“An absorbing, beautifully crafted, thought-provoking addition to the new Hungarian cinematic wave.”
Screen International
“This is a world of brutality and fear from which the movie averts its gaze at key moments, but the chill is unmistakable.”
4/5 – Guardian
“This is a movie of virtuoso nihilism and scorn.”
5/5 – Guardian
“A film of brutal impact, withering wit and humanity. It deserves one of the highest accolades movies can receive: seeing it shakes you up, changes your vision.”
4/4 – Chicago Tribune
“If America’s nightmare self-image is Bad Lieutenant, this is the British answer: just as driven, visionary and self-destructive but not needing an excess of drugs or blood to showcase human horrors.”
4/5 – Empire Magazine
