Movie Reviews

Wall Street Journal - 9/10 by Steve DollarA landmark of visionary filmmaking pitched somewhere between magic ritual and surreal burlesque.
Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN) - 9/10 by John BeifussSo loaded with symbols and religious references that the frames of the films flash by as if Jodorowsky were shuffling a deck of his beloved tarot cards...
The A.V. Club - 9/10 by Noel MurrayWitty, disgusting, eye-popping, and incomprehensible, The Holy Mountain is every bit as pop-philosophical as Jodorowsky's earlier work, but it also contains original visual ideas nearly every 30 seconds, from frogs in armor to crucifixes made out of painted bread.
New York Times - 9/10 by Matt Zoller SeitzMr. Jodorowsky’s movie is a dazzling, rambling, often incoherent satire on consumerism, militarism and the exploitation of third world cultures by the West. It unfurls like a hallucinogenic daydream.
Boston Globe - 8/10 by Ty BurrHalfway through we're introduced to nine industrialists and politicians -- they narrate their heinous biographies in Godardian voiceover -- who embark up the title mountain to become immortal. Dude.
The Guardian - 8/10 by Peter BradshawA plumply overripe fruit of the counterculture, dripping with the juices of spiritual rebellion, semi-comic posturing, consciousness-raising and all-around freakiness.
Slant Magazine - 8/10 by Chris CabinThe Holy Mountain is nothing if not exuberant while cartwheeling its way through the cosmos and back through the non sequitur-strewn plains and deserts, towns and cities, ridges and ranges of Mexico.
Chicago Tribune - 8/10 by Michael WilmingtonWith Jodorowsky's meaning somewhat opaque, it's slightly tedious going, but you certainly get plenty to look at.
Los Angeles Times - 8/10 by Kevin ThomasMore than three decades later, Jodorowsky’s vision of chaos has acquired a powerful aura of prophecy.
Toronto Star - 8/10 by Geoff PevereNeither for the faint of heart or the linear of thinker, The Holy Mountain qualifies both as a fascinating period relic and an enduringly transfixing jaw-dropper.
