Import Export Ratings & Reviews
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
The mood is as dismal as the weather in Import/Export, by Austrian auteur Ulrich Seidl.
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
Ulrich Seidl's Import Export is an unflinching, at times almost unbearably hard yet moral look at human exploitation.
Reeling Reviews
Robin Clifford
There is never a moment telegraphed in the story...keeping me interested and attentive throughout its 2 hour runtime.
Combustible Celluloid
Jeffrey M. Anderson
Import Export adds the welcome element of humanity to stand between the cruelty and humor.
Reeling Reviews
Laura Clifford
Eastern work ethic vs. the softer West. It is clear who Seidl sides with.
Slant Magazine
Joseph Jon Lanthier
The titular backslash of Import/Export turns out to be a vast geographical schism, crossed only intermittently by thin strands of mutual emotional anguish.
Village Voice
Scott Foundas
Seidl's film arguably offers the toughest (and toughest to stomach) portrait of individuals tempest-tossed by the currents of the new global economy.
Variety
Russell Edwards
Miserable but masterful.
The Hollywood Reporter
Ray Bennett
A tawdry little film ostensibly about the cultural clashes resulting from the proximity of former Soviet states, such as the Ukraine, to western nations such as Austria. There is a film to be made on the topic, but this isn't it.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
Though not as powerful or original as Dog Days, Import/Export, arguably the grimmest film in Cannes Fest this year, nerits attention for continuings to show Seidl's singular vision, here manifest in making East looks more like West and vice versa.
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
...in Seidl's universe, everybody is either miserable or cruel...
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
Occasionally drags, but offers a relentlessly stark glimpse into the morbid, tragic life of two lost souls who haven't found happiness or prosperity.
Boxoffice Magazine
Matthew Nestel
Technically, the sedate yet stunning 35mm camera is there for the ride and somehow never imposes or dominates the content. And the result is a true triumph.
