Movie Reviews

FILMINK (Australia) - 10/10 by Julian WoodYou either get it or you don't. For those who do, there is a life-affirming oddness and sweetness to be found.
Reverse Shot - 10/10 by Adam NaymanI'm sympathetic enough to Andersson's project and his sensibility to concede after several months of disappointed reflection that Pigeon's redundancy is merely a case of diminished artistic returns than a lazy repackaging job.
Dare Daniel - 10/10 by Daniel BarnesAndersson doesn't move the camera or cut within the sequences, instead emphasizing composition and interior space, and allowing us to dwell on the dark, occasionally horrifying absurdity of the scenes.
Grantland - 10/10 by Wesley MorrisIf you've ever wondered, "What if Ingmar Bergman directed Upright Citizens Brigade?" then Andersson is the director for you.
Irish Times - 10/10 by Tara BradyThe kitchen-sink realism is actually set-bound and masks sneaky absurdist tendencies. Still life? Hardly.
The Skinny - 10/10 by Chris FyvieProfound but never oppressive, (Andersson's) thought-provoking and ostensibly dark thesis is of civilisation trundling along in perennial fug.
Slant Magazine - 10/10 by Jake ColeThis is the first of Andersson's movies to actually feel like a full feature and not a linked anthology, yet it's the one that works the least well as a cohesive statement.
Daily Telegraph (UK) - 10/10 by Robbie CollinYou just have to watch it, then grab a net and try to coax your soul back down from the ceiling.
Hollywood Reporter - 10/10 by Deborah YoungThough it abounds in the kind of sardonic humor intrinsic to life’s absurdities, the film is rarely laugh-out-loud funny. In a nutshell, quiet desperation prevails.
Guardian - 10/10 by Peter BradshawWhat an incredible film-maker Andersson is - he has created an entirely unique epic movie-cycle that has to be seen to be believed.
