Critic Reviews
-
Scott Foundas, Variety
A waterlogged would-be epic, lacking the emotion, narrative invention and visual brilliance that mark [Vincent] Ward's best films.
-
Michael Rechtshaffen, Hollywood Reporter
River Queen is a period drama filled with some striking imagery but which ultimately keeps viewer involvement at an unfathomable distance.
-
Anton Bitel, Eye for Film
takes on the qualities of a disjointed vision, sometimes languid, sometimes violent, but always seeming to be only half-glimpsed on the threshold of sleep.
-
Urban Cinefile Critics, Urban Cinefile
An ambitious film from the talented, serious-minded Vincent Ward, River Queen takes us into the magnificent heart of New Zealand, both geographically and spiritually.
