David Sterritt

Dumont's cinematic style is aggressively physical and philosophical at the same time. It irritates as many viewers as it inspires, but it prompts more thought than ordinary movies ever do. Read full review

Stephen Holden

You probably won't feel comfortable when Humanité is over, but as you leave the theater you will feel more alive than when you entered. Read full review

Kevin Thomas

A film of stunning impact. Read full review

Mr. Showbiz Michael Atkinson

Dumont's movie has virtually nothing wrong with it -- aside from the fact that it drives people crazy. Take the leap, but expect no answers. Just like life, as they say. Read full review

Lisa Schwarzbaum

It ought to be seen, because it's a work of moral and spiritual mystery. Read full review

Kim Morgan

Frustrating, tedious and yet often compelling. Read full review

Richard Corliss

Don't ask us why this minimalist drama won prizes last year at Cannes or why it is getting raves in its U.S. release. Read full review
