Peter Bradshaw Guardian Nov 8, 2012
2/5
Lanthimos is such a distinctive film-maker and nothing he does is without interest - but this is a misfire. Go to Full Review
Tim Robey Daily Telegraph (UK) Nov 8, 2012
3/5
The movie's morbidly funny once you get the hang of it, and climaxes deftly, but for too long Lanthimos feels like he's stalling for no especial purpose. Go to Full Review

The acting is excellent throughout, each performer managing to play up the comic aspects with a new definition of deadpan. Go to Full Review

Han S Nov 9, 2018 There is a mesmerising element considering the photography that made me really eager, in the beginning, to see what is going on but it turns out to be a flat and quite boring film. See more
Rey M Nov 4, 2018 I love the dark, disturbing, surreal, absurd style of Lanthimos, I really do! But in "Alps" something is missing. A structure, a shape, a meaning. What it misses is some glue to keep all the strangeness together. See more
Hagrid R Feb 1, 2017 It has a plot that is inspired, and delightfully surreal. But the execution of it is dreadful. The imagination does not run wild in Alps. Visual speaking, it is a huge letdown. Everyone in the film seems half dead, sleepwalking through the film. Grieving with death is a concept that only makes sense if it is dealt with accurately. Now, I know that Alps is a surrealist piece, but it just didn't resonate with me emotionally. It didn't hit me where it clearly wanted to. See more
