RottenTomatoes.com, which tracks critical reviews, gives The Laundromat a score of just 44 out of a possible 100, based on a survey of 102 critics.
“The Laundromat misuses its incredible cast by taking a disappointingly blunt and unfocused approach to dramatizing the real-life events that inspired it,” the site writes, summarizing the reviews.
