Days of Heaven Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
This is a movie made by a man who knew how something felt, and found a way to evoke it in us.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Wilmington
Perhaps the most typical example of a '70s American art film -- daring, romantic, rebellious but also filled with longing for the beauty of the past.
Slant Magazine
Nick Schager
To hell with equivocation or beating around the bush: Terrence Malick's 1978 Days of Heaven is the greatest film ever made.
Village Voice
Michael Atkinson
Almost incontestably the most gorgeously photographed film ever made.
Variety
Variety Staff
One of the great cinematic achievements of the 1970s.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
So beautiful that it touches heaven itself.
Salon.com
Andrew Ross
It is the closest to poetry in motion that I have ever seen.
New York Times
Harold C. Schonberg
Days of Heaven never really makes up its mind what it wants to be.
San Francisco Examiner
Wesley Morris
[A] masterpiece.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
Terrence Malick's ethereal, windswept ballad of love, lust, and nature's wrath remains an otherworldly triumph.
Cinema Sight
Wesley Lovell
"Days of Heaven" is a good movie with a lot of artistic elements, but at times feels like it is a little lost in its intended journey.
Buffalo Courier-Express
Jay Boyar
Days of Heaven has got to be the quietest spectacular ever filmed. With the confidence of a black-belt fighter, it doesn't flex its muscles or flaunt its power.
Hartford Courant
Malcolm Johnson
Days of Heaven is unquestionably the most visually ravishing film in a very long time... The images of Néstor Almendros, rhythmically assembled by editor Billy Weber, make Malick's film a sensualist's delight that one yearns to experience again.
Keith & the Movies
Keith Garlington
Alongside the unforgettable cinematography sits Ennio Morricone's soulful, aching score. It is impeccably in tune with Malick's vision and is among some of the late composer's most timeless work.
New Times (magazine)
Richard Corliss
Malick has controlled the film so precisely that an even slightly abrupt camera movement can produce a greater effect than any Peckinpah bloodbath.
Patheos
Eve Tushnet
I am a Malick skeptic but this was sharp, not self-indulgent, and achieved the "epic in a nutshell" feeling it was going for.
The MacGuffin
Allen Almachar
Malick crafted a film resembling that of a loving memory; like a time and place that has long passed that we wish to somehow return.
Saporta Report (Atlanta)
Eleanor Ringel Cater
Malick's magnum opus shimmers with the sensuality of a languorous summer afternoon.
Movie Mezzanine
Christopher Runyon
Ethereal, gorgeous, and evocative.
Common Sense Media
Brian Costello
Unforgettable 1978 love triangle drama includes violence.
