Movie Reviews

Washington Post - 10/10 by Michael O'SullivanA movie of such dark, smoldering intensity that it's easy to forget that half of it takes place in near darkness.
DCist - 10/10 by Pat PaduaA profoundly beautiful film that revels in the lyrical and the mundane, and suggests that art does transcend the futility of existence.
Jam! Movies - 10/10 by Liz BraunStories are told, told again later, embellished. Slowly but surely, each of the characters becomes three dimensional and early impressions change and change again.
Time Out - 10/10 by Dave CalhounCeylan's visual style is less heightened, more down-to-earth than the more stylised 'Three Monkeys', but still some of the night-time scenes look like careful paintings, such is the precision of their lighting and composition.
Little White Lies - 10/10 by David JenkinsCeylan has forged a new template for the police procedural.
Guardian - 10/10 by Peter BradshawWith his two early features, "Distant" (2002) and "Climates" (2006), Ceylan has showed himself a superb film-maker. This is his greatest so far.
Minneapolis Star Tribune - 10/10 by Colin CovertIt is epic in its aims and achievements yet modest in its resources: some superb actors, stunning landscapes and a resonant, understated script.
Financial Times - 10/10 by Nigel AndrewsIf you're in a hurry, don't go near this film. If you're not in a hurry, don't go anywhere else. It could change your life.
LarsenOnFilm - 10/10 by Josh Larsen...as if a lush landscape painting is being invaded by the cinema.
CineVue - 10/10 by Daniel GreenThose that can embrace its patient, visually-enthralling style and sparse, yet affecting dialogue will be rewarded with a film of grand ambition, delving deep into the human condition and questioning our very moral fabric.
