Community Reviews

Viewers find 'Demolition' a deeply emotional and unconventional exploration of grief, highlighted by Jake Gyllenhaal's compelling performance. The film's unique approach to depicting a man's internal chaos and journey towards emotional clarity through physical and emotional demolition resonates with many. Its blend of drama and humor, alongside non-traditional storytelling, adds layers of depth, making it both thought-provoking and touching. However, some find the narrative complex and the ending disappointing.

👍 Unique approach to grief

Loved it, no like, I LOVED IT. I think that’s one of the best movies that shows how grief can really be, not always you can cry about it,and anybody has his personal way. And hello? Can we talk about the deep metaphors that this movie has??? 😍😍
