Il Grido Ratings & Reviews
National Review
Armond White
Decades later, Il Grido's hard-edged sexuality seems as startling as it is unillusioned.
Esquire Magazine
Dwight MacDonald
That one of the most subtle and fastidious directors of today could fall into such bathos shows either the perils of doctrine for the artist or that potential for melodrama that seems to exist in even the most talented film directors. Or both.
Chicago Reader
Dave Kehr
A bleak and desolate film, directed by Michelangelo Antonioni with an eye to the emotive powers of the barren landscape.
Village Voice
Leslie Camhi
The camera's spare, stunning compositions and the tone of loss and disaffection anticipate Antonioni's later, brilliant explorations of bourgeois anomie.
TV Guide
The two American actors, Cochran and Blair, seem to lack any understanding of the director's methods and deliver the least satisfying performances to be found in any Antonioni film.
Classic Film and Television
Michael E. Grost
Visually brilliant drama.
New York Times
A.H. Weiler
A fairly lucid story that puts no undue strain on a viewer's imagination or intellect.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Steve Cochran gives a superb performance.
Filmcritic.com
Christopher Null
One of many duds from Michelangelo Antonioni.
ToxicUniverse.com
Jeremiah Kipp
The beautifully desolate cinematography is rich in its gray color palette.
AV Club
Keith Phipps
If Antonioni's assuredness isn't yet in place, Il Grido remains a key transitional work, with remarkable photography, fluid camerawork, and a typically unforgettable finale ranking among its most notable virtues.
