Post Mortem Ratings & Reviews
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
Mario's life spirals out of control in unexpected ways.
indieWire
Eric Kohn
A chilling exploration of the 1973 Pinochet coup soaked in metaphor but rooted in dreadful fact.
Seattle Times
Tom Keogh
Mesmerizing, somehow otherworldly...
AV Club
Noel Murray
Larrain crafts Post Mortem as a slow, quiet character study, narrowing in on Castro in his home and office while the world outside descends into madness.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
[A] grim, intense, mordantly comic little film...
Movieline
Stephanie Zacharek
Post Mortem starts out at a crawl, but it gathers emotional momentum as it pushes forward.
Slant Magazine
Nick Schager
Pablo Larraín keeps the army's brutality off screen to amplify a sense of oppressive malevolence.
Latinx Lens
Rosa Parra
A powerful portrayal of a story that takes place at the peak of Pinochet's dictatorship. Ends with a profoundly memorable closing shot.
ARTINFO.com
J. Hoberman
Building in intensity, this is a movie that's both elusive and visceral in its metaphors. The perverse anti-virtuosity of the filmmaking heightens the sense of pervasive shabbiness and ineptitude. It's a new and original vision of political terror.
Reverse Shot
Ela Bittencourt
Post Mortem is only Larraín's second feature, but he has already proven a distinct style-an unmistakable deadpan-and an interest in political and personal utopias.
NPR
Mark Jenkins
Post Mortem is - intentionally - not an engaging movie.
Village Voice
Melissa Anderson
Often drolly, coolly morbid, Post Mortem also operates just as effectively in a more nakedly direct register.
IONCINEMA.com
Nicholas Bell
Engrossing, intricate, and intelligent, Post Mortem is an effectively chilling Chilean nightmare.
Film-Forward.com
Kent Turner
[Actor Alfred] Castro, giving Robert De Niro a run for his money, has taken the anti-hero to an insidious extreme.
Spirituality & Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
The violence in Chile in 1973 when the government of Salvador Allende was overthrown seen through the eyes of a mortuary assistant.
Movies for the Masses
Joseph Proimakis
the film develops into a kind of horror, made all the more horrifying by your inability to imagine any alternative, preferable ending
