Styx Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Reader
Ben Sachs
[A] thought-provoking moral drama.
Hyperallergic
Andrew Stooke
In a drifting mise-en-scène, the film represents its topical subject matter -- the plight of migrants -- as a timeless crisis of separation, and, for its protagonist, a bitter loss of innocence.
Always Good Movies
Filipe Freitas
The ending didn't exceed expectations, but this was a piercingly realistic cinematic experience based on an outrageous true story.
Eye for Film
Amber Wilkinson
The economy with which Fisher tells us all this is impressive with a map here and a book spine there telling most of the story.
Backseat Mafia
Rob Aldam
Tackles much bigger issues by focusing on a choice no one should have to make.
Detroit News
Tom Long
"Styx" mixes the inherent danger of man versus nature with man's callous indifference to man, managing to be both eternal and contemporary in its concerns.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
Wolff is never less than mesmerizing in this role, which demands a performance that is, at times, more physical than emotive.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
Its dizzying strength is as a visceral journey, a detour from the privileged freedom represented by a horizon to the tragic limbo of displacement, an ocean that's both a confinement and an abyss.
San Francisco Examiner
Anita Katz
As an indictment of indifference, the movie is neither preachy nor heavy-handed.
The Playlist
Jonathan Christian
Styx bottles up enough enjoyable misery to leave you questioning just how much you matter in this world-or if you even matter to anyone at all.
Book & Film Globe
Stephen Garrett
Styx runs a brief but deceptively-powerful 94 minutes, but it sticks with audiences long after it's over.
IndieWire
David Ehrlich
Perverse as it may sound, the film isn't punishing or stretched out enough to make everything feel equal, and the lack of adrenaline can sometimes feel like an affectation unto itself.
Counterpunch.org
Louis Proyect
An unnervingly grim drama that strips the refugee crisis down to its bare essentials.
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
[T]he film becomes a harrowing, despairing experience, in which the protagonist and we are left helpless...
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
A taut moral thriller, "Styx" is a story of what happens when self-reliance runs into other people's desperation.
Slant Magazine
Keith Watson
The film is a penetrating an indictment of the bureaucratic obstacles placed in front of refugees.
National Newspaper Publishers Association
Dwight Brown
The existential elements of this very contemporary rumination are obvious. Bringing the plight of refugees to the forefront is noble. It's enough to make this excursion, which piques fear, sadness and anger, haunting.
Battleship Pretension
David Bax
Styx is not just a movie about refugees but about our current political moment in which intelligent, rational people look at an increasingly narrow-minded, greedy world and despair at the seeming insurmountability of the problems.
Variety
Jessica Kiang
This is "All Is Lost" with a spinning moral compass and a topical dimension that proves even more gripping than its brilliantly achieved visceral action.
The Hollywood Reporter
Boyd van Hoeij
Carrying practically the entire film, Wolff is never less than remarkable in a demanding role that's 80 percent silence and 20 percent English-language dialogue.
