Movie Reviews

Audiences Everywhere - 8/10 by Nathanael HoodJulio Quintana's The Vessel is a gorgeous, lyrical film about faith that's more interested in questions than in answers.
Austin Chronicle - 8/10 by Steve DavisThe Vessel speaks eloquently. It’s a testament to the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things unseen.
Spirituality and Practice - 8/10 by Frederic and Mary Ann BrussatA stirring parable about the spiritual transformation of a community after a tragedy.
New York Times - 7/10 by Andy WebsterThe Vessel is a modest, but not maudlin, parable of hope about mustering the strength to vigorously plunge again into life’s uncertainties after a devastating loss.
Los Angeles Times - 7/10 by Gary GoldsteinIt’s a strange brew: stark yet beautiful, urgent yet dreamlike.
Variety - 7/10 by Nick SchagerCuban-American writer-director Julio Quintana’s feature debut has an understated formal loveliness that helps offset its more heavy-handed allegorical inclinations.
The Film Stage - 7/10 by Brian RoanAs powerfully felt and gorgeously realized as anything one may see on screen this year.
Georgia Straight - 6/10 by Janet SmithThe Vessel is a gorgeously lensed parable. It's just that its messages and symbolism are so heavy-handed, so laden with biblical meaning, they're never left to work their own miracles.
The Hollywood Reporter - 6/10 by Frank ScheckFilmed in a gorgeous, dreamlike style and Infused with heavy doses of mysticism and allegory, The Vessel is an impressive effort that loses some of its impact, however, for being so derivative.
Village Voice - 5/10 by Simon AbramsQuintana's emphasis on Jungian dream logic gives his otherwise spartan parable a compelling mythic dimension. The Vessel may bring Malick to mind, but it also feels like a major work by an exciting new talent.
