| eFilmCritic.comRob GonsalvesI cannot but applaud a filmmaker who uses cinema with love and passion and sincerity, and never mind whether we can sit on the sidelines like nerds and identify her influences. |
| Today's Zaman (Turkey)Emine YildirimAmirpour's debut feature is striking and excellent, though sometimes too self-congratulatory and too much in love with its cultural references. But one thing is for sure; Amirpour is on her way to becoming a great director. |
| GQ Magazine [UK]Helen O'HaraShot entirely in Farsi, in a desert town in California, it is both realistic and fantastical, foreign and familiar. |
| Observer (UK)Mark KermodeAmirpour never lets a message get in the way of a good tune, taking palpable delight in spinning the reels like a cinematic DJ, keeping the crowd on their toes, wrong-footing their dance moves. |
| Eye for FilmJennie KermodeAn astonishing début that marks out Ana Lily Amirpour as an extraordinary directorial talent. |
| HeyUGuysJon LyusAmirpour has found the sweet spot between romance, horror, social commentary and monochrome cool. |
| La JornadaCarlos BonfilEqual parts a fantastic tale, noir cinema and graphic novel, the story is primarily and allegory for romance. [Full review in Spanish] |
| Salon.comAndrew O'HehirA strange and gorgeous and haunting film that brings the indie aesthetic of the mid-1980s into a context that feels both timeless and highly contemporary. |
| Arizona RepublicBill GoodykoontzA Girl Walks Home Alone at Night is a terrific film, if you give yourself to it. You should, because, with Amirpour's blending of influences and pop culture, she has created a true original. |
| The Hollywood ReporterBoyd van HoeijBeguiling in its strangeness, yet also effortlessly evoking recognizable emotions such as loneliness and the feeling of being stuck in a dead-end town and life, this moody and gorgeous film is finally more about atmosphere and emotions than narrative -- and none the worse for it. |
