Val Reviews
Memories both happy and tragic from family life, and his marriage to (and subsequent separation from) fellow thespian Joanne Whalley, are addressed with remarkable candour.
Unashamedly subjective, Val is a unique treatise on the art of acting by one of the industry’s most enigmatic figureheads.
It’s a intensely personal film with a deep sense of longing, not so much for a career that once was, but for a chance to finally tell his life story in his own words.
Getting poor reviews is likely hard for any actor, but Kilmer never let them define him. Nor did he ever let anything stand in his way of being his unequivocal self at every stage of his life, and today, we have the footage to see it all.
Tiptoes past the actor's fame, falling into autohagiography.
A fascinating look about the actor whose life and times took a tragic turn.
Embodies not only the immense talent but also the rare empathy that Val Kilmer brought to his most invested characters.
Mr. Kilmer is slated to be in the upcoming Top Gun: Maverick, which was originally slated to be released in 2020. Cant wait to see the Iceman again. He can be my wingman anytime!
You grow surprisingly attached to Val Kilmer as this goes along, and prepared to indulge his pretentious side as he grapples for a state of grace.
Are we to feel bad for him or happy he has kept us so entertained over the years? It's unclear and admittedly, this makes Val even more interesting as perhaps both coexist ...
Val is an affectionate film, and even more, a self-affectionate film. It does just as much obscuring and bending as it does revealing.
In "Val," we see him low and sad and sick, but it's still only the face he wants to put forward. He remains, somewhat triumphantly, off in his own zone.
It's an experience that is introspective in itself, and in turn forces you to be introspective in the healthiest way possible.
You don't have to be a huge Val Kilmer fan to engage with the documentary "Val."
Sourced from decades of the Hollywood star's private home videos, the new documentary Val depicts the rise and fall of infamously "difficult" actor Val Kilmer with charm and intimacy - even if it's a self-serving portrait.
The new documentary on the inscrutable Val Kilmer is an exercise in distilled subjectivity. There isn't much in the way of breathing room or impartiality since Val exists within its own cocoon - the point of view of Val Kilmer.
The truth is that Val is not self-indulgent at any point in the documentary. [Full review in Spanish]
A beautiful documentary that portrays the humand beyond the actor.[Full Review in Spanish]
[Kilmer] opens up his vault and himself to our gaze and judgment. The film is undeniably compelling as a result.
VAL is such a unique piece of self reflection of an extraordinary artist and a soulful man. What I enjoyed most is the film's authenticity and personal nature, given it contains mostly archival footage he shot himself.
