Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
At once hilarious and serious, cruel and tender, and bristling with vitality, Holy Smoke is the right movie for the millennium, envisioning new possibilities in the way people view and relate to one another.
– Kevin Thomas,
Los Angeles Times,
15 Aug 2002
fresh:
It's brave, adventurous, refreshingly frank -- qualities also marking the performances, particularly those of the leads.

fresh:
Ms. Winslet is, by contrast, champagne and caviar for moviegoing grown-ups with good taste.
– Andrew Sarris,
New York Observer,

fresh:
Original in every sense, this often difficult film about family, relationships, sexual politics, spiritual questing, faith and obsession further explores the director's abiding fascinations in excitingly unconventional terms.

rotten:
