Lake Tahoe Reviews
Seattle Times
Tom Keogh
Fortunately, Eimbcke's laconic if fanciful storytelling strengths ring more true than his somewhat artificial and hackneyed visual style, which includes a penchant for lengthy wide-angle shots that make the world look like a feverishly alien place.
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
With Lake Tahoe, Mexican filmmaker Fernando Eimbcke proves himself adept at turning a blank screen into a work of art.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
So different from the usual fare that it might have arrived from another galaxy.
Playback:stl
Sarah Boslaugh
[Lake Tahoe is] a small, calm movie that will take you into another world...
Lessons of Darkness
Nick Schager
Eimbcke's Jarmusch-ian comedy is laced with something stronger.
Boston Globe
Laura Bennett
It ultimately sags under the weight of its bloated silences and stagnant story line.
Filmwell
Jeffrey Overstreet
[Eimbcke finds] warmth, humor and grace in these ragged environments. Once we learn the cause of Juan's malaise, images we've already seen take on extraordinary significance.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
An offbeat droll black comedy that worked for me in the Zen way it made its seemingly simple tale poignant and compelling in such a unique way.
Filmcritic.com
Chris Cabin
has an even less assuming sense of comedy to it but is far more consistent in its gags
Boxoffice Magazine
Richard Mowe
Could be quirky enough to ensnare devotees of indie film.
MovieMartyr.com
Jeremy Heilman
Lake Tahoe confirms Embicke as a promising young talent, but simultaneously raises some worries that he's only able to offer a small, singular form of pleasure.
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
A simply complex, intelligent and quietly absorbing drama with just the right blend of humor, tenderness and cinma vrit realism.
Combustible Celluloid
Jeffrey M. Anderson
Eimbcke's world -- sun-baked and lazy and almost devoid of activity or adults -- may seem aimless and pointless, but he manages a delightfully complete wrap-up and payoff.
Slant Magazine
Fernando F. Croce
Eimbcke has an undeniable gift for deftly doleful wavelengths.
Village Voice
Aaron Hillis
Coming down from the Saturday sugar rush of his 2006 comedy Duck Season, Mexican auteur Fernando Eimbcke's lovely, Yucatn-set dramedy drifts by on a similar deadpan wave of static vignettes and lingering pauses that must be 10 months pregnant.
Bay Area Reporter
David Lamble
Fans of Fernando Eimbcke's bittersweet-funny first feature Duck Season will love this droll follow-up featuring the insane misadventures of a tall teen...
Oregonian
Stan Hall
If you're patient -- the beautifully composed wide-angle camerawork helps -- the reason for the protagonist's down-in-the-mouth behavior emerges, and finally from the languor comes a sweet little payoff.
New York Press
David Berke
If a dramatic action occurs in Lake Tahoe, a new film from Mexican director Fernando Eimbcke, you probably won't see it.
