Salt and Fire Ratings & Reviews
RogerEbert.com
Nick Allen
Looking just like a dressed-up Neil Breen joint, Salt and Fire becomes, at its best, Herzog's version of camp; at its worst, unwitting self-parody.
Film Inquiry
Arlin Golden
In imbuing what might otherwise be a straight-forward environmental thriller with his signature sense of artistry, Herzog has succeeded in creating a film without parallel.
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
Salt and Fire is a hodgepodge of inexplicable characters, half-considered ideas, and a rambling plot.
Paste Magazine
Dom Sinacola
Herzog and co. seem totally tone deaf to how gross all of it is, which is much grosser than Gael Garca Bernal screaming about diarrhea, which is actually pretty funny.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
Like something you peer at rather than absorb, "Salt and Fire" is both awful and a tad fascinating.
Variety
Guy Lodge
Werner Herzog's latest half-hearted return to narrative cinema is more excited by its stunning landscape than the life inside it.
We Got This Covered
David James
Audiences unfamiliar with Herzog will be largely baffled by this eccentric and meandering eco-drama, but aficionados will find much to enjoy here.
Blu-ray.com
Brian Orndorf
Perhaps the endeavor doesn't stitch together as cleanly as it could, but it's always 100% Herzog.
Las Vegas Weekly
Josh Bell
The dialogue is written in a sort of rigid formality that completely defeats the actors, although it's hard to tell if the performances are deliberately stilted or just bad.
Entertainment Weekly
Darren Franich
A bad movie but an intriguing vacation slideshow ...
Village Voice
Chris Packham
Despite the bad acting, self-importance and general Herzogian ridiculousness, the director actually has a deep sense of beauty ...
IndieWire
David Ehrlich
The worst movie that Werner Herzog has ever made.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
A tedious and ludicrous eco-thriller.
Slant Magazine
Chuck Bowen
Salt and Fire is a doodle, suggesting an assemblage of ecological riffs and fantasias that Werner Herzog may have entertained while making Into the Inferno.
Consequence
Sarah Kurchak
Is this an ecological thriller? A searing look at mankind's destruction of our natural environment? A meditation on how ultimately powerless we are in the face of that same embattled nature? A comedy? An exercise in self-amusement? All of the above?
ComingSoon.net
Chris Alexander
Director Werner Herzog's latest mediation on man vs. nature is a divisive and surreal eco-thriller.
The Film Stage
Ethan Vestby
Salt and Fire's strange rhythms are so in-tune with Shannon's own performance and inherent presence that he seems to emerge as something of a co-author.
The Playlist
Oliver Lyttelton
Perhaps the best that can be said of Salt and Fire is that its flaws are wholly Herzog's.
Slant Magazine
Jake Cole
The final act is one of the strongest sustained sequences of cinema Werner Herzog has crafted in some time.
The Hollywood Reporter
Deborah Young
Too much salt, too little pepper in a silly eco fantasy.
