Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
The late director Aleksei Guerman's last film is a grandly arbitrary carnival of neo-medieval depravity. It's also a mudpunk allegory of Russian barbarism and backwardness.
– Richard Brody,

fresh:
The roiling setting alone enforces a medieval mind-set that feels genuine: brutal yet often jovially rambunctious and crude, pre-psychological in its sense of the cheapness of life and yet rich with local custom and detail.
– Nicolas Rapold,
New York Times,

fresh:
It is grotesque and deranged and Hieronymus Bosch-like, and damn if it isn't a bona fide vision-but of what, exactly?
– Ignatiy Vishnevetsky,
AV Club,

fresh:
An epic lurch through the circle of the Inferno Dante left out, where we are buried chin-deep in wet manure.
