Swan Song Reviews
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
How do you make a movie without having a single scene turn out well by accident? In this way, "Swan Song" may be worthy of future study.
Slant Magazine
Mark Hanson
The disconnect between the struggles of different generations of gay men is one of Swan Song's most joyful through lines.
AV Club
Katie Rife
Swan Song can be clumsy and sentimental at times, but that's sometimes the cost of earnestness.
Rolling Stone
Guy Lodge
It's tempting to say this sweet, shaggy film isn't quite worthy of him, but let's not be so hasty. Any film that invites the actor to do this much -- and to do most of it clad in a spearmint-colored women's safari suit -- deserves his good grace.
RogerEbert.com
Odie Henderson
Swan Song is an instance where I absolutely loved the character, but disliked how his story was ultimately told. Your mileage may vary.
Book & Film Globe
Sara Stewart
It's lovely to see Kier, a workhouse German character actor, in his first leading role in, apparently, 50 years.
Austin Chronicle
Jenny Nulf
While there's beauty in his encounters, the pacing is almost too quaint, often relying too much on Pat's effervescent charm in Swan Song's meandering script.
TheWrap
Dan Callahan
With his pellucid blue eyes and haughty presentation, Kier is so physically striking that he barely needs to do anything to hold the screen.
San Jose Mercury News
Randy Myers
Todd Stephens' film vacillates from the comic to the bittersweet with slow-gin ease, thanks to Kier, who's sassy and bitchy when he needs to be.
Los Angeles Times
Kimber Myers
A little too broad at times, "Swan Song" smartly balances its excesses with small, sweet moments that leave an impression...
FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)
Tim Cogshell
Udo Kier's best performance.
New York Times
Glenn Kenny
Kier is unfailingly captivating in the film, which makes it all the more bothersome that the film itself doesn't match him.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Alison Willmore
It's the 76-year-old Kier's tremendous performance that centers the movie.
Pajiba
Kristy Puchko
This film is magnificent celebration, a gay old time-literal and wonderful.
Hollywood Reporter
David Rooney
What's most notable about Todd Stephens' heartfelt salute to a real-life local legend is that the campiness of its outrageous plot becomes secondary to the soulful poignancy.
Variety
Peter Debruge
You've never seen Udo Kier like this before.
Loud and Clear Reviews
Zoë Rose Bryant
Swan Song's story may be simple, but Udo Kier's colorful and charismatic character work makes this eccentric escapade worth a watch, along with its touching, life-affirming themes.
Kermode and Mayo's Take (YouTube)
Mark Kermode
I was rather charmed by it. No, it doesn't change the world, no it doesn't do anything that's groundbreaking other than give Udo Kier the chance to show just how broad and sympathetic his range can be.
The Sunbreak (Seattle, WA)
Chase Hutchinson
It is a fleeting experience, one that is primarily bolstered by a committed central performance from Kier and not much else to remember.
Eye for Film
Jennie Kermode
Swan Song is, like many such airs, a little too slow and indulgent for its own good, sometimes meandering and losing its way, but Kier's magnetic performance, which won him Best Actor Awards in Dublin and Monte Carlo, holds it all together.
