Critic Reviews

J. Hoberman

Increasingly violent (although always distanced), The Outskirts is at once appalling and bleakly humorous. Read full review

V.A. Musetto

The Outskirts, handsomely directed by Petr Lutsik, will grab people's emotions. The dark and bitter comedy deals with a corrupt, post-communist Russia. Read full review

Dave Kehr

A strange, disturbing and yet occasionally quite funny cultural artifact from the new Russia. Read full review

Dennis Harvey

Lutsik takes aim at reckless capitalism --- as well as the increasing Westernization of Russian filmmaking --- with a disquieting allegory that in both themes and aesthetic is an audacious throwback to pre-WWII Soviet cinema formalism. Read full review

Jonathan Rosenbaum

Grim, phantasmagoric view of recent and not-so-recent Russian history. Read full review
