Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Crazy Horse could be condensed to its advantage.
– Stanley Kauffmann,
The New Republic,
19 Jun 2013
fresh:
The idea is to be erotic, seductive, but often, through Wiseman's unforgiving lens, the effect is more anatomical, aloof, amusing.
– Steven Rea,
Philadelphia Inquirer,
30 Mar 2012
fresh:
If there's one thing that's both surprising and predictable about "Crazy Horse" it's how thoroughly unsexy the film is.
– Tom Long,
Detroit News,
23 Mar 2012
fresh:
Wiseman is a still-prolific luminary of what has been dubbed "direct cinema," a documentary style in which the director intrudes as little as possible and conducts no on-camera interviews.
– Joe Williams,
St. Louis Post-Dispatch,

fresh:
If nothing else, you'll surely relish the extravagant rhetoric used by Ali Mahdavi, the club's artistic director, to describe what is basically a tasteful nudie revue.
