A waitress adds a special ingredient to an arrogant loan shark's meal in one of several tales dealing with extremes of human behavior.

Critics Consensus

Wickedly hilarious and delightfully deranged, Wild Tales is a subversive satire that doubles as a uniformly entertaining anthology film.

It's rare that a casting director's genius is so obvious, but Javier Braier pulls together a huge, disparate cast that is dopey, baiting, mean or gloriously evil at the right times.

It's an explosively funny film, made with great energy.

4.5/5

While the stories themselves are about the joys of losing control, their creator knows exactly what can be achieved with crafty pacing, masterly editing and a precisely controlled balance between the matter-of-fact and the shamelessly hysterical.

4.5/5

Not only does "Wild Tales" remains strong in people's minds but it also it anticipated certain actions and social behaviors that are today - unfortunately - part of Argentine daily life. [Full review in Spanish]

It offers pure escapism and some social criticism. [Full review in Spanish]

[Filmmaker Damián] Szifrón is all about emotion over reason. He just doesn’t find much to celebrate about passions unleashed. He does, however, find a mordant humor in it all, and he has the wit to pull it off.

From the wedding reception from hell, that concludes this very entertaining movie, to the road rage extreme that ends with both drivers nicely crisp, this is definitely recommended. There are family values, rounded to one million american dollars, and other positive elements. On Tubi.

Different, quirky and well worth watching. I only gave it four stars because the last two stories dragged on a bit.

I'll repeat what another critic wrote - dark humor at it's finest! Puts Hollywood to shame! I watched Wild Tales twice ... so good. Subtitles never bother me! Loved these 6 short stories in Wild Tales!

These 6 dark humor stories didn't do much for me. But they weren't terrible.

Ser argentino potencia el gusto por este plato que nos sirve Szifron, solamente uno siente que todo está bien del otro lado de la pantalla, no sobra ni falta nada. Para colmo están gigantes como Rita, Darin y Sbaraglia. De verdad que se pasan.
