Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Bob Hope and Bing Crosby they're not. But director-actor Bouli Lanners and costar Fabrice Adde are on a comedy road to Eldorado, even if it takes place in a flat patch of mostly deserted Belgian landscape rather than some Hollywood Shangri-La.

fresh:
Eldorado was named best European film in the directors' fortnight last year at Cannes.

fresh:
Avoids a formulaic ending, reflecting instead on the impermanence of human connections and the inescapable baggage of the self.
– Andrea Gronvall,

fresh:
Eldorado is fueled by the chemistry between Lanners and Adde. They're so good together, they should make a sequel.

fresh:
A road movie that poignantly juggles absurdism and melancholy.
