Wendy Ide Screen International While Lagarde's message is elusive, his talent for crafting arresting and macabre visual imagery is undeniable. Jan 24, 2018 Full Review Boyd van Hoeij Hollywood Reporter The film morphs from something oddball but nonetheless semi-realistic into a disquietingly strange tale featuring a talking octopus and a revolution that might be at once political and intestinal. Sep 18, 2017 Full Review Kevin N. Laforest Extra Beurre 2018 est encore jeune, mais All You Can Eat Bouddha s'inscrit déjà comme une des oeuvres québécoises qui devraient marquer l'année. Apr 10, 2018 Full Review Jaime Fa de Lucas Culturamas It doesn't help that [Ian] Lagarde's approach is somewhere between comedic and serious, generating an undefined atmosphere.

Shant J A cerebral experience wrapped in sociopolitical commentary that just takes you on a ride! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Interesting allegory on our society and relationship with the third world, damaged by a too slow pacing and too cryptic surrealism. Overall, an interesting view, that requires both insight and patience. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Read all reviews
