Blue Velvet Ratings & Reviews
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Eleanor Ringel Cater
Lynch pushes audiences into places not everyone wants to go, and Blue Velvet is not a conventional good time at the movies. But it is one of the most brilliant and provocative films of the year.
Arizona Republic
Marsha McCreadie
It's as if Fellini were suddenly taking on the punk world of '50s memorabilia. It makes no sense, but it sticks in your mind. Lynch may be brilliant, but I bet he's a little bonkers, too.
Boston Phoenix
Owen Gleiberman
Blue Velvet has just enough story for viewers to convince themselves they're watching a rational movie... Yet it's the way this story is finally absorbed and dissolved in Lynch's dreamlike moods that gives the film its haunting undertow.
Boston Globe
Jay Carr
It utterly redeems Lynch from the debacle of Dune and is that rarest of Hollywood products -- a riveting, complex, layered film with a distinctive and highly vivid directorial signature.
Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com
Michael H. Price
As perfect and perfectly disturbing a picture as the American cinema has delivered. This masterful film taps unflinchingly into perversion and decadence in order to present wholesome enlightenment with both a challenge and a conduit.
New York Daily News
Jay Maeder
It is harrowing, repulsive, accursed, probably clinically deranged, absolutely limned with genius. It is quite extraordinary.
Minneapolis Star Tribune
Jeff Strickler
Lynch drags us into a netherworld of darkness, perversion and ugliness, snuffing with brutality whatever intellectual interest we might have in his premise. He insists on rubbing our noses in the stench long past when his point is made.
Newsday
Joseph Gelmis
Blue Velvet is bruising, but it's fascinating -- a bizarre thriller, deliriously erotic, perversely funny, appallingly cruel.
New York Magazine/Vulture
David Denby
The combination of sexual primitivism and art-world knowingness brings its own kind of heavy depression. Blue Velvet is a work of art, but it's not an exhilarating experience.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Harper Barnes
Surely, this is one of the strangest and visually repellent big-budget films ever made. And yet, some scenes are almost literally unforgettable.
Los Angeles Herald Examiner
Peter Rainer
It gets into areas of dread and shock and torment that are so profoundly dislocating and dreamlike that, watching it, you feel as if you're coiled right up inside the vision of an artist with a live feed to the unconscious.
Detroit Free Press
Catharine Rambeau
The acting's grand, all right; too bad the characters aren't.
Village Voice
Melissa Anderson
Three decades after its initial release, David Lynch's Blue Velvet has lost none of its power to derange, terrify, and exhilarate.
The New Yorker
Pauline Kael
The charged erotic atmosphere makes the film something of a hallucination, but Lynch's humor keeps breaking through, too.
Los Angeles Times
Sheila Benson
Shocking, visionary, rapturously controlled, its images of innocence and a dark, bruising sexuality drop straight into our unconscious where they rest like depth charges.
Chicago Tribune
Gene Siskel
[A] powerful, mesmerizing thriller, a masterful exercise in controlling an audience`s attention.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Carrie Rickey
Lush and peculiar Blue Velvet, the latest film from the mind that spawned Eraserhead, is an unnerving combination of the wholesome and the unholy.
Orlando Sentinel
Jay Boyar
Destined to become a cult classic, Blue Velvet presents what is probably the most original cinematic vision to come along this year. Undoubtedly, it will be too strong for many tastes.
TIME Magazine
Richard Corliss
Lynch and his film will surely be reviled, but as an experiment in expanding cinema's dramatic and technical vocabulary, Blue Velvet demands respect.
People Magazine
Peter Travers
Whether you are attracted or repelled by Lynch's bizarre vision, one thing is for sure: You've never seen anything like it in your life.
