The Revenant | Ratings & Reviews

"Oscar-winner Alejandro G. Iñárritu applies his artful specificity to one of the wildest settings imaginable, resulting in a gripping and immersive frontier adventure. As an exercise in pure cinematic style, The Revenant is almost unprecedented - the film is simply staggering to behold for practically its entire running time. Iñárritu dives deep into the savagery of the setting and characters, exploring the insanity from all angles while maintaining a remarkably steady directorial hand."

Flicks, Dominic CorryFlicks

"In aiming to steer his dark, fatalistic vision toward something genuinely contemplative and cathartic, Inarritu has managed to appropriate the beauty of Malick’s filmmaking but none of its sublimity..."

VarietyVariety

"Astounding. With a director, DoP and cast at the top of their game, The Revenant is a filmmaking triumph."

Total FilmTotal Film

"What makes this more than just a punishing, fearful, expertly crafted thriller focused on one man’s endurance is heavily down to Emmanuel Lubezki’s attractive, thoughtful photography."

Time OutTime Out

"There’s no question it’s an extraordinary, blood-summoning, sinew-stiffening ride."

The TelegraphThe Telegraph

"As thrilling and painful as a sheet of ice held to the skin."

The GuardianThe Guardian

"One of the bravest, toughest, most awe-inspiring exercises in "making a movie" ever attempted."

StuffStuff

"Pushing both brutal realism and extravagant visual poetry to the edges of what one customarily finds in mainstream American filmmaking..."

Hollywood ReporterHollywood Reporter

"DiCaprio's raw performance helps elevate what could have been just another man-versus-nature drama."
