Jonathan Rosenbaum Chicago Reader Jun 14, 2022
Nothing cuts very deep, and at times the film seems to be all over the place (Torres worked with five others on the script); but the surface glitter–aided by Ricardo Aronovich’s cinematography–keeps it fetching. Go to Full Review

3/4
Celestial Clockwork is a riotous carnival of music, colors, witchery, sexuality and magic. It's pitched at approximately the same level of seriousness as Flying Down to Rio, and if you approach it in that spirit, it's infectious and funny. Go to Full Review

This film is an entertaining and colorful spectacle and with enough verve to make it seem inventive, even if it isn't. Go to Full Review
