Manor House Ratings & Reviews
Loud and Clear Reviews
Harry Solomons
It is, no doubt, a cinematic accomplishment to be admired, but one that carries with it an enormous caveat: this is by no means an easy watching experience.
Filmmaker Magazine
Vadim Rizov
Malmkrog is, in its own stubbornly committed way, the most "relevant" movie I watch during this parodic festival season.
In Review Online
Evan Morgan
Malmkrog's dialogue elucidates precious little about time, place or character, and ... plays, finally, like another tired feat of performance art masochism
Always Good Movies
Filipe Freitas
Puiu was never more obstinate and futile than in Manor House.
Los Angeles Times
Carlos Aguilar
Even if some segments are invigoratingly thought-provoking in the same manner that a young student feels engaging with classical thinkers for the first time, the format's lack of stimuli beyond cutting between speakers soon turns tedious
AV Club
A.A. Dowd
Was it possible, [ filmmaker Cristi] Puiu purportedly asked, to make something dramatically compelling out of a collection of dense, highbrow conversations? Malmkrog suggests the answer may be a resounding "Nyet."
New York Times
A.O. Scott
Imagine a Chekhov play without drama, an Oscar Wilde farce without humor, a Visconti film without desire, or a very long party at the home of a distant acquaintance, and you will have some idea of "Malmkrog," Cristi Puiu's latest film.
Backseat Mafia
Rob Aldam
An impeccably crafted and a studiously mannered chamber drama.
(All (Parentheses)) (Substack)
Keith Uhlich
Puiu makes hilarious comedies at which I never once laugh, and this is among his bleakest and blackest farces.
Film Inquiry
Soham Gadre
Christi Puiu orchestrates a classic Buñuelian premise with abject sternness... but a few solid cracks find themselves showing through anyway. Malmkrog is an elaborate and rewarding straight-faced joke.
Slant Magazine
Ben Flanagan
It all has the makings of a game of Clue, but the mysteries here are linguistic.
The Hollywood Reporter
Boyd van Hoeij
It is uncompromising filmmaking, certainly, but also insular filmmaking that will make a tiny little circle of intellectual cinephiles very happy while leaving everyone else - this critic included - completely cold.
Variety
Jay Weissberg
Perhaps if the voluminous script were first made required reading, before watching, then more people could engage with the cascade of non-stop theorizing while the film rolls on.
IONCINEMA.com
Nicholas Bell
While those appreciative of international art-house inclinations will surely find many facets of these discussions fascinating, Puiu has delivered a film which may be as alienating with language as his 2010 title Aurora was with silence.
