Our Hero, Balthazar Ratings & Reviews
The Cinematic Reel
David Gonzalez
Our Hero, Balthazar is not an easy watch, and its relentless intensity may alienate some viewers, but it's a powerful work of social critique that demands to be seen.
The Film Stage
John Fink
Our Hero Balthazar is an effective entry point into a crisis that truly needs more coverage in both documentary and narrative cinema.
Austin Chronicle
Richard Whittaker
It may start as a comedy but Our Hero, Balthazar becomes an increasingly uneasy watch. However, it may be an essential one.
Substream Magazine
Murjani Rawls
Boyson jokes at the parables of the film without making a mockery out of them and uses the more shocking imagery not to hammer a message home, but to give you something weighty to ponder.
The Contending
Frank J. Avella
...a scathing, audacious look at our wayward and social media indoctrinated youth, their selfish and manipulative parents and America's lunatic gun culture. The film will make you laugh hysterically one minute and disturb the shit out of you the next.
Next Best Picture
Giovanni Lago
Oscar Boyson's feature directorial debut, "Our Hero, Balthazar," is a riotous dark comedy that manages to push all the right buttons in its curiosity about an isolation that is currently plaguing young male zoomers.
IndieWire
Ryan Lattanzio
"Our Hero, Balthazar" isn't cold by any means, but the result comes off as more ethnographic in tone than the in-your-face bravado of the approach would suggest.
Variety
Owen Gleiberman
It's a cutting, audacious, and at times astonishing movie. Yet what makes it work is that Boyson, who cowrote the script with Ricky Camilleri, is truly onto something.
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
Alternately disturbing and brutally funny, and ending with the sort of capper that perfectly encapsulates its provocative ethos, this marks an auspicious directorial debut for Oscar Boyson.
