Umm, sorry, but did this guy not see The Killing Of A Sacred Deer? Lion? The Beguiled? Where have they been...!? It seems like Kidman is winning back respect from each contingent of the film community. Last year she won over the female base contingent. This year she's winning over straight male genre/ cult film fans who forgot about her and only rate her work in the others and eyes wide shut. Later on this year hopefully she has enough in Aquaman to win the mass comic book fans over lol.

Rather positive. 3/5 but cpuld easily be 4/5. Review is like a warning - good but not very mainstream movie:) www.theupcoming.co.uk/2018/10/15/london-film-festival-2018-destroyer-review/The hype around the release of this film has been formidable, with most reports and previews focusing mostly on the surprising appearance of Nicole Kidman – and it is true, it is alarming how different the costume and makeup team have made her look, but this is made even more effective by the clear investment the actress has made into the part, arguably more than ever before. It makes a refreshing change to see a character with so much power at the forefront of a noir picture, and the writing from Matt Manfredi and Phil Hay makes Erin a very complex character in an interesting web of themes. If movie-fans are going watch Destoryer for Nicole Kidman, then they will be blown away by her work. If they want a racy gun-slinging detective thriller they will get that, but should be prepared to take a seat and invest full focus in order to follow what is a noir picture that becomes an investigation into human relationships and self-management.

Rave:) www.riotmaterial.com/nicole-kidman-destroyer/Kidman’s chiseled an incredible career by giving verve and depth to glamor girls and prim mothers. But here, Kusama gives her a rare role for an actress. Lumbering about in a shabby leather jacket, ill-fitting jeans, a shaggy afterthought of a haircut, and make-up intended to weather her famous face, Kidman is transformed. Her Bell is the kind of sneering rogue-cop whose long been played by stars like Clint Eastwood, Charles Bronson, and Mel Gibson. But Kusama and Kidman reject the allure of this American archetype and the vicarious thrills of revenge fantasy. Instead, they offer a ruthlessly gritty and riveting thriller that pulls no punches.
Kidman’s cop has the swagger of a broken-hipped horse. Her voice is a cracked snarl. She carries with her an air of defeat and stale beer. She wins no one over with charm, but instead employs guilt, threats, bribes, and when that fails spiteful favors or a brutal pistol-whipping. Her methods are messy. Her mistakes are grim. Her journey is slippery, seedy, and disturbing. And Kidman slays every frame.

She looks like a pro, she;s come along way and she doesnt look horribly distracting? I think she looks fine, not like herself.

www.spoilertv.com/2018/10/movies-lff-2018-destroyer-review.htmlDestroyer should enter Kidman into the already competitive Oscar-race for best actress even if it is unlikely the film will be in with a shot at a best picture nomination. This is one of her best performances to date - which is saying something, given her lengthy career in the past. And her collaboration with Kusama is definitely a welcome career move that should hopefully lead to similiar roles in the future. If you like modern noir crime thrillers or are just here to watch Kidman shine, then this is very much the film for you. Don't go expecting anything spectacular, but there's enough there to love.

One Room with a View oneroomwithaview.com/2018/10/16/destroyer-lff-2018-review/RATING: 4/5 Nicole Kidman blows everything else out of the water – the confidence in her performance is astounding. While no stranger to her darker side, she goes for broke here, taking antihero to the absolute extreme. It’s not just a physical transition – Erin Bell is rotting from the inside out, and it never feels like Kidman is just hiding behind the makeup or aping some Captain Sparrow-esque caricature. Kidman swallows Destroyer up and spits out the bones, although she leaves just enough scraps to let her costars have some fun too. Bradley Whitford and Tatiana Maslany are particularly abrasive in their smaller roles, but also find the empathy in unlikability that is necessary for Destroyer to work
