Leviathan Ratings & Reviews
Film Comment Magazine
Chris Chang
Alert the genre police: Leviathan is the best horror film of the year.
Boston Globe
Peter Keough
With its repetitive images of netted and gutted sea life, the film suggests that the beast is the human hunter himself.
LarsenOnFilm
Josh Larsen
If you get into the rhythm of Leviathan, the experience can be at turns transcendent and overwhelming.
Chicago Sun-Times
Bill Stamets
Radical experiential/experimental video of bloody viscera and abstract beauty. Embedded/embodied lens as in Brakhage's "The Governor" and Geyrhalter's "Our Daily Bread."
PopMatters
Sarah Boslaugh
Rather than being taught a lesson or being rallied to a cause, Leviathan offers you the opportunity to leave your ordinary world for 87 minutes and plug yourself into the world of a fishing crew...
Reeling Reviews
Robin Clifford
...there is very little time (if any) spent on actually teaching me anything at all about the hard life of a North Atlantic fisherman.
Reeling Reviews
Laura Clifford
The prow of the boat, slicing through the waves, suggests the Leviathan as a metaphor for earth, a neverending journey of labor and death and those that scavenge at its edges.
Los Angeles Times
Gary Goldstein
More an accumulation of often indefinable images than any kind of even remotely traditional feature, the documentary "Leviathan" proves a strange and unsatisfying endurance test.
Cinema Signals
Jules Brenner
I haven't felt this drenched in seawater since my last scuba dive.
Seattle Times
John Hartl
Gradually you realize you're witnessing a nonlinear entertainment that's setting its own rules, and you'll either go with the flow or take an early leave.
Monsters and Critics
Ron Wilkinson
One of the sparest documentaries ever produced, this film takes the audience into the very heart of mechanized food production.
ReelTalk Movie Reviews
Donald J. Levit
A very little of 'Leviathan' goes a long way, one gets the point, and essentially what are repetitions go overboard and for too many frames.
New York Post
Farran Smith Nehme
The adventurous souls who stick with it ... will find head-spinning images and a cumulative impact that does, in fact, amount to a story.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
[It] offers not information but immersion: 90 minutes of wind, water, grinding machinery and piscine agony.
NPR
Stephanie Zacharek
As Leviathan trundles on, it's hard to really know what Castaing-Taylor and Paravel are trying to say. There's no strict narrative here.
AV Club
Noel Murray
Leviathan is an immersive experience, plunging viewers into darkness and chaos, amid a rush of vivid color and rapid movement.
Village Voice
Melissa Anderson
End of days or the beginning of new ways of seeing?
The Hollywood Reporter
Stephen Dalton
Leviathan is an immersive examination of a highly mechanized industrial process, the men who work at it and the thousands of poor fish who cross their path.
Variety
Boyd van Hoeij
The pic contains several striking visuals that range from disturbing to beautiful.
Slant Magazine
Calum Marsh
Leviathan is a titanic achievement, a visceral overload whose impact registers immediately and with great force.
