Sylvio Ratings & Reviews
The Film Stage
Jason Ooi
A tense amalgamation of lowbrow sensibilities and highbrow execution, which the anthropomorphic gorilla then beats into submission.
IndieWire
Eric Kohn
Sylvio endures a classic journey toward making peace with his existence, and that's enough to make it worthwhile.
Slant Magazine
Greg Cwik
Sylvio's banal depictions of everyday loneliness through the diurnal tedium of an anthropomorphic animal brings to mind BoJack Horseman, but without the caustic navel-gazing and self-destruction or the mordant pop-culture musings.
Film Threat
Bill Arceneaux
No matter what, Sylvio gave me belly laughs and evocative feels. Thus far, it is my favorite film of the year. A most disturbing year, but still.
Village Voice
Danny King
A work of gentle whimsy and surprising pathos, Sylvio proposes a buddy-comedy scenario involving a most unlikely screen pair.
Variety
Nick Schager
This charming lo-fi indie from actor-director Kentucker Audley and director Albert Birney is attuned to its own eccentric wavelength, equal parts absurd and poignant.
The New Yorker
Richard Brody
Bernardi is an actor of genius; his Janus-faced pantomime, as Sylvio struggles voicelessly for a place among human chatterboxes, channels the infinite grace of the great silent-film comedians.
Austin Chronicle
Dan Gentile
Rich with ingenious sight gags and clever, deadpan writing.
The Hollywood Reporter
Keith Uhlich
One of Sylvio's greatest strengths is the ever-present, though never fully verified sense that Birney and Audley are having a long laugh at their audience's expense.
Ars Technica
Nathan Mattise
Sylvio shows both the platform's peculiar and pleasurable influences will continue to surface...
Solzy at the Movies
Danielle Solzman
Sylvio is perhaps the most absurd buddy comedy that's ever been made.
Arts Fuse
Betsy Sherman
The absurdist comedy Sylvio suffers from chronic low energy.
Spliced Personality
Sean Burns
Sylvio has stray moments of beauty that border on the sublime. There's a yearning to the hairy guy's amazingly uneventful puppet shows, a dream of sophistication that transcends his animal brutishness.
Austin American-Statesman
Matt Shiverdecker
It's a testament to the ingenuity and creativity of Birney and Audley that this quirky low-budget comedy is able to break through and resonate.
