Dionar Hidalgo Algo Más Que Cine Jan 18
6/10
A sharp, abrasive satire of viral fame, elevated by Adèle Exarchopoulos’ deliberately ugly performance. Dupieux provokes and entertains, but the film’s punch fades quickly, leaving more sting than substance. Go to Full Review Brian Orndorf Blu-ray.com Jan 14
B
Sagginess is present, but laughs remain, and Dupieux reaffirms his love of dark personalities experiencing self-made torment, still providing the offering with a few kicks before it concludes. Go to Full Review Diego Batlle Otroscines.com Jan 12
3/5
... brutal and ruthless, yes, but without offering anything particularly groundbreaking about the harmful effects and pathos of fame in the age of viral social media. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Emiliano Basile EscribiendoCine Jan 12
8/10
A biting critique of our need for perpetual provocation, executed with the technical mastery and elegant cynicism that only a cult author like Quentin Dupieux can offer. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Harris Dang In Their Own League Nov 2
4/5
The Piano Accident is another gem by Quentin Dupieux that stands out due to a brilliant performance by Adele Exarchopoulos and Dupieux’s insistence in showcasing the darkness of human behaviour via chauvinism and social media without pulling his punches. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
