By the Time It Gets Dark Ratings & Reviews
LarsenOnFilm
Josh Larsen
While always mesmerized, I admittedly got lost amidst the layers...
Floating World
Dustin Chang
Dostoevskian concept- like a tobacco leaves and fungi, to give them meaning and purpose, these layers Suwichakornpong presents will need to sit and rot. I am just amazed by her wisdom & skills to convey this kind of complicated thoughts through film.
The Stranger (Seattle, WA)
Andrew Wright
Anocha Suwichakornpong's WTF tone poem of a film casts a bewitching spell, even/especially as it periodically reinvents itself. Intriguing and severely beautiful throughout, even during those moments when it seems like logic has taken a flyer.
Film Inquiry
Lee Ashworth
By The Time It Gets Dark is a cinematic classic that will beg to be watched, decided and marvelled at, time and time again.
Film Comment Magazine
Jonathan Romney
The film's textures and syntax are so strange and alluring that Suwichakornpong's film becomes far more than the sum of its disparate parts.
Artforum
Nick Pinkerton
Suwichakornpong achingly recognizes the gulf between pseudo-knowledge and lived wisdom, and it is in this liminal zone that she has chosen to work.
New York Times
Ben Kenigsberg
"By the Time It Gets Dark" has clearly been thought through, but it's so cryptic that it cries out for, if not perfect explanations, perhaps footnotes. It's so conceptual that it offers little for those not in sync.
Village Voice
Michael Atkinson
You could be forgiven for thinking that while all this is going on, nothing at all seems to happen - it's a film, a rather gorgeous one, of glances and ephemera and delicate metaphors.
The Hollywood Reporter
Clarence Tsui
By the Time It Gets Dark is a magical, melancholic ode to the intellectual's struggle against the forces of history.
Slant Magazine
Chuck Bowen
[By the Time It Gets Dark ironically grows] more hypnotic, rapturous, and overpowering, discarding conventional narrative to hunt for wild emotional shard.
The Film Stage
Ethan Vestby
Most of these ideas are more interesting on principal than execution. That is, until its final twenty-or-so minutes.
The Playlist
Chris Barsanti
If this is satire, By the Time It Gets Dark is a mostly toothless one.
