Is cuckoo Worth seeing?

cuckoo Reviews are mixed but mostly positive, with a 78 percent critic score on Rotten Tomatoes and a 60 percent audience score. Mashable’s own reviewer Siddhant Adlakha calls it “incredibly strange and slyly funny.”

“Whatever the film’s more obvious horrors, whether its spooky atmosphere or its attempts at moral and emotional obscenities, they are all tied to Schafer’s increasing physical and emotional despondency,” Adlakha wrote in his review. “She doesn’t just save the film. She Is the film, which makes it all the more remarkable to watch.”

As Schäfer’s first leading role in a film, she is awesome. And its performance alone makes it worth a look. And of course there’s Dan Stevens.
