Leave your thoughts about Golden Exits.
| Film ThreatBill ArceneauxGolden Exits is a post love, post-passion and pro anti-depressant film. It is expressing its own curiosity at what it feels to be the inevitable conclusion of youth and living like there's no tomorrow. |
| Slant MagazineChuck BowenAlex Ross Perry's characters are shrewd enough to recognize the irrational contours of their lives, which they diagnose and chew over in some of the most inventive, twisty, and richly ironic dialogue in modern American cinema. |
| Village VoiceDanny KingThe more microscopic and incidental the movie gets — as in this candlelit conversation — the grander its cumulative force becomes. |
| AV ClubA.A. DowdIf Perry’s last film, the throwback psychodrama Queen Of Earth, used Bergman worship as a jumping off point for its own genre games, Golden Exits is just a tin-eared imitation: Interiors remade as a stilted exercise. |
| Los Angeles TimesJustin ChangThis exquisitely textured ensemble portrait is a gentler, more forgiving piece of work, not least because the filmmaker's jabs — and his sympathies, such as they are — feel more evenly distributed. |
| The New York TimesManohla DargisMr. Perry is such a good filmmaker that he can make the embarrassing and the unbearable insistently, fascinatingly engrossing (and often funny). |
| The Hollywood ReporterTodd McCarthyThe unstated angst, desire, suspicion, frustration and emotional turmoil is almost entirely expressed by Keegan DeWitt’s extraordinary musical score, which runs like an underground river through this elegant and supremely expressive gem of a film. |
| The AtlanticDavid SimsThis is a movie that deserves to be seen—it’s a work of maturity and confidence from one of the indie world’s best young directors. |
| Goethe-Institute Australien MagazineSarah WardMakes even the clumsiest encounters, of which there's many, seem naturalistic |
| VarietyGuy LodgeMany will accuse Perry of navel-gazing here, but that’s partly the point: Golden Exits means to frustrate, even to abrade, in its coolly articulate portrait of cosseted people who want for nothing and vaguely desire everything. |
