Critics Consensus

An epic screwball adventure teeming with awe-inspiring action set pieces, One Battle After Another is Paul Thomas Anderson's most entertaining film yet while also one of his most thematically rich.

Audience Says

A towering achievement in Paul Thomas Anderson’s already illustrious filmography, One Battle After Another is a cinematic classic of sweeping visual grandeur that deserves to be experienced again and again, on the largest screen possible.

Sergio Burstein

Los Angeles Times

The excellent performances of DiCaprio and Del Toro bring a deep sense of humanism to two characters who, given the dramatic tone employed, always run the risk of coming across as caricatured stereotypes. [Full review in Spanish]

Yes, the revolution has been cinematized. Sometimes it’s a clear vision. Sometimes not.

It is a brilliant mix of chaos and order.

Robert W. Butler

Butler's Cinema Scene

“One Battle After Another” is so diverting that it’s easy to overlook Anderson’s dead-serious ideas about radicalism and the difficulty of keeping one’s idealistic edge in this America of consumer excess and moral erosion. Laugh until you cry.

Rated: B+

Hey, Have You Seen ...?

Anderson knows how to make a three-hour runtime entertaining and every second DiCaprio and Del Toro are on-screen together is a gift from God. [But it] is one very good film that might have been three great ones.

Rated: 8/10

Rough Draft Atlanta

“One Battle After Another” is explosive and incisive – both blunt object and rapier, clear-eyed in its view of this country and all its insidious entrails.

Incredible movie, pacing is great especially in the beginning. Really strong performance all around. Felt grounded and relatable to recent event but with humorous undertones so it didn’t get to serious for any long period of the movie.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Absolutely the best freaking movie we’ve seen in a really long time! Leonardo was exceptional. Benito is so f-ing cool and he brings 100% of his coolness to the screen in this movie. Really every part of this movie was exceptional. Action-packed, strong characters, ridiculously funny (if you have a sense of humor), great story. I could watch it over and over!!
