      What to Know

      Critics Consensus

      Jupiter's Moon beams with energetic style, but loses the plot as it meanders through a series of ideas without much discernible payoff.

      Audience Member I can see how most people would be frustrated by this film, but it is fantastic. The score, the cinematography are sublime. The story is interesting as well, although it's not standard fare. Thought provoking and allegorical - not what today's consumer is used to. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Highly original political allegory. Provocative and dramatic. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review mauro l Two films in one. The realism of the European crisis (the reactionary and nationalist response to illegal immigration, terrorism, rampant corruption), and the fantastic of a parabola on the dynamics of faith, on guilt and atonement, on the need for purification of a world increasingly chaotic and indecipherable. But these two aspects, Budapest as "Blade Runner" and mystical-religious obsessions ostentated as the only form of salvation (we would have renounced to look towards the High, contenting ourselves with a horizontal dimension), never integrate, rather they cancel each other with null result. (Mauro Lanari) Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Just watched Jupiter's moon. It is a baffling and perplexing film in equal measure. It borders on the allegorical and has an abundance of religious imagery and New Testament references to suggest the the sci-fi category doesn't quite cut it. Locations and characters suited to Old Testament end of days stories where humanity is barren and without hope,direction or compassion. Yes the film is unbelievable but I think part of its charm and message is that that 'not all questions have to be answered' and it is on this poiniant note that the story concludes with the count down in English from a child learning the new language- masterful. I loved it. I loved it!! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member JUPTER'S MOON MANQUE PROBABLEMENT UN PEU D'AUDACE, COMPARÉ À WHITE GOD, ET LE FILM COMMENCE À SE PERDRE PAS MAL RENDU À LA MOITIÉ DU RÉCIT ET C'EST TRÈS DOMMAGE CAR CE NOUVEAU MÉTRAGE DU RÉALISATEUR HONGROIS KORNÉL MUNDRUCZÓ POSSÈDE DÉFINITIVEMENT PLUSIEURS BONNES IDÉES.

      J. R. Jones Chicago Reader Astounding. Apr 17, 2020 Full Review Simran Hans Observer (UK) [An] ambitious, enjoyable sci-fi experiment ... Rated: 3/5 Jan 7, 2018 Full Review Kevin Maher Times (UK) Some virtuoso visual imagery and poignant contemporary themes go searching for a plot and proper characters in this hit-and-miss Hungarian drama. Rated: 3/5 Jan 5, 2018 Full Review Víctor López G. Espinof 'Jupiter's Moon' ends up in a limbo that will prevent it from being remembered either as a social drama or as an anomaly in the contemporary fantasy cinema. [Full Review in Spanish] Aug 6, 2019 Full Review Alexa Dalby Dog and Wolf It's good that this subject has been done at all but ultimately strangely disappointing. Rated: 3/5 Aug 27, 2018 Full Review James Marsh South China Morning Post While certainly not for all tastes, Mundruczó's provocative and hugely ambitious head-trip proves both ravishing and rewarding to those who yield to its powers.
