The Apostate Ratings & Reviews
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
It's a movie that ultimately may mean more to those raised in heavily Catholic cultures, but it has an engaging prickliness as a satiric peek into the life of a brooding idealist.
Film Comment Magazine
Yonca Talu
Working within a tradition of heightened, impressionistic satire, Veiroj demonstrates a rare aptitude for depicting his distraught protagonist's emotional world.
Newcity
Ray Pride
Histories are spoken, and implied further, specialized knowledge that should not bother his characters to such ends.
Chicago Reader
Leah Pickett
This Spanish-Uruguayan satire about a man struggling to leave his Catholic church in Madrid offers a wry absurdist take on existential crisis without resorting to cliche.
New York Times
Andy Webster
Despite Mr. Veiroj's blithe Buñuel-like disdain for religion, "The Apostate" lacks teeth.
Village Voice
Michael Atkinson
Like Gonzalo, The Apostate is so dry and calm and reflective you can practically hear the director thinking, not too much, that's enough.
Slant Magazine
Clayton Dillard
Federico Veiroj prefers to let Gonzalo off the hook instead of doubling down on his existential quandaries.
