The Future Perfect Ratings & Reviews
Vague Visages
Justine Smith
As we take for granted the ease of our own native tongue, we are perhaps ignoring its full potential.
FF2 Media
Brigid Presecky
The Future Perfect (also known as El Futuro Perfecto) is a charming, honest portrayal of the human's ability to adapt.
Film Comment Magazine
Jonathan Romney
[Nele] Wohlatz offers a perceptive, empathetic, very tender picture of how it might feel to be an 18-year-old Chinese woman arriving in Buenos Aires and working to carve out a new independent life and identity.
The Stranger (Seattle, WA)
Joule Zelman
The charm of this experimental film lies in its intellectual complexity, its lack of pretension, and the obvious intelligence and strength of Xiaobin-the character and the real woman.
The Young Folks
Nathanael Hood
It's powerful and quietly uplifting in a way I haven't seen a prominent European art movie be in quite some time.
New York Times
Glenn Kenny
There is gentle comedy here, and a real rooting interest deriving from Ms. Zhang's committed, never-a-false-note performance. The film's unusual perspective makes it a distinctive and potentially enriching experience.
Village Voice
Aaron Hillis
Each neorealist story thread doubles as a case study for how our ever-shrinking world redefines culture and communication, but played as a downbeat comedy of misunderstandings in which Xiaobin mimics Buster Keaton's expressionless disenchantment.
Shockya.com
Harvey S. Karten
An innovative look at a Chinese immigrant's involvement with a voluntarily homeless person in Buenos Aires.
The Film Experience
Nathaniel Rogers
A must-see if you're at all fascinated with globalism and how the world is shrinking.
Slant Magazine
Clayton Dillard
The Future Perfect has the texture of a novella that keeps reworking the same idea in successively intricate ways.
The Hollywood Reporter
Neil Young
Wryly amusing, intriguingly stylized.
Variety
Jay Weissberg
Such an unpretentious delight that it would be a shame to relegate it to specialty streaming sites.
