L'Age d'Or Ratings & Reviews
Vanity Fair
Pare Lorentz
The written synopsis is much more entertaining than the picture, which is a pretentious bore.
LarsenOnFilm
Josh Larsen
...a scandalous attack on all things religious and bourgeois.
Antagony & Ecstasy
Tim Brayton
It was the film that 1930 needed, and decades upon decades later, it still has potency to shock the squares.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
It relentlessly attacks the mores of society.
CinePassion
Fernando F. Croce
Buuel's furies rarely geysered more freely

Eat it up babies.
ReelTalk Movie Reviews
Donald J. Levit
'L'ge d'or' does exhibit its share of the incongruous or dangling, but nevertheless there is connective tissue.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
Co-scripted by Bunuel and Salvador Dali, this seminal work of cinema and masterpiece of surrealism is a scabrous anti-clerical anti-bourgeois tale hinting to the strong poential of film's two most controversial issues in the future, sex and violence
Film Journal International
Daniel Eagan
Groundbreaking surrealist classic
Combustible Celluloid
Jeffrey M. Anderson
Certainly this film will baffle, astound and infuriate all at once.
Filmcritic.com
Jake Euker
an important historical document in the histories of film and art, a work of the rarest poetry
Film Threat
Phil Hall
The surrealist landmark is still worthy of appreciation and admiration.
Reno Gazette-Journal
Mark Robison
Too disjointed, too slow, and the shocks aren't as artful as in Bunuel and Dali's previous masterpiece.
New York Times
Eugene Archer
Mr. Buuel and his co-scenarist, none other than Salvador Dali, have packed just about every-surrealist symbol they could think of into this rebellious epic.
Village Voice
J. Hoberman
Suggests instances of sex and violence far more extreme than any actually represented while contriving effronteries so offhanded you can't believe you've actually seen them.
Film and Felt
Gabe Leibowitz
Genocide, mutilated eyes, a fire at a party that doesn't cause a single guest to blink, murdering a child...we're forced to think about the significance of every scene.
Old School Reviews
John A. Nesbit
Many scenes play like Monty Python sketches, taking pot shots at an uptight society.
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
L'Age d'Or: Where thwarted love must transcend itself in order to win its war against oppression.
