Bullhead Ratings & Reviews
HollywoodChicago.com
Brian Tallerico
This dark, vicious film gets a bit muddled at times but the strength of its lead performance and a strong visual palette make it a stark but worthwhile trip.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
It's one of those films you have to reconstruct in your mind.
The New Yorker
Anthony Lane
Some of the dialogue is overloaded, but the formidable cinematography, by Nicolas Karakatsanis, envelops us in an ever-darkening world.
Washington Post
Mark Jenkins
Many terms applied to action movies - muscular, animalistic, testosterone-fueled - are literally true of Bullhead.
TheWrap
Alonso Duralde
Even though the crime story winds up overwhelming the proceedings, it's the characters that make Bullhead so powerful and so unique.
Boston Globe
Wesley Morris
[It] has enough strands of story for an epic tale. But Roskam appears more interested in trying to combine genres that don't easily cohere.
Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
Bullhead proves that you can make an underworld movie pumped up with pretension.
Shockya.com
Perri Nemiroff
Relentless from beginning to end, the dialogue fully loaded with intricate details and the film in general oozing with high stakes and suspense.
Slate
Dana Stevens
I hope we'll be getting another chance to watch Matthias Schoenaerts' work in the near future -- as huge as he is in this role, I suspect there's plenty more to see.

Leonard Maltin
Part of the response comes from the excitement of discovery: an unknown writer-director making his feature debut, and creating a gritty crime story (with strong emotional currents) set against an unlikely backdrop.
Film.com
William Goss
Guided with a sure hand by writer-director Roskam, Bullhead is a tragic character study in the guise of a seedy crime drama.
NPR
Scott Tobias
A GoodFellas set among the hormone mafia may not sound like a great movie, but Roskam subtly steers it toward intense and agonizing character study, with the bovine-supplement angle raising the stakes and dredging up the past.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
Starts out like a thriller and turns into a disturbing tragedy in an unlikely and unexpected key.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
Part character study, part crime thriller, "Bullhead" is the impressive but deeply flawed first feature written and directed by Michael R. Roskam.
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
Well-made, engrossing and almost unbearably grim.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
This movie grabs the bull by the horns and takes viewers on a surprising ride.
Associated Press
Christy Lemire
Eventually it reveals itself to be a character drama about the way the past shapes us and our inability to escape it, no matter how convincingly we believe we've transformed ourselves.
AV Club
Noel Murray
Bullhead is well-plotted, with a powerful ending, but its most brutal scene comes early, explaining why for Schoenaerts, life has been one long wince.
Slant Magazine
Calum Marsh
What Bullhead ultimately lacks isn't balls but insight and empathy.
Observer
Rex Reed
Take a chance and you will be rewarded with a work of nightmarish force that is unforgettable.
