The Intruder Reviews
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
Characteristically impressionistic, French director Claire Denis' latest meditation is simultaneously baffling and beautiful, and definitely not for everyone.
Boston Globe
Wesley Morris
Denis composes a majestic dream book of shots and sequences.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
While it may take a few viewings to sort the details out, much about L'Intrus lingers, shimmering quietly in the memory.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
Never has Denis demanded so much from audiences as with this shimmering enigma, at once intimate and epic, but it's worth the effort and then some.
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
[S]hould you see The Intruder? Yes -- but only if you're willing to ignore bothersome concerns about narrative and let the poetic images take over your mind.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
Claire Denis's magnificent enigma of a film explores the troubled soul of a brooding loner who travels halfway around the world to begin a new life.
San Francisco Chronicle
G. Allen Johnson
An interior epic with epic exteriors, a film with very little dialogue, where the pictures (photographed by the great Agnès Godard), actors and the juxtaposition of both tell the story.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
It's one of those films where it's best to go with its maddening elegiac but elusive flow and let whatever comes to you be enough.
Filmcritic.com
Christopher Null
yet another meandering piece of existentialism, signifying nothing except for what you're willing to project onto it.
Slant Magazine
Nick Schager
Invisible emotional and psychological tendons are the ties that keep the film from completely dispersing into non-sequential incoherence.
RogerEbert.com
Glenn Kenny
It's so vital and elastic that it offers up more secrets and epiphanies every time.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer
Sean Axmaker
... may be a spy thriller, a tale of redemption, or the fever dream of a heart patient haunted by his paternal failures of the past. To reduce Denis' elusive and elliptical drama to any kind of literal plot, however, misses the point.
Film Comment Magazine
Amy Taubin
Denis is one of cinema's greatest narrative poets, and The Intruder, the story of an adventurer, is her most adventurous cinematic poem.
Variety
Jay Weissberg
A beautiful, complex work that challenges viewers to mentally sift interior and exterior journeys.
Salon.com
Stephanie Zacharek
The Intruder ... is exhilarating and exhausting, the kind of picture you don't bounce back from immediately.
Village Voice
Dennis Lim
This mysterious object may be Denis's most gorgeous film (which is saying something), but more than that, it's a fearless filmmaker's boldest experiment yet, a direct line from her unconscious to yours.

Erika Balsom
An expansive reflection on the pleasures and dangers of boundary violation...Human and animal, past and present, life and death, dreams and waking life: in L'intrus, every threshold is there to be crossed.
Bay Area Reporter
David Lamble
The Intruder, however sketchy its plot or character motivations, is lavishly mounted, and will not fail to engage the mind and the eye on the huge Castro screen...
Film Journal International
Maria Garcia
A film that's so recondite, it's barely there.
