1950. William Lee, an American expat in Mexico City, spends his days almost entirely alone, except for a few contacts with other members of the small American community. His encounter with Eugene Allerton, an expat former soldier, new to the city, shows him, for the first time, that it might be finally possible to establish an intimate connection with somebody.

Critics Consensus

A phantasmagorical distillation of William S. Burroughs' preoccupations that's by turns meandering and vital, Queer marks one of Daniel Craig's most sterling performances yet.

It goes off the deep end, and the film was never that deep to begin with.

FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)

Back in the 1950s... all of this probably would've been a good deal more interesting. But I got to tell you, today it's not very interesting at all.

This is my favorite Guadagnino film so far.

Less Hat, Moorhead

As it dives deeper into drug-fueled visions, it loses dramatic momentum. It's visually arresting, but Guadagnino finds no equivalent to the charge that Burroughs generates in the best riffing passages of his prose.

The Movie Cricket

Craig turns “Queer” into a portrait of loneliness and longing that transcends whatever tricks the director wants to play.

Rated: 3/4

La Jornada

...Daniel Craig, a refashioned incarnation of agent James Bond, has managed to harmonize the two meanings [of Queer] in his unique destruction of the archetype of dominant masculinity. It is one of his best performances to date. [Full review in Spanish]

Unfortunately, the story was very similar to my current situation in life. But, awesome movie nonetheless. The story reaching ultimate love was undeniable.
