Nicholas Barber TheWrap “The Kingdom” is a rivetingly credible and vivid portrait of organized crime in an area with a long tradition of banditry. Aug 8, 2024 Full Review Josh Slater-Williams indieWire Colonna’s film, co-written with Jeanne Herry, is a riveting, moving take on this narrative. So crucial to its success is that central father and daughter duo, with casting for the film reportedly having taken place over eight months. Rated: B May 28, 2024 Full Review Isaac Feldberg RogerEbert.com Colonna crafts an emotionally fraught family drama, one intensified by its crime thriller framework’s life-and-death stakes without being completely defined by them. May 27, 2024 Full Review Eulàlia Iglesias Caimán Cuadernos de Cine This solid debut film by Julien Colonna distances itself from the inertia of genre films about local mafias to delve into the depths of a clan through the progressive and profound approach of a daughter towards her father. [Full review in Spanish] Jul 26, 2024 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews It dazzles us with its authenticity. Rated: B Jun 11, 2024 Full Review Matthew Turner Next Best Picture A key highlight of “The Kingdom” is the way Colonna successfully mixes the gangster and coming-of-age genres Rated: 6/10 Jun 10, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
