Hilma Ratings & Reviews
Cambridge Day
Sarah Vincent
Instead, Hallström ("My Life as a Dog") shows her through contemporary doubters' eyes as a grief-stricken madwoman, making what could have been a richer delve dull and pedantic.
Newport This Week (RI)
Loren King
"Hilma" shows how the sexism and rigidity of the art establishment in her time made it difficult for an outsider and general oddball like af Klint to be recognized and appreciated.
48 Hills
Dennis Harvey
The visionary eccentricity of Klint's art and life, which here encompasses speculative lesbian relationships, ends up feeling almost extraneous to a terribly conventional biopic. Sexism is portrayed in hamfisted ways...
Common Sense Media
Monique Jones
A sensitive story of a groundbreaking artist.
Floating World
Dustin Chang
Hilma af Klint was an artist who wanted to find a meaning of life through art. But with her stunning work, she didn't need a validation from any men.
Spectrum Culture
Miyako Pleines
A biographical account of the life of Swedish abstract painter Hilma af Klint that ultimately fails to elevate itself beyond the repetitive and uninteresting traps and pitfalls of the artist biopic.
Edge Media Network
Frank J. Avella
The film casually depicts her same-sex relationships and the drama that ensues. "Hilma's" greatest asset is Lena Olin, seen too fleetingly, in a fully-committed, enigmatic turn.
RogerEbert.com
Nell Minow
The affection ... for af Klint and for creating art shines through.
In Review Online
Sarah Williams
The decades-spanning coming-of-art narrative hardly acknowledges her place as an artist, or even her technique... Rather, Hallström meanders in social barriers, and personal effects, that never seek pattern in the shapes on af Klint's canvas.
Chicago Reader
Dmitry Samarov
In a Q&A after a recent screening, Olin admitted that they only learned about the painter a couple years before making this film. It shows.
Wall Street Journal
Kyle Smith
The new film is sensitive to and respectful of its subject... and does honor to Af Klint and her mad visions.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
Providing the compassion and acceptance that eluded its enigmatic subject in real life, this biopic is both conventional and insightful.
Ty Burr's Watch List (Substack)
Ty Burr
A handsomely mounted and rather stiff affair...
New York Times
Amy Nicholson
Hallstrom wins the audience back with his sincere connection to af Klint, played in her bullheaded youth by his daughter, Tora Hallstrom, and in her muttering years by his wife, Lena Olin.
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
Tora Hallström gives a warm and tender performance, but the film doesn't take enough risks, lacks emotional depth and, above all, fails to illuminate Hilma's inner life.
Gay City News
Gary M. Kramer
The film is handsomely made and certainly a fitting tribute to the artist, whose work is well presented throughout the film.
AWFJ.org
Jennifer Merin
Gender bias is fully exposed in this sumptuous biopic about Swedish painter Hilma aft Klint (1862-1944) whose brilliant, innovative abstract paintings preceded those of Wassily Kandinsky (1866-1944), oft credited as the creator of abstract art.
Variety
Tomris Laffly
Featuring Lasse Hallström's daughter Tora Hallström in an impressive turn in the title role, this spirited biopic splits the difference between the conventional and the mystical.
The Hollywood Reporter
Sheri Linden
Spirited and sensuous.
Film Inquiry
Lee Jutton
Hilma af Klint broke every mold during her life, yet in honoring her legacy, Hilma attempts to jam her into a new one. You're much better off seeking out the next showing of her art near you.
