R.M.N. Ratings & Reviews
Kevin Ward
July 3, 2025
I only recently saw Cristian Mungiu’s 4 Months, 3 weeks, 2 days, but I really loved what he accomplished with that film. Set in Romania, utilizing several long takes, 4M3W2D tells a moving story that also highlights an important social issue. In some ways, R.M.N. Is very similar Set in small village in Transylvania Tackles, a local bakery has hired 3 Sri Lankan workers and this ripple causes a xenophobic wave to wash over the small village. The members of the catholic church urge the reverend to talk to the bakery owners to kick the workers out. Townspeople begin refusing to buy bread knowing that it was made with the hands of these Sri Lankans and it all culminates in this town hall where the town air their collective grievances in a 17 minute long take that is pretty incredibly realized. Along with the towns irrational fears of these outsiders, a bevy of other socioeconomic issues are raised as well. I want to mention (mild spoiler, I suppose), but there’s a plot thread that runs throughout the film regarding animals going missing, people seen hanging in the woods, and other strange happenings around the town. Because it’s set in Transylvania, I was 1000% convinced the final reveal would be a vampire movie. I’m not sure if that was intentional, but that expectation somewhat colored my view of this film. I think it’s best if you know up front that that is not where this film is headed. Worth checking out, though.
The Film Verdict
Alonso Duralde
Cristian Mungiu's tragicomic examination of EU economics, refugees, and Christmas delivers both as blistering social commentary and an unsparing portrait of community groupthink.
The Film Verdict
Jay Weissberg
A classic example of the director's dedication to naturalism and boasts several superb sequences, but it tries a bit too hard to encompass more topics than it can comfortably handle.
The Reveal
Scott Tobias
Though Mungiu takes a heavy hand with the symbolism, particularly in a head-scratcher of a final moment, his main characters remain irreducible in the face of a conflict that's seemingly cut-and-dried.
Wall Street Journal
John Anderson
What Mr. Mungiu puts together, in tandem with the ornate private lives of several main characters, is an anatomy of race hatred.
FilmWeek (LAist)
Claudia Puig
Once [it takes off], it's a fascinating slow burn that feels urgent.
Washington Post
Ann Hornaday
R.M.N. is as gripping and scrupulously humane as Mungiu's admirers have come to expect from an artist of supreme discipline and dramatic skill.
San Jose Mercury News
Randy Myers
Mungiu has put his hand on the pulse of a nation - and the globe. It's one of the best, most passionate films of the year and leaves you with to think about.
The New Republic
Lidija Haas
Cristian Mungiu's R.M.N. zooms in on the resentments and anxieties roiling Europe.
Chicago Reader
Noah Berlatsky
The film's rejection of bigotry is undermined by its own uncomfortable assumptions about whose story is worth telling and who gets to represent the community.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
Further evidence that [Mungiu] is one of the world's most interesting dramatists.
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
Mungiu's touch is so deft and his filmmaking so enlivening, and the villagers so laughable (if also scary!), that you never feel dragged down or punished by the ugliness.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
Mungiu does not offer an easy remedy for this toxic mess. How could he? But no one who makes a movie this vehement can fail to harbor a hope for what human beings, at their best, can be. R.M.N. is the work of an outraged idealist.
Los Angeles Times
Justin Chang
R.M.N. isn't a nativity story; it's a nativism story, a roving panorama of small-town hostility and a microcosm of tribalist enclaves the world over.
Vox
Alissa Wilkinson
A rigorous, naturalistic, and devastating cross-section of xenophobia.
IndieWire
David Ehrlich
There's a rare elegance to the way that Mungiu establishes the history of this place and its cultural divisions, and an ominousness to the way he anticipates its future.
Deadline Hollywood Daily
Todd McCarthy
It's a kind of close-up-and-personal look at contemporary issues in an area not often dramatized or in the news, which adds to the film's fresh and urgent feel.
TheWrap
Ben Croll
Whereas up until now Mungiu constructed his films around singular experiences, with "R.M.N." he takes a wider view, diagnosing an entire town (and the larger culture it represents) with a cancerous brain rot.
The Hollywood Reporter
Jordan Mintzer
A piercing slow-burn drama that's both layered and abstruse.
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
R.M.N. is a film almost perversely pregnant with sinister possibility, but it also reveals an unforgiving cynicism about the world as its social-realist strains become increasingly apparent.
