Hannah Cronk Film Threat By the end, you may not have all the answers, but you will have experienced something rare: a story that makes the absurd feel human and the strange feel strangely beautiful. Rated: 8/10 Aug 29, 2025 Full Review Sarah Dehena MovieJawn Overall, The Fantastic Gollum Affairs is stylistically enjoyable, and there are genuine moments of humorous absurdity. However, the execution of the story and overall pacing of the film leaves a lot to be desired. Aug 28, 2025 Full Review Avi Offer NYC Movie Guru A quirky, absurdist comedy that's low on laughs and runs out of steam too quickly. Aug 26, 2025 Full Review Alan Zilberman Spectrum Culture The science fiction and comedy ably mixes observation with the absurd. Audiences will also remember a violent physical gag that happens not once, but three times, a gleeful reminder that blood is the funniest bodily fluid. Sep 27, 2023 Full Review Courtney Small That Shelf A wild comedic ride from its opening frames, The Fantastic Golem Affairs works best when it reveals in the absurdity of the mystery Juan is trying to solve. Jul 25, 2023 Full Review Ricardo Rosado Fotogramas An adventure in which there is no shortage of sentimental relationships on the edge of the abyss, mysterious secret public service companies, pianos falling from the sky and, luckily for everyone, Javier Botet. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 4/5 Jun 22, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews
