Derek Jarman's Jubilee is one of the most original, bold, and exciting features to have come out of Britain in the 1970s. Read full review

Jarman’s sophomore film Jubilee, is a Molotov Cocktail of celluloid – a film that practically dares you to watch it. Read full review

Sam Adams

Appearances by Adam Ant, the Slits and Siouxsie and the Banshees, along with U.S. trans icon Jayne County, ground it in the moment, but Jarman's suggestion that even the most vocal nihilists would sell out their ideals — if given enough encouragement, naturally — provided a glimpse of the future.

TV Guide Magazine Staff (Not Credited)

Neat and quirky, this is undoubtedly one of the freshest black comedies around. Read full review

In conception the film remains highly original, and it does deliver enough of the goods to sail effortlessly away with the title of Britain's first official punk movie. Read full review
