Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
With Hadewijch, [Dumont] endorses something like the Dardenne brothers' rugged, squalid secular humanism, offering the barrier-breaking embrace as vague alternative to Despair, Church, or Capital.

It's a beautiful and mysterious work with a rhythm all its own.

Should delight Dumont's fans. For others, it will take a bit of getting used to. The effort will prove to be worthwhile.

fresh:
Dumont, as if trying to make sure nobody wants to see his movie, named it after a female Flemish poet from the 13th century, but - please read the rest of this sentence - the movie is set in modern times.

rotten:
You either go with Dumont's arrogant series of conundrums and paradoxes or - as I do - you see them as mere meaningless 'effects' with little rhyme and no reason.
