Stanley Kauffmann The New Republic The general texture of the film is constantly engaging-the way that these people, long accustomed to abuse and disadvantage, have made for themselves an accommodating and comfortable culture. Aug 8, 2012 Full Review Farran Smith Nehme New York Post There are moments of wry humor, and of improbable beauty, in the dust blowing over a riverbank or even the blinking light over an emergency-room door. Rated: 2.5/4 Jun 29, 2012 Full Review Noel Murray AV Club The movie is vibrant and modern, and doesn't treat Miigr as a mute, unknowable alien. Rated: B+ Jun 28, 2012 Full Review Vladan Petkovic Cineuropa The non-professional actors are excellent, the music is cleverly subtle so as not to accentuate the loudness of Roma life too obviously, with camera and editing also at a top level. Aug 12, 2020 Full Review Avi Offer NYC Movie Guru A somber, melancholic drama with emotionally raw performances by its non-professional actors. Rated: 8.26/10 Jun 27, 2012 Full Review Rex Roberts Film Journal International A portrait of a denigrated people disguised as revenge tragedy, Gypsy is a window onto a way of life rarely glimpsed by outsiders.
