Movie Reviews

The List - 10/10 by Emma SimmondsIt seems fitting that every frame should be rich with sorrow.
Guardian - 10/10 by Peter BradshawWhat a mysterious film it is, with much to perplex and even exasperate, but much to fascinate as well.
Daily Telegraph (UK) - 10/10 by Robbie CollinAlmost half a century on, Red Desert remains a film of rare beauty and brooding erotic intensity.
Combustible Celluloid - 10/10 by Jeffrey M. AndersonThe effect is perhaps even more astounding than in his black and white films. Now, more so than using just shapes and spaces, Antonioni now gets to play with bright colors, and lack of colors.
Village Voice - 9/10 by Michael AtkinsonSwoon, ye 21st-century philistines, before the cataract of existential glamour that is Antonioni's Il deserto rosso,
Time Out - 9/10 by Geoff AndrewPerhaps the most extraordinary and riveting film of Antonioni's entire career; and correspondingly impossible to synopsise.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 9/10 by Dennis SchwartzFantastically haunting psychological drama.
Classic Film and Television - 8/10 by Michael E. GrostBrilliant film with remarkable photography, color and originality.
Daily Express (UK) - 8/10 by Allan HunterA strikingly original, melancholy work executed with painterly precision and still one of the more underrated films from this innovative director.
Little White Lies - 8/10 by Andrew SchenkerRed Desert is Antonioni's clearest, most striking statement of purpose - and one of cinema's great films.
