Movie Reviews

Los Angeles Times - 10/10 by Justin ChangThe beauty of BPM, and what connects its hard-fought, well-remembered battles to those of the present, lies in its willingness to embrace life in all its messiness, its refusal to pretend that the personal isn't also political and vice versa. You may well weep at the end, but you might also feel like snapping your fingers.
The Guardian - 10/10 by Peter BradshawThis film has what its title implies: a heartbeat. It is full of cinematic life.
Village Voice - 10/10 by April WolfeCampillo’s focus on these charismatic characters, who bicker constantly but pick one another up the second they fall (sometimes literally), makes their present so thrilling that we don’t focus on what bleak future may await them.
The New York Times - 10/10 by A.O. Scottin spite of its historical specificity, BPM never feels like a bulletin from the past. Its immediacy comes in part from the brisk naturalism of the performances and the nimbleness and fluidity of the editing. The characters are so vivid, so real, so familiar that it’s impossible to think of their struggles — and in some cases their deaths — as unfolding in anything but the present tense.
Slate - 10/10 by Jeffrey BloomerBecause of its deliberate slow-building structure, BPM sneaks up on you, inundating with detail and method until it all piles up and topples you over. Yet even in despair, the movie is emotionally transformative.
Entertainment Weekly - 9/10 by Leah GreenblattThere’s something uniquely, transcendently beautiful in Campillo’s particular vision and the unhurried way he unfurls it.
New York Magazine (Vulture) - 9/10 by David EdelsteinBPM is vital for the history it depicts, but it’s also important in the here and now, as a testament to public action — even messy, not-always-effective public action.
Variety - 9/10 by Guy Lodge[A] sprawling, thrilling, finally heart-bursting group portrait of Parisian AIDS activists in the early 1990s.
Boston Globe - 9/10 by Ty BurrThe movie’s a social history, a love story, and a call to arms. It’s very sad and it’s very good.
Rolling Stone - 9/10 by Peter TraversAt the end, with Sean's condition scarily deteriorating, the raw and riveting BPM musters the emotional power to floor you.
