Critics Consensus: A Hologram for the King amiably ambles through a narrative desert, saved by an oasis of a performance from the ever-dependable Tom Hanks.

Reviews

Deep Focus Review

Brian Eggert

Tykwer and Hanks have made a film with familiar ideas and sentimentalities, all presented in a comical, romantic, and always enjoyable package that never overreaches to achieve its significance, even amid its many metaphors.

Joanne Laurier

Their distance from and contempt for the restive masses make Tykwer and his ilk retreat further into themselves.

Richard Crouse

Feels like two or more movies spliced together to form one whole.

This adaptation of the Dave Eggers novel is another in a growing line of underwhelming English language titles with conflicting tonal shifts from Tykwer.

This film is pleasant enough, but there were definitely elements that left a sour taste in my mouth. I fear that this cinema experience is going to prove forgettable, as the film was ultimately paper-thin and liable to fly away on a desert wind.
