[A] riveting documentary. Read full review

Los Angeles TimesKenneth TuranJan 12, 2017
This is one documentary, as “La Danse” was before it, that is a thing of beauty in and of itself. Read full review

TheWrapTricia OlszewskiJan 12, 2017
Reset becomes incrementally less interesting as the performance pulls together; although it’s a visual feast to watch dancers in slow-motion executing seemingly impossible moves, the directors can only go to that well so many times before it gets a bit dull. Read full review

Village VoiceSerena DonadoniJan 12, 2017
Reset often seems like Demaizière and Teurlai's attempt to indoctrinate a new generation. Their glorious recruitment film espouses individual expression and athletic grace, while also pinpointing the limits of star power. Read full review

For dance fans this is a fascinating study of the time, effort and logistics that go into a big production. Read full review

VarietyNick SchagerJan 9, 2017
Reset is so gorgeously shot that it almost distracts attention away from the sheer inertia of its material. Read full review

EmpireDavid ParkinsonJan 9, 2017
Ruinously prioritising chic over content, this is intellectually and stylistically shallow when it should have been dynamic and compelling. Read full review

The GuardianPeter BradshawJan 9, 2017
Not so much a documentary, more a sleek two-hour commercial for itself, Reset is a glossily produced non-look behind the scenes at the Paris Opera Ballet. Read full review
