Northfork Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
Stark, mysterious, and often weirdly funny.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
Funny and alive and visually delightful.
Decent Films
Steven D. Greydanus
The jokey elements are artificial, and strike a note of banality that undermines whatever sense of transcendence the film might be attempting in its stark, sweeping cinematography and mystical, dreamy milieu.
Arizona Republic
Bill Muller
A compelling juxtaposition of the poignant and the bizarre, a movie that tosses moviemaking rules into the nearest Cuisinart.
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Eleanor Ringel Cater
For those on its peculiar wavelength, everything fits. For those who aren't, it's a painful piece of self-impressed drivel. Either way, you'll know you've been to the movies.
Denver Post
Michael Booth
It is impossible to describe all the rich layers of Northfork, clearly an exhausting labor of love for the Polish brothers who wrote, produced, directed and star in the mystical movie.
Houston Chronicle
Eric Harrison
A story so tender, so achingly sweet, you'll forgive the rest of the film its amorphousness.
Seattle Times
John Hartl
Impenetrable.
Detroit News
Tom Long
Too self-indulgent.
Detroit Free Press
Terry Lawson
Though the Polish brothers are saying good-bye to the heartland with the conclusion of Northfork, you may feel as if you've beat them out of town.
Dallas Morning News
Gary Dowell
A powerful, surreal fable, one that requires a small amount of patience from the viewer in exchange for a moving experience.
Washington Post
Ann Hornaday
Possesses an undeniable, haunting grandeur.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
Numbing and inert.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
You may resist Northfork, but I doubt you'll be able to forget it.
San Jose Mercury News
Glenn Lovell
Unbelievably boring.
Salon.com
Stephanie Zacharek
Northfork just about gets us off the ground on its dreamy, feathery angel wings; it just doesn't have the strength or the stamina to keep us aloft.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
Just too lost in its own presumed self-enchantment.
Ebert & Roeper
Richard Roeper
It does look good, I just didn't feel like it had a story that moved me.
Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
It has that vintage Polish pace, their signature arch pomposity and rhythmless weirdness, only this time the brothers had to go and make a cosmic allegory of American dreams.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
Remarkable love letter to the disappearance of the American frontier.
