Namrata Joshi The New Indian Express Armand begins on an intriguing note but can’t sustain it for long. It piques interest but isn’t satisfying enough. The twists and turns of the plot feel showy and contrived rather than organic... Sep 24, 2024 Full Review Isaac Feldberg RogerEbert.com In a film playing with thriller and melodrama conventions before tipping over into expressive surrealism, hers is a fiercely visceral presence; Reinsve performs as if dancing on the edge of a knife. May 27, 2024 Full Review Leslie Felperin The Hollywood Reporter Armand gets much weirder as it goes on, with choreographed dance sequences and melodramatic revelations that feel contrived and tacked on to make the film more arthouse and less issues-driven-middlebrow. May 24, 2024 Full Review Robert Kojder Flickering Myth Come to find out how disturbed and problematic young Armand is, stay for Renate Reinsve's commanding and, at times, hypnotic performance Rated: 3.5/5 Nov 8, 2024 Full Review Dan Scully ScullyVision It’s “it takes a village” writ large and weaponized. Oct 20, 2024 Full Review Nicolás Medina Montevideo Portal / Latido Beat Armand is not particularly a film that will divide audiences. But it will make them take sides and question many things, some of which will even generate some discomfort or be difficult to put into words. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 8/10 Oct 9, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
