“A truthful, tender masterpiece about how coming of age has no age-limit — love, for others and for ourselves, is what makes every risk and loss worthwhile.” 5/5 – Empire Magazine
“Trier has taken on one of the most difficult genres imaginable, the romantic drama, and combined it with another very tricky style – the coming-of-ager – to craft something gloriously sweet and beguiling.” 5/5 – Guardian
“The Worst Person in the World carries a shimmery feeling of definitiveness to it. It’s the rare piece of art actually invested in why an entire generation can seem so aimless and indecisive.” 5/5 – Independent (UK)
“Joachim Trier’s fifth feature is a sweet, sad, extremely funny character study that gets to the heart of how it feels to be on the cusp of true adulthood and completely ambivalent about it.” 5/5 – Little White Lies
“A visually majestic, significantly airborne journey over a wide variety of rivers around the world.” Deadline Hollywood Daily
“This sparklingly visual, Nat Geo-like tour of the world’s great waterways wants to dazzle us and shake us from our complacency and it manages both in style.” 4/5 – Time Out
“River does not request your attention. It demands your surrender. Flowing against the current of today’s commercial moviemaking, it’s out to slow the pulse rate and induce a trancelike state of reflection.” 4/5 – Sydney Morning Herald
