David Lewis San Francisco Chronicle Most glaringly, the film does little in the way of providing important social and political context that informed Beuys' life journey. Rated: 2/4 Mar 5, 2018 Full Review Robert Abele Los Angeles Times Plays like a fan's flip book divorced from meaningful resonance. Feb 22, 2018 Full Review Simon Abrams Village Voice Veiel's refreshingly open-ended approach invites you to find your own answers. Jan 17, 2018 Full Review Gisela Savdie El Heraldo Reinforced by his features, and his expressive eyes, Beuys could make a mockery of anything in front of him. [Full Review in Spanish] Aug 28, 2020 Full Review Matthew Roe Film Threat Beuys is a sublime contemplation on the art and artist as a singular subject, achieved through a combination of technical experimentation and strong recurring motifs. Rated: 4/5 Apr 2, 2018 Full Review Sherilyn Connelly SF Weekly With a few tweaks here and there, it could easily be taken for an entirely made-up documentary about a made-up person. It's not, but both his Beuys and Beuys hit many archetypal beats. Mar 8, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews
