Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Much of the film means to be uproariously emotional, but the events we see seldom justify all the overwrought reactions.
– Vincent Canby,

fresh:
Suffused with Kieslowski's dry wit and intelligence, this early feature provides an excellent introduction to his work.
– Jonathan Rosenbaum,

fresh:
While Camera Buff lacks some of the artistry evident in the director's later projects, it's worth seeing not only as an example of Kieslowski's early work, but as an important film in its own right.
