Ulysses' Gaze Ratings & Reviews
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
Angelopoulos' film is lyrically evocative but painfully self-important.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
What arrogance and self-importance this film reveals.
FilmFestivals.com
Moira Sullivan
This ambitious film fails to compel. Too many closeups of disposed Lenin statues.
Deseret News (Salt Lake City)
Jeff Vice
While it's beautiful, even graceful, and though its heart is in the right place, there's just as much to condemn as there is in its favor.
New York Times
Janet Maslin
The overall effect is genuinely entrancing, with a sense of tragic inevitability that gives meaning to the film's maddeningly attenuated rhythms.
Austin Chronicle
Russell Smith
Journalistic fairness compels me to note that this film won a Special Jury Prize at Cannes. However, I strongly suspect that those judges were cowed more than won over. We don't have to make the same mistake.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
The film's images are always powerful, even if the dialogue seems superfluous.
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
Magisterially filmed, this movie demands at almost every instant to be regarded as a masterpiece, though for me it's too full of itself and its own virtue. Still, I can't deny it's an experience worth having.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
This grim travelogue through a landscape of despair lacks internal power. It feels labored and portentous.
TV Guide
Modernist stylization has its place in narrative film, but in this case less would have meant much more.
