“It’s an easy film to cast aside if one is not up to the demands it makes to its audience.”
“There are a few creaking doors and camera tricks, but the gimmick has run its course.”
“Timely…A solid political spy movie, despite being gift wrapped a little too neatly.”
“It feels like a revelation when musicologists and fans dig up his whereabouts.”
“The kind of French fairy-tale that contains a nice combination of sweetness and sadness.”
“Pays more attention to the cattier aspects of the story in lieu of what should be most important: the music.”
“Phoenix’s take on the animalistic nature of man makes the film such a devastating one to shake.”
“Interesting enough to hold one’s attention, but there’s nothing truly memorable or noteworthy.”
“As a 106-minute feature doc, it spreads the narrative too thin and becomes repetitious.”
“Script takes some unique angles and allows the nerdy chemistry between its leads to play out naturally.”
“Rides hard, but without much direction. The whole thing plays out like a caffeinated cartoon.”
