Woman at War Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Reader
Andrea Gronvall
Strikingly original and immensely entertaining.
AWFJ.org
Susan Wloszczyna
There are running gags... But there is also human compassion among those who help the leading lady along the way.
The Film Experience
Nathaniel Rogers
Tense, twisty, and provocative.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
Serious and comic at the same time, the immensely likable Icelandic film Woman at War is a human-scaled superhero story.
Baltimore Magazine
Max Weiss
There are wonderful twists and surprises along the way, none of which I will spoil here. Suffice it to say, Woman at War had me gripped and delighted all the way through.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
at War" exudes a puckish sense of humor even as it deals with dire matters.
San Francisco Chronicle
Walter V. Addiego
The director's admiration and affection for Halla is clear, as are his activist sympathies, and they are put across with a lightness and a mild absurdity that make for a warmer experience than the material suggests.
Washington Post
Ann Hornaday
It's a reflection of Erlingsson's confidence, both in his audience and his own filmmaking skills, that he leaves the final interpretation up to us.
IndieWire
David Ehrlich
An artful fable that examines what it really means to save the world, Benedikt Erlingsson's "Woman at War" is the rarest of things: A crowd-pleaser about climate change.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
Whenever you start thinking that the movie is one thing or the other, Mr. Erlingsson switches tones blithely, keeping you wondering what the next development will be. The result isn't perfect, but it's joyously audacious.
New York Magazine/Vulture
David Edelstein
Erlingsson has a magnetic heroine in Geirharðsdóttir, who's lithe and athletic without being a show off, and underplays as a good soldier would.
RogerEbert.com
Tomris Laffly
Cinematically and philosophically rewarding from start to finish.
Polygon
Karen Han
Woman at War is a smart delight.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
Not to get all alliterative about it, but "Woman at War" is something wonderful.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
Approaching weighty themes with a very light touch, Benedikt Erlingsson's "Woman at War" is an environmental drama wrapped in whimsical comedy and tied with a bow of midlife soul-searching.
Slant Magazine
Ben Lambert
It balances its various modes so carefully and efficiently that it achieves a graceful unity, if a strange one at that.
National Newspaper Publishers Association
Dwight Brown
A funny and delightful message movie that's never preachy. It's immensely clever and always sticking a finger-in-the-eye of the establishment.
Village Voice
Bilge Ebiri
Beneath the playful surfaces - musical interludes, quirky neighbors, happy smiley eco-terrorists, Rube Goldbergian sabotage attempts - lie some uncomfortable truths about citizenship, family, and privilege.
The Hollywood Reporter
Jordan Mintzer
Offbeat, poignant and visually exquisite.
Variety
Jay Weissberg
Is there anything rarer than an intelligent feel-good film that knows how to tackle urgent global issues with humor as well as a satisfying sense of justice?
