November Ratings & Reviews
Andy Davidson | folknhell.com
August 18, 2025
A hypnotic tale of love and loss where shadows and folklore entwine in beautiful, bleak harmony.
Every Movie Has a Lesson
Don Shanahan
The experimental foreign film brims with allegory and is strikingly shot. However, the film's compelling qualities never seem to match its obscene effort towards the art.
Loud and Clear Reviews
Nils Gollersrud
November descends into the despairing snowy forests of Estonia to spin a dreamlike tale of folkloric superstition, unrequited love, and exchanges of souls.
Boston Globe
Peter Keough
Sarnet elevates his Rabelaisian folktale into a tragedy illustrated by haunting, metaphorical imagery.
Reeling Reviews
Laura Clifford
If Canada's Guy Maddin collaborated with Czech stop motion animator Jan vankmajer using an abandoned location from a Bela Tarr film, the result might be something like this strange (and often strangely humorous) gothic fairy tale.
Dallas Morning News
Chris Vognar
November is one of those films you can enjoy staring at from a perspective of visual-arts appreciation, even if the story gets thin (and it definitely does).
Los Angeles Times
Sheri Linden
Sarnet's earthbound fairy tale occupies a dreamscape somewhere between the teeming canvases of Brueghel and the existential agonies of Bela Tarr's films. And it's funny, with a sly salaciousness all its own.
The Daily Beast
Nick Schager
November is all-caps CRAZY in the best, funniest, most exhilarating way possible. A mere description cannot, I recognize, do its out-there-ness true justice.
Birth.Movies.Death.
Jacob Knight
This year's Estonian submission for the Best Foreign Language Oscar is gorgeous, but somewhat impenetrable for the unfamiliar.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
This midnight-movie classic in the making uses ancient Estonian folk tales to create something shockingly unexpected. Both gravely serious and demonically funny, it's meant to knock audiences off balance. Mission accomplished.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
Even if you can't always follow what's going on, this genre-mixing oddity from Estonia remains visually entrancing throughout.
Film Freak Central
Alice Stoehr
Bodies of water and the overcast sky likewise become clean white sheets. This high-contrast palette applies a picturesque gloss to even the most prosaic shots.
RogerEbert.com
Glenn Kenny
November never stops being a visual trip.
NPR
Mark Jenkins
The movie's central story, a tortured-love triangle, is slight. But the context is fascinating and the visual style bewitching.
Film Journal International
Daniel Eagan
It's a worthwhile journey into a demonic world.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
Suffused with sorcery and silvery light, "November," written and directed by Rainer Sarnet, is a bizarre Estonian love story - a mishmash of folklore, farm animals and scabrous fun - in which beauty and ugliness fight to the death.
Village Voice
Sam Weisberg
[A] bone-chilling, hallucinatory tour de force ...
Slant Magazine
Diego Semerene
Rainer Sarnet is as invested in telling a convoluted story that feels rooted in millennia-old folklore as he is in unabashedly experimenting with form and style for the sake of visual pleasure alone.
The Film Stage
Jared Mobarak
While the marketing materials conjure visions of The Witch and its supernatural entities writhing around in period filth, November hews closer to Hard to Be a God and its genre-bending chaos.
Variety
Jessica Kiang
It's rooting the bizarre behaviors of its characters in such understandable motivations (usually greed) that makes it so unexpectedly funny and scabrously relatable.
