Capsule Review: “Marty Supreme” Affirms Josh Safdie as a Filmmaker in Full Command

With his first solo directing credit since his debut feature, Josh Safdie's Marty Supreme reaches a tempo that would make even Terrence Fletcher flinch. Marty Supreme thrusts a kinetic, pulse pounding locomotive through your chest that is wrapped so tightly together by Timothee Chalamet's rockstar performance.

Chalamet will undoubtedly get his flowers, but here, Josh proves he's always had what it takes to command the screen flying solo. Tactile environments, gritty film photography, rich sound and a witty script take you scene to scene and make the 150 minute runtime fly by.

Marty Mauser is a fantastic protagonist that matches the charm of Connie Nikas and Howard Ratner from previous Safdie thrillers. If you took any enjoyment from the layers of Good Time and Uncut Gems, Marty Supreme will undoubtedly satisfy you.

Despite being a late 2025 entry, Marty Supreme will be in many lists and conversations of the year's best films. Definitely do not miss out seeing this rollercoaster on the big screen!
