Movie Reviews

Time Out - 10/10 by Joshua RothkopfIf you can stomach the fear, go. Confident hands created this film. Its nightmare lingers for weeks.
The Blue Lenses - 10/10 by Alexandra Heller-NicholasThe Eyes of My Mother is an insightful, meaningful, and exquisitely beautiful horror film, and undoubtedly one of the genre's most important offerings of 2016.
El antepenúltimo mohicano - 10/10 by José MartínA film with beautiful aesthetics, although it tells a terrible story with a disconcerting naturalness. [Full review in Spanish]
Reel Talk Online - 10/10 by Candice FrederickWith The Eyes of My Mother, Pesce explores the nature of human instinct and arrested development in a way that is uncomfortable to watch yet immersive just the same.
CineVue - 10/10 by Martyn ConterioA film to chill the spine and haunt the mind, Nicolas Pesce has achieved cinematic glory.
Cinemalogue.com - 9/10 by Todd JorgensonWhile the deliberately paced film subverts genre expectations with some stylish visual flourishes, any deeper meaning behind the nonchalant gore and the psychological effects on its protagonist remains muddled.
Variety - 9/10 by Guy LodgePesce’s spare script doesn’t seek to obscure, but its quiet, matter-of-fact handling of drastic dramatic events will catch some off-guard.
Consequence of Sound - 9/10 by Justin GerberThough it doesn’t end with quite the punctuation it deserves, The Eyes of My Mother is a beautiful nightmare from start to finish.
Sight and Sound - 9/10 by Anton BitelPesce's colourless presentation and elliptical editing offer a blinkered perspective on events which replicates both the protagonist's ocular obsessions and the mutual incomprehension of Francisca and those she encounters.
Eye for Film - 9/10 by Jennie KermodeThe Eyes Of My Mother is melancholy and poetic, a picture of loneliness, its suffocated passions escaping only in the thundering vocals that accompany the closing credits.
