Seneca Ratings & Reviews
Deadline Hollywood Daily
Stephanie Bunbury
As a performance, it has at least the strength of dogged determination. As a film, however, Seneca is almost unendurable.
Critic's Notebook
Sarah Manvel
Pretentious teenagers who fancy themselves deep thinkers and film viewers who love an insane time will swallow this beautiful monstrosity whole. God bless "Seneca" and all who sail in her, and may it not be the last time we see Julian Sands on screen.
In Review Online
Luke Gorham
Seneca - On the Creation of Earthquakes is roughly as audience-unfriendly as films come, sometimes to its benefit, but mostly otherwise.
The Playlist
Anna Bogutskaya
John Malkovich is an actor so adept at delivering seething, blistering contempt that he makes the film almost watchable.
FirstShowing.net
Alex Billington
Just as Seneca reminds us in the film, his thoughts do not deserve to be dismissed because we don't like them or they're not presented inoffensively.
The Hollywood Reporter
Stephen Farber
The problem is with the underlying conception. Schwentke's attempt to create a parable of the decline of the American empire seems mainly forced and fatuous.
