Seven Veils Ratings & Reviews
Los Angeles Times
Sergio Burstein
Although the story does not have a completely successful rhythm... there is no choice but to surrender to the character of Jeanine, brilliantly played by Seyfried. [Full review in Spanish]
Common Sense Media
Tara McNamara
For fans of opera, director Atom Egoyan's modern-day Salome set inside an actual production of Salome will likely be an absolute triumph.
RogerEbert.com
Jourdain Searles
Egoyan has always delved right into fraught familial ties without shying away from ugliness, and "Seven Veils" is perhaps his most overt exploration of familial trauma.
Spectrum Culture
Charles Johnston
The elements that make Atom Egoyan's films so elegant, sensual and mysteriously alluring decorate every inch of his latest work, but it's like watching a pot that never boils.
Splice Today
Stephen Silver
Seyfried is strong, but the film's trying to do too much while also getting to a lot of these ideas late.
Chicago Reader
Maxwell Rabb
Instead of sharpening its blades on the operatic chaos radiating from its main character, the film loses its edge, veering into an overwrought territory that ultimately diminishes its finale.
Hammer to Nail
Christopher Llewellyn Reed
Egoyan handles the challenging motifs expertly, as one would expect from the artist who gave us such 1990s masterpieces as "Exotica" and "The Sweet Hereafter."
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
... visually striking, although Egoyan's deeply personal screenplay doesn't resonate as powerfully for moviegoers, who are more likely to feel confusion rather than catharsis.
Washington Post
Ty Burr
Less might have been more - but less wouldn't have been Atom Egoyan.
AV Club
Brianna Zigler
Yet in spite of the script's disinterest in nuance, where it ends up is annoyingly vague and thematically imprecise.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
[Seyfried] finesses some zig-zaggy tonal swerves confidently and well.
The Playlist
Warren Cantrell
How these characters weaponize desire, lust, and the desperation of those around them within a story about a production "Salome" isn't just effective, it's devilishly clever...
Hey, Have You Seen ...?
Jared Mobarak
Jeanine is exorcising her demons by confronting her past through her art-wielding this opportunity as a weapon to ensure some culpability on [her former teacher's] part is added to the myth surrounding his acclaim with this specific opera.
Wall Street Journal
Zachary Barnes
Resituating classic operas in updated contexts is, by now, old hat... But with "Seven Veils" Mr. Egoyan has done something more interesting, weaving a new narrative into and around the opera until the two become a dense, dark thicket of their own.
New York Times
Ben Kenigsberg
Fans who mourn that Egoyan's dramatic instincts have slipped in recent years won't quite be getting a return to form.
Observer
Emily Zemler
Amanda Seyfried gives a dynamic, complex performance as an opera director grappling with trauma in her past and present.
Slant Magazine
Eli Friedberg
For better and worse, Seven Veils abounds in myriad thematic swings tied loosely to one another through echoes and rhymes.
TheWrap
Martin Tsai
"Seven Veils" feels like a true return to form for Egoyan, almost as if "Salome" has inspired Egoyan's entire filmography.
IndieWire
Natalia Winkelman
Acting as the film's teetering anchor, Seyfried channels a fascinating blend of composure and chaos that, in a less muddled movie, would have sung.
The Hollywood Reporter
Michael Rechtshaffen
Essentially serving as a constant spectator, looking in on both the production and her own tangled life, Seyfriend impressively conveys a myriad of tamped-down, long-repressed emotions with an economy of dialogue at her disposal.
