The Gallerist Ratings & Reviews
NPR
Aisha Harris
The ensemble is stacked and they all seem to be having a blast. Layer in some commentary about art, commerce, and influencer culture, and there's plenty here to take in.
Rachel's Reviews (YouTube)
Rachel Wagner
Great cast but the kind of cringe comedy you dread at Sundance. It's just not funny
Refinery29
Kathleen Newman-Bremang
It's complicated and uncomfortable and compulsively watchable.
Geek Vibes Nation
Dillon Gonzales
she was compelled to make a film that explores the nature of artistic purity versus compromise, the maddening nature of influencer culture, and so much more-all done with a piercing, satiric touch that keeps you giggling through the madness.
The Film Stage
Caleb Hammond
More Velvet Buzzsaw than The Square, The Gallerist suffers from piling on the references and refusing to give audiences a chance to breathe.
Inverse
Lyvie Scott
The Gallerist is a lot of things: a campy, claustrophobic showcase, a vibes-based backstage dramedy... Its value is in the eye of the beholder, but it won't serve to dismiss it outright.
MovieWeb
Zachary Lee
This feels like a treatise masquerading as a movie.
Collider
Ross Bonaime
Despite a game cast and a clever concept, The Gallerist is neither a biting critique nor is it a successful comedy - it's just bland art.
Vanyaland
Nick Johnston
It's a funny, deeply personal work about artistic compromise and the dirtiness of the whole charade
Next Best Picture
Daniel Howat
The film's observations about the art world and critics are shallow and obvious, never deepening into anything richer.
Silver Screen Riot
Matt Oakes
It's all in service of a very mild, unfunny critique: that the art world is phony, if not outright felonious.
Fresh Fiction
Courtney Howard
Ridiculously ruthless, audaciously astute and outrageously funny, Yan's salient, sun-bleached heist comedy is a bold, innovative spin on genre-blending filmmaking.
New York Post
Johnny Oleksinski
Yet another stale art-world satire with nothing to say except that collectors are pretentious nuts.
TheWrap
Matt Donato
It's far-fetched and diabolical in the right moments, however stunted the overall execution becomes ... Perhaps not the perfect score, but a nifty, noxious endeavor nonetheless.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Bilge Ebiri
I found myself charmed and fully invested in it. The film's poppy vibrancy, its mood of absurdist anguish, its sheer velocity won me over.
RogerEbert.com
Robert Daniels
Let me be clear: Cathy Yan's absurdist art world thriller "The Gallerist" is pretty dreadful.
The Hollywood Reporter
Richard Lawson
What reads as fun on paper -- Natalie Portman plays a desperate Miami gallery owner trying to pass off a dead body as conceptual art -- is rendered clumsy and inert on screen.
The Daily Beast
Nick Schager
An irredeemably obvious and one-note affair that says everything in its first 10 minutes and spends the remainder of its time vainly trying to drum up humor from a wan Weekend at Bernie's-esque scenario.
Variety
Peter Debruge
Facile but fun... The movie is full of art-world in-jokes, but breezes right past its many plot holes, which are more conspicuous than the slashes in Lucio Fontana's "Spatial Concept" canvases.
IndieWire
Ryan Lattanzio
One of those movies where the actors are having all the fun, clearly enamored with the chance at working together, while they forget to let the audience in on the entertainment.
