Movie Reviews

Artforum - 10/10 by Jason AndersonIt may sound absurd to say that a seven-hour movie has hardly a wasted moment -- as famously insisted by Susan Sontag -- but Tarr's minimalism has maximum impact, especially when the film's satiric nature becomes more prominent in the final hour.
Village Voice - 10/10 by Ed HalterCritics have rightfully hailed Tarr as one of filmdom's criminally undersung geniuses.
Time Out - 10/10 by Geoff AndrewThis startling, apocalyptic work is sometimes over-extended, but it builds to a powerful, rhythmic climax of breakdown and withdrawal.
Combustible Celluloid - 9/10 by Jeffrey M. AndersonIt is a good movie. It's a great movie, in fact, one of the greatest of all movies.
Slant Magazine - 6/10 by Dan JardineThe food is delicious...but the portions are SO LARGE!
User Review - 10/10 by Anikó Sone word only: precious. (ah, and it's not 4hrs 10 mins long but 7.5 hrs.)
User Review - 10/10 by Derrick PIt's impossible not to be mesmerized by this film. Clocking in at over 7 hours in length, most people won't want to see it based on that alone. Those who aren't scared away by it's length will discover one of the finest achievements in cinema ever. Nobody can compose a long shot like Tarr can. He is a true genius.
User Review - 10/10 by sandy pThe 7.5 hours truly do fly. This film is incredibly beautiful, realistic, and endlessly captivating, the dancing scene, the doctor walking into 'town', the opening, and the doctor going to the bells - are some standout moments not just in satantango but in all of cinema.
User Review - 10/10 by Miles SA supreme piece of filmic art. at 7.5 hours, every second is essential. With every passing day this film grows in my mind. It's been over a year since I saw it, but it's still as vivid as when I sat in the theater enraptured by the transcendent imagery
User Review - 10/10 by Darvek RSatantango completely redefines cinema, as an art form & as human experience. B���©la Tarr, like Tarkovsky in previous decades has created a film experience that reminds us that cinema can once again ascend to the pinnacle of art - in any century. The director's first name is Bela (fucking ignorant Anglo-American fascists). To compare this film to your average Hollywood offering could be likened to the comparison of a great silent classic with your average shampoo commercial - this is where such things are quite erroneous.
