Leda is not for everyone. It’s not for people expecting the standard three-act story of innocent expectation, violent conflict, and brutal resolution. It is, a beautiful film, from the carefully crafted camera angles to the creative costuming.

Rated: 3/5

A wordless, widescreen, B&W enigma—in 3-D yet! It reimagines the ancient “Leda and the Swan” myth as a morbid period piece located somewhere between Edward Gorey, Maya Deren, “Incident at Owl Creek,” and Eraserhead.

What She Said

The black and white, wordless “ambient” horror delights. Director Samuel Tressler IV’s seductive style is grand and natural, a fascinating trip

Rated: 4/4

Film Threat

It is a bold, dazzling cinematic experiment that is as heartbreaking as it is surreal.

Rated: 10/10

North Shore Movies

Director/co-writer Samuel Tressler IV clearly doesn’t want to tell the audience what these images mean, allowing the viewer to make whatever connections and interpretations make sense with only the myth of Leda and the Swan as a prompt.

Rated: 2.5/5

Hey, Have You Seen ...?

It's definitely not the sort of thing you'd want to walk into blind off the street, but those already interested in Greek mythology and poetically abstract films should at least appreciate the effort if not the whole package.

Rated: 6/10

Painful to watch. Boring and slow. Arty but not in a good way. Don't bother.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars
