"5/5 --- A fairytale of death-wish yearning and erotic submission"
- Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian
"4,5/5 --- [Marion] Cotillard is at her very best"
- Jennie Kermode, Eye For Film
"Frozen meets Mulholland Drive"
- Jordan Mintzer, The Hollywood Reporter
"Casts a creepy spell that lingers and even deepens in the mind long after it's over. As only the best spells do."
- Ryan Lattanzio, IndieWire
"Mesmerizing -- Infused with a lot of psychosexual energy"
- Elisa Guimarães, Collider
"Countless adaptations and appropriations – among them Disney's Frozen – have diluted the sheer weirdness of Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale The Snow Queen, a tale of good and evil that is also one young girl's investigative quest for a missing boyfriend who has come under the influence of an older woman. In her ravishingly shot fourth feature, set in the mid 1970s, Lucile Hadzihalilovic takes the boy out of the picture. Told through the allusive frame of a female teenage runaway's encounter with a movie star diva played by Marion Cotillard, who is shooting a new version of The Snow Queen, this is a story of womanhood at a crossroads: its two characters somehow become one, a before and an after, slowly circling, testing, and taking stock of one another."
