Homo Sapiens Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Reader
Andrea Gronvall
Geyrhalter piques the imagination with images of decay: towns, malls, theaters, and hospitals, all deserted, unnamed, and overrun by foliage and wildlife.
Eye for Film
Jennie Kermode
Geyrhalter has created one of the most powerful cinematic wake up calls since Charlton Heston stood and cried out at the Statue of Liberty. Here, there are not even apes.
Brooklyn Magazine
Benjamin Mercer
An eerily serene whistle-stop tour of abandoned built environments.
New York Times
Glenn Kenny
Each individual shot creates a frisson of desolation that resonates far beyond the facile irony suggested by the movie's title.
rec.arts.movies.reviews
Louis Proyect
A documentary that is far more frighteningly dystopian than any Mad Max movie because it is real.
AV Club
Ignatiy Vishnevetsky
One might argue that 20 minutes or so is enough, but what Homo Sapiens offers in its succession of carefully framed shots is sometimes too tantalizing to resist.
Village Voice
Michael Sicinski
Instead of uncovering artifacts from long ago, Homo Sapiens shows us our own relics in the making.
