Review of The Immigrant (2013)

By Geoff Pevere (572) for Globe and Mail (2,419) on 05 Jun 2014

Visually evokes Coppola’s Godfather Part II and Leone’s Once Upon a Time in America, but in its utterly irony-free melodramatic sincerity…

Review of The Immigrant (2013)

By David Berry (137) for National Post (1,405) on 04 Jun 2014

Gray is one of the most deliberate of American filmmakers, capable of turning an underground beating by the cops into a scene of two-toned…

Review of The Immigrant (2013)

By Peter Howell (1,731) for Toronto Star (3,601) on 04 Jun 2014

At times, Khondji's golden portraiture can make the characters seem encased in amber. But there's a tremendous payoff for the patient…

Review of The Immigrant (2013)

By Josh Larsen (2,042) for LarsenOnFilm (1,412) on 04 Jun 2014

the old-timey aesthetic here is so overwrought the characters seem stuck in prehistoric amber…

Review of The Immigrant (2013)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 02 Jun 2014

A very melodramatic picture...yet it's remarkably evocative and compelling, almost compulsively watchable…

Review of The Immigrant (2013)

By Donald Clarke (1,051) for Irish Times (1,391) on 01 Jun 2014

If the film were the pilot for an HBO series then you would probably stay tuned for the second episode…

Review of The Immigrant (2013)

By Leonard Maltin (609) for leonardmaltin.com (584) on 01 Jun 2014

One of The Immigrant's primary assets is its texture: a rich fabric of sights and sounds that evoke the look and feel of New York's underbelly…

Review of The Immigrant (2013)

By Kimberley Jones (866) for Austin Chronicle (7,653) on 28 May 2014

The Immigrant is two hours long, but I stayed even longer in my seat, through the credits, still in thrall to it all…

Review of The Immigrant (2013)

By G. Allen Johnson (514) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 28 May 2014

An astonishingly beautiful, irresistibly grim movie…

Review of The Immigrant (2013)

By Susan Granger (2,214) for SSG Syndicate (1,551) on 27 May 2014

Slow-paced and sinister, it's a strangely unpredictable period piece that penetrates the soft underbelly illusion of the American experience…

Review of The Immigrant (2013)

By David Thomson (77) for The New Republic (897) on 27 May 2014

This is Gray's most mature work, and the picture raises Cotillard to a select pantheon…

Review of The Immigrant (2013)

By Travis Hopson (923) for Examiner.com (1,617) on 23 May 2014

Cotillard can say more with her expressive eyes than others can with their entire bodies, and she gives more depth to Ewa than the screenplay…

Review of The Immigrant (2013)

By James Verniere (1,180) for Boston Herald (1,433) on 22 May 2014

Relentlessly downbeat, but lavishly shot and Oscar winner Cotillard, who often resembles the screen goddesses of the silent era, is magnificent…

Review of The Immigrant (2013)

By Roger Moore (6,008) for Tribune News Service (1,102) on 22 May 2014

Labored, flatly-written, heartlessly acted…

Review of The Immigrant (2013)

By Steven Rea (1,872) for Philadelphia Inquirer (3,920) on 22 May 2014

Marion Cotillard has made her share of unremarkable, if not remarkably bad, films…

Review of The Immigrant (2013)

By Tom Long (1,693) for Detroit News (2,682) on 22 May 2014

It's the stuff of melodrama, elevated by Gray's sure hand and made more by Phoenix and Cotillard, lovers and haters and something beyond…

Review of The Immigrant (2013)

By Mark Dujsik (2,093) for Mark Reviews Movies (2,037) on 22 May 2014

The story is pure melodrama, but director James Gray approaches the material in such a subdued way that we might be fooled otherwise…

Review of The Immigrant (2013)

By Ray Pride (544) for Newcity (539) on 21 May 2014

Memories upon memories upon memories upon legend upon lore upon sorrow upon sacrifice and ache: there is much of another time in James Gray's…

Review of The Immigrant (2013)

By Bill Goodykoontz (2,123) for Arizona Republic (3,909) on 21 May 2014

The Immigrant is not exactly the feel-good hit of the summer, but it is a compelling tale of what, in the end, can only be called survival…

Review of The Immigrant (2013)

By Laura Clifford (2,742) for Reeling Reviews (4,376) on 21 May 2014

The film's last shot is full of irony, a naturally composed split screen of hope and despair…
