      Ben Kenigsberg New York Times "Boris Without Beatrice" appears to have something to say about the hubris of the modern business tycoon, but it never coalesces into more than a self-amused goof. Sep 7, 2017 Full Review Ignatiy Vishnevetsky AV Club The movie is undermined by its conceptual maundering and impersonality; it can be clinical and opaque one scene, conventional and over-determined the next. Rated: C+ Sep 6, 2017 Full Review Chuck Bowen Slant Magazine The film offers an oxymoronic parable that's been utilized countless times by cinema, in loose reiterations of A Christmas Carol: The protagonist must learn humility after learning that the world revolves around him. Rated: 2.5/4 Sep 2, 2017 Full Review Diego Lerer Otroscines.com The Canadian director delivers his most formally "traditional" film, but that doesn't stop it from being intriguing or disquieting... [Full review in Spanish] Nov 2, 2022 Full Review C.J. Prince Way Too Indie Fans of Côté's precise, arresting style will find plenty to enjoy, even if it's in strictly formal terms. Rated: 7/10 May 22, 2019 Full Review Javier Ocaña El Pais (Spain) A film that seems the result of having truncated of affectation and supposed strangeness the most mechanical and conventional dramatic arc of redemption in the less ventilated areas of the modern comedy.

      Audience Member Le cinéma de Denis Côté a toujours ce côté intriguant. Boris sans Béatrice ne fait pas exception. Et au moment où je croyais avoir tout compris, on m'a lancé le générique pour me rendre compte que j'avais peut-être rien compris. Pas mon préféré de Côté, mais encore d'une agréable étrangeté.
