- David “DC” Bolling @ DC’s Take
- Excerpt: Unlike his previous two films, it’s a bold move to go the anthology angle. Still, it leaves behind a frustrating movie that’s certainly original but wasn’t crazy about it walking out.
- Gregory Carlson @ southpawfilmworks.net
- Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: Lanthimos’s themes about control and the need for love and belonging become increasingly difficult to care about…is never boring, quite the feat given its 165 minute running time, but I for one doubt I’ll ever want to watch it again.
- [New] | Bavner Donaldo @ Cinejour [Indonesian]
- Richard Gray @ The Reel Bits
- Excerpt: Lanthimos delivers of a triptych of his idiosyncratic weirdness, assembling his troupe of actors to do what they do best.
- Anne Hoyt @ Desistfilm [Spanish]
- Excerpt: Alegoría Cristiana?
- MaryAnn Johanson @ FlickFilosopher.com
- Excerpt: A mad monstrosity of a movie: absurdist, enigmatic, perverse. Lanthimos’s typical grotesque humor is on full display. Yay for a film that actually attempts to capture how insane the world is today?
- Victoria Luxford @ City AM
- Excerpt: The director has crafted a twisted anthology that will either leave you crying with laughter or pale with concern.
- Harrison Martin @ Flixfrog
- Excerpt: After watching Kinds of Kindness I’ve come to the conclusion that Yorgos Lanthimos is either crazy or brilliant. Either way his movies aren’t for me.
- Nell Minow @ moviemom.com
- Excerpt: Director Yorgos Lanthimos is more interested in shock and sensation than story or character.
- Josh Thayer @ The Forgetful Film Critic
- Excerpt: Really more of a twist on The Twilight Zone than anything else, Kinds of Kindness scratches the weird itch and provides surprises at every turn. Plus, who doesn’t love a good anthology?
- Sebastian Zavala @ Cinencuentro.com [Spanish]
- Excerpt: It’s an uneven experience, difficult to connect with on an emotional level, but intellectually stimulating, especially when you compare the different narrative elements and messages of the three stories.
