How to Be

Art is a struggling musician who feels his life is going nowhere. After a failed attempt at suicide, he finds himself under the tutelage of a ghostly rock god named Dr. Death. Dr. Death promises to help Art achieve his dreams of stardom, but his methods are unorthodox and often lead to more chaos than success.

How to Be received a mixed-to-positive reception from critics, who often praised its quirky humor and the performances of its lead actors, particularly Robert Sheehan and Tom Hardy. However, some found the plot to be somewhat predictable and the tone inconsistent.

• Praised for its original concept and offbeat humor.
