Philippa Hawker The Age (Australia) 10/12/2007
It is a mysterious, free-associating accumulation of images of violence, beauty and absurdity that confounded those who saw it then and confounds viewers still. Go to Full Review
Bob Baker Time Out 06/24/2006
[It's] a documentary rendering of the dream state, of dream logic... and/or a contrivance by two ambitious young Spaniards to offer as much outrageousness as an artistic alibi can cover. Go to Full Review
Caryn James New York Times 03/25/2006
5/5
This is the avant-garde masterpiece with the razor across an eyeball and dead donkeys sprawled across pianos. Go to Full Review
Andrew Collins Radio Times 07/01/2024
5/5
The term "surreal" is nowadays used as a critical cover-all, but in this case director Luis Buñuel and co-writer Salvador Dalí were setting the pace. Go to Full Review

4.5/5
Buñuel scrupulously respects certain conventions of classical continuity and linkage, creating a certain, disquieting narrative sense among these fragments from the unconscious. Go to Full Review

James C @RT81647561 Mar 14 It is a waste of time. It tries to shock but is simply nonsense. See more Caleb L @RT83793999 Oct 5 A really amazing look at early surrealism horror that still holds up today, even if the pacing is a little slower. See more Tonatiuh C @tonaman Sep 3 Empecé a ver Un perro Andaluz con el ánimo de quien empieza a leer un poema de Garcia Lorca y estaba contento con esa experiencia hasta el final cuando salió en una toma de espaldas Salvador Dalí mirando el horizonte en la playa en su clásica actitud arrogante, inmediatamente después aparece el personaje femenino y empiezan a caminar y se encuentran la cajita misteriosa, es hasta ahí donde podemos darle algún sentido a las imágenes que vimos anteriormente (si es lo que queremos…) See more Alexsander F @Aelxs 10/18/2024 Um filme brillante de cunho surrealista dos eminentes Buñuel e Salvador Dali, é o cinema experimental e bizarro, mas um tanto quanto lúdico e imaginário. See more Christian K @ckacar 03/25/2024 You could certainly call it disturbing, bizarre, and weird. Could you imagine dreaming that your girls armpit hair replaced your mouth? See more Frank P @FrankieP543 11/06/2023 I saw this as part of an intro to a David Bowie concert back in the 80's. Fascinating with the exception of the revolting eyeball footage. Would never want to see it again. See more Read all reviews
