Dog Star Man Ratings & Reviews
The New York Review of Books
Max Nelson
A dazzling feature for which Brakhage used increasingly colorful and multilayered superimpositions to intersperse Jane's footage of himself climbing a snow-covered hill with his images of her and their infant daughter.
Classic Film and Television
Michael E. Grost
Classic experimental film.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Regarded by Brakhage fans as his masterpiece.
Bryant Frazer's Deep Focus
Bryant Frazer
A jaw-dropping declaration of principles.
Christian Science Monitor
David Sterritt
A meditation on the individual's place in the universe.
Village Voice
J. Hoberman
A multilayered, self-consciously Joycean, naturally psychedelic epic.
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
Whatever one thinks, and however much the film may seem dated now in relation to Brakhage's subsequent output, it is an achievement to be reckoned with.
PopMatters
Jake Euker
Dog Star Man is a work of realism into which abstraction intrudes.
TV Guide
Clearly, Brakhage's film has had a tremendous impact on both the avant-garde film movement and mainstream cinema, but uneasy rests the crown of a self-important classic.
