Nicole Armour Film Comment Magazine The director emphasizes the fragile and invisible, the small specks of matter that make up the whole. Nov 7, 2013 Full Review Marjorie Baumgarten Austin Chronicle The film's apparent simplicity is, in large measure, its charm and its universal appeal. Rated: 3.5/5 Jul 22, 2011 Full Review Joe Williams St. Louis Post-Dispatch The God's-eye view becomes mesmerizing when we stop insisting that the film flatter us and just enjoy a quiet ride on the cycle. Rated: 3/4 Jul 15, 2011 Full Review Mattie Lucas From the Front Row This is powerful and confident filmmaking, a kind of cinematic poem that stares deep into the human soul and emerges with a quietly moving and deeply meaningful experience. Rated: 4/4 Aug 5, 2019 Full Review Sean Axmaker Turner Classic Movies Online It's both an embrace of the comfort of ritual and certainly and acknowledgement of the magic of the unexpected and the accidental bringing change to routine. Dec 17, 2011 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews Whose images of everyday life in the sticks makes for hypnotic viewing. Rated: A- Nov 7, 2011 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member 93% of critics liked it. Way too arty (?!) for me.....90mins watching goats. No dialogue. Challenging! Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Brilliant ~ Beautiful ~ Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member pre?o majú kozy tendenciu plha? sa na najvyie poloené miesta v dosahu? Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member An artistic and mesmerising movie. Slow paced and dialogue free which pulls you in and enchants you. A chilled out movie to watch. If you are expecting entertainment and action then go elsewhere. This is more poetic and arty. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member It might have had rave reviews but I found it boring and kept thinking of more productive things I could have been doing rather than sitting in a cinema watching pretty pictures that went on and on. I longed for some dialogue and a bit of fictional storytelling. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member 90-minute ambient Rube Goldberg machine.
