Jallikattu Ratings & Reviews
Filmmaker Magazine
Vadim Rizov
Jallikattu pauses in its dialogue scenes but stays lively, in part thanks to an extremely loud score from Prashant Pillai full of chanting and drums. It's either energizing or numbing depending on your taste-for me, it was a real boost ...
Awards Daily
Frank J. Avella
This is pulsating, timely moviemaking that manages to warn about human nature, greed and the dangers of an angry mob.
Film Threat
Brian Shaer
Jallikattu is a unique and operatically violent movie. What the plot lacks in narrative cohesion, it certainly makes up for in startling image and thought.
Observer
Siddhant Adlakha
The film spans about a day and runs a mere 90-minutes, but in that time, it undergoes a stunning metamorphosis, from a naturalistic depiction of rural Kerala to a winking, expressionistic nightmare.
The Hollywood Reporter
Deborah Young
Amorphous violence explodes in a darkly unsettling tale.
We Live Entertainment
Aaron Neuwirth
I was not prepared for how mesmerizing this film in terms of the cinematic delivery of such a primal story.
Film School Rejects
Rob Hunter
Less of an 'animal attack' movie, and more of an 'animal trying to get the hell away from people for obvious reasons' movie.
Austin Chronicle
Matthew Monagle
The challenge for the audience is to simply keep up. Jallikattu is such sensory overload - containing so many crowded images and rhythmic cuts - that we almost need a little distance to fully appreciate what the filmmakers have pulled off.
Film Inquiry
Gus Edgar
Keralan director Lijo Jose Pellissery takes to his hometown for Jalikattu, a buffalo-on-the-run bloodbath that functions as both a gentle probing of tradition and a rancorous take-down of masculinity.
Variety
Jessica Kiang
Consider the idiom "bull in a china shop" put on notice, while "buffalo in an Indian village" waits, hoofs stomping, in the wings.
Slashfilm
Matt Donato
Jallikattu is alluring, unconscionable, and impossible to avert your eyes from - whether you're engaged with it or hating every second.
HighDef Digest
Deirdre Crimmins
The brilliance of Jallikattu is the coexistence of its diametrically opposing natures. It has a simple story, but it's excruciatingly complex in execution. It's rural, but still crowded with people. Most of all, it's both beautiful and violent.
The Film Stage
Jared Mobarak
[A] sensory crescendo [that] will have you staring wide-eyed at the screen once the orgiastic rampage takes hold to burn civility to the ground-if any was even left.
The Lonely Film Critic
Tomas Trussow
What the film lacks is enough discipline to keep the viewer emotionally immersed with the same visceral intensity as its formal tumult.
