews are positive, the film has a 100% rating.
Eating tomatoes that have been contaminated with harmful bacteria can make you sick. Contaminated tomatoes have been linked to incidents of food poisoning caused by Salmonella.
A red tomato score indicating its fresh status, is designated when at least 60% of the reviews are positive. A green splat indicating rotten status, is displayed when less than 60% of the reviews are positive.
Citizen Kane (1941), starring and directed by Orson Welles, has topped several international polls, including five consecutive decades at number 1 in the British Film Institute's Sight and Sound decennial poll of critics. Some surveys focus on all films, while others focus on a particular genre or country.
Now, there's one more score that depicts divides between movie critics and fans, the Audience Score. This score, according to Rotten Tomatoes, portrayed by a popcorn bucket, is the percentage of all Rotten Tomatoes and Flixster users who have rated the movie positively.
As the reviews of a given film accumulate, the Rotten Tomatoes score measures the percentage that are more positive than negative, and assigns an overall fresh or rotten rating to the movie. Scores of over 60 percent are considered fresh, and scores of 59 percent and under are rotten.
Rotten Tomatoes has been named the most reliable and the most-fair film rating database, according to a data-led study by BacanaPlay, a U.K.-based gambling operator.
Rotten Tomatoes awards the Certified Fresh™ accolade to films and TV programs that have a steady Tomatometer® of 75% or higher after a set amount of reviews (80 for films in wide release, 40 for films in limited release, 20 for TV shows), including 5 reviews from Top Critics.
Reviews are added in two ways: either through curation or by self-submitting Tomatometer- approved critics, who add their reviews themselves. Only reviews from approved critics and sources are included on the Tomatometer.
