Kyle M An essential access to comprehending experimental director Ingmar Bergman’s enrichingly complex storytelling, a rewarding gem in grasping the spiritual intangibility upon existential subjects that dissects a woman’s mid-life crisis from forgone dreams and desires to mentally manifesting regrets that seeds a visually striking, haunting odyssey. Of course, it varies conclusively. (A-) Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/20/25 Full Review thiago s Filme mais ou menos, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são mais ou menos, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/15/25 Full Review Ed . Nurse, heal thyself. This film is, in one word, UNBELIEVABLE. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 08/29/25 Full Review Alain E With spectacular black and white cinematography by Sven Nykvist and monumental performances by Bibi Anderson and Liv Ullmann this is a classic masterpiece. Bergman does not leave any stone unturned. In the beginning we see film unspooling. In the very end we see the movie camera itself recording the final scene. Now for some pieces of criticism: Alma, the nurse, is revealed to be a very unsteady personality, in essence begging for her patient’s approval and recognition. So, it is very unlikely that towards the end, she would have the intellectual capacity and the psychological insight to understand the conflict Liv Ullmann’s character experienced with the birth of her son. Additionally, blind people use their other senses evaluating their environment. Thus, it is hard to accept that Liv Ullmann’s blind husband would be easily fooled when his wife’s nurse offered her lips when the wife was unable to respond. American black and white movies include inflation level abundance of shadows in every scene. Here we have one scene towards the end with Bibi Anderson casting a strong shadow. We have many more reflections in mirrors and other surfaces. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/21/25 Full Review Hao Ian L From the way it is filmed down to the very premise, many modern films owe a great deal to this quintessential and influential pioneer of surrealism that is Persona. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 09/09/25 Full Review Pip S I think that to see and feel this masterpiece you should have seen more than 1000 hours of cinema. Pillar of cinema.
