Onslaught film receives polarized early reviews

Early critical reactions to the new film ‘Onslaught’, directed by Adam Wingard and starring Adria Arjona, are deeply polarized following its recent screenings. Some critics have described the movie as ‘irresponsible’ and ‘bad’, citing a lack of momentum and set pieces.

Conversely, other reviewers have praised the film as a ‘nasty, satiric action thriller’ and a ‘badass flick’, highlighting its grindhouse style, violent action, and dark humor. The plot follows Celeste, a retired Army sniper, who must protect her daughter after genetically engineered super soldiers escape from a secret military facility.

In addition to Arjona, the cast includes Dan Stevens.
