WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

Jerry Hickfang (Reynolds) is a friendly and upbeat factory worker whose chipper attitude wins him a date with his office crush Fiona (Arterton).

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

The Voices is a darkly hilarious star turn from Ryan Reynolds, reminding the world he’s just as competent with comedy as he is for sinister and more dramatic turns.
