Movie Reviews

Reviews:
"[A] skillfully crafted, surreally told tale of man and nature -- or in this case, woman and autre -- but one with more emotional depth and sharper political undertones." - 05/12/2018 Hollywood Reporter


"Is there anything rarer than an intelligent feel-good film that knows how to tackle urgent global issues with humor as well as a satisfying sense of justice? Look no further than WOMAN AT WAR..." - 05/12/2018 Variety


3.5 stars out of 4 -- "A thoughtful and dynamic blend of genres, Benedikt Erlingsson’s contemporary environmental fable WOMAN AT WAR continually thrills with a side of laughs." - 03/01/2019 RogerEbert.com


"Approaching weighty themes with a very light touch, Benedikt Erlingsson’s WOMAN AT WAR is an environmental drama wrapped in whimsical comedy and tied with a bow of midlife soul-searching." - 02/28/2019 New York Times


"WOMAN AT WAR is something wonderful. Made with a finely honed sense of the ridiculous as well as unexpected emotion, this modern Icelandic saga is completely serious about its wall-to-wall wackiness, which of course is the only way to go." - 02/28/2019 Los Angeles Times


3 stars out of 5 -- "Benedikt Erlingsson’s offbeat comedy is built on an imaginative script, one that flirts with extreme measures you’d expect from sci-fi dystopia." - 05/01/2019 Empire


4 stars out of 5 -- "[T]here is a warmth, wit and wisdom that transcend national and cultural boundaries, making this a truly universal treat." - 05/05/2019 The Guardian
