Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
There are no characters to care about or remember afterward -- just a lot of flashy technique involving decor, some glib allegorical flourishes, and the obligatory studied film-school weirdness.
– Jonathan Rosenbaum,
Chicago Reader,
5 Jun 2007
fresh:
With their detached, sardonic and decidedly sick slant, Jeunet and Caro have served up a burnt-to-a-crisp feast.
– Duane Byrge,
Hollywood Reporter,
5 Jun 2007
fresh:
Delicatessen is a fearsomely intense movie that mixes moods with formidable assurance.
– Michael Wilmington,
Los Angeles Times,
21 Nov 2013
fresh:
All of this is handled in a breezy, off-handed, nutsy manner, as the superb cast combines to help bring it off.
– Clifford Terry,
Chicago Tribune,
21 Nov 2013
fresh:
With its molelike inhabitants, its sprawling war between flesh-eaters and lentil-men, its achingly sweet love story and surrealist blend of dusty antiquities and 21st-century gizmos, Delicatessen is indescribably wild.
– Steven Rea,
Philadelphia Inquirer,
