Critics Consensus

Intoxicating in style but saddled with pacing that feels like purgatory, Her Private Hell is a take-it-or-leave-it proposition from Nicolas Winding Refn that the unconverted will happily decline.

Audience Says

Visually striking but emotionally distant, Her Private Hell may prove just as punishing for audiences.

If you try to take these characters and situations literally, Her Private Hell is tough sledding; if you start looking at them as free-floating genre signifiers, the film becomes considerably more absorbing.

I admired the madness. What it all means, I can only guess, but I was captivated by Mr. Refn’s psyche-mining imagery.

2.5/4

it can feel like an alienating and nihilistic experience. But like every Refn movie, it is undeniably profound, deeply beautiful and perhaps deceptively deep, even as he’s playing dumb.

2/5

It’s sexy, sick and stylish, which is no doubt how he intended it, but a pretentious and laborious B movie without any real, so to speak, drive.

So, Nicolas Winding Refn returns with his visual style intact, impressive in its set-ups, but leaving us with nothing but pretty pictures.

This freaky, opulent fantasia, with kitschy but immaculate production design, tres chic wardrobe, and a sense of vainglorious malaise, doesn’t feel like a challenging, coherent comeback for Refn.

A tough movie to recommend to general audience but IYKYK NWR it’s an imaginative narrative, stunning world building, atmospheric, metaphor driven, thread of hero path, pepper in Argento and Lynch, no answers but the clues are all there.

I watched this sort of actively hating it but about a third of the way through it clicked for me

IT'S POLARIZING AF and it happily wears that with pride.
