Ratings & Reviews
The Reelgood Score is a comprehensive weighted index designed to evaluate movie & TV quality, deriving its value from a blend of Reelgood user engagement, external ratings metrics expressed through content popularity, and user feedback, including ratings such as "loved," "liked," and "disliked." The score is presented on a scale from 1 to 100, where 100 signifies content that is highly esteemed and positively rated within the community.
The reviews highlight that "They Live" has a strong message and features a fine lead performance by Piper. The film is described as funny, poignant, scary, and thrilling with a slow start but an explosive second half. However, it feels disjointed with random bouts of violence. The score is good but not Carpenter's best.
Infinitely better than expected. With a simple premise — glasses that reveal a hidden truth — the film critiques consumerism, conformity, environmental degradation, and media manipulation that underpin the capitalist social order. Roddy Piper shines, in gloriously cheesy fashion, as a reluctant hero, with iconic scenes and memorable lines. I'll never forget the quote: "I'm here to chew bubblegum and kick ass." Watch it, for the love of God.

Classic. Roddy Piper is great.
