Where to Watch Remarkably Bright Creatures
- Brian FactuntMay 8, 2026not gonna watch this boring ass movie but i will give 5 stars for hiring doctor octopus to voice an octopus
- P & JMay 25, 2026I’m old, and I’ve seen a lot of movies, so pay attention: This one ranks up there with the best STORIES I’ve seen told in a movie. I’m sick of explosions, super heroes, remakes, and gratuitous sex. This has none of that. Just a sweet story about two broken people, the perceptive octopus who recognized what they had in common, and how he brought them together. Definitely in my top 25 now, and over time it could creep into the top 10.

- hjbiscAugust 22, 2026This movie was so good! It has no right being a part of modern cinema. It feels like a plot that jumped straight out of the 90’s and early 2000’s and revised all the wall phones (keeping one 😉) with cellular devices, modern love, and an elderly Sally Field. The character arcs of every single character is astonishing to be crammed into a 1hr and 53m film. Especially Marcellus! I found myself rolling with laughter at his every line. The callback to “There is a right way and a wrong way to do things” at the end really hit me. I was hoping throughout the whole film that they’d have something like this. I 100% recommend if you want a lighthearted, yet deeply rooted and emotional modern age classic.
