Critic Reviews
-
Michael O'Sullivan, Washington Post
Like poetry and music, it isn't so much what it means as how it means. The maze of the artist's endless, haunted hallways will keep you clueless, speechless and quite possibly sleepless, in the manner of all visionaries.
-
Lisa Kennedy, Denver Post
It is either an unparalleled opportunity to witness the work of an artist proclaimed by some the 'most important American artist of his generation.' Or an obligation to witness the work of the artist etc., etc.
-
Tom Maurstad, Dallas Morning News
Trapped in a seat while the three-hour Cremaster 3 goes on (and on), you feel more like a prisoner than a participant.
-
John Habich, Minneapolis Star Tribune
The hypnotic imagery and fragmentary tale explore the connections between place and personal identity.
-
Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly
The filmmaker ascends, literally, to the Olympus of the art world, but he would have done well to end this flawed, dazzling series with the raising of something other than his own cremaster.
