2.5/4
Its acoustic and human elements seldom cohere around its playfully structured story, which justifies the movie’s self-reflexive musical gimmick, but little else. Go to Full Review Kyle Smith Wall Street Journal 6 days ago
Saturated with convincing detail about the world of classical music and film scoring, the movie is a compelling character study marred only by a certain episodic quality. Go to Full Review Bilge Ebiri New York Magazine/Vulture Oct 6, 2026
It captures a universal hesitancy, a very human recognition that putting ourselves out there can upend the pleasant, comforting meaninglessness of our lives. Alex Serian may not always be feeling much, but the film ensures that we do. Go to Full Review Olga Artemyeva ScreenAnarchy 13 min ago
A film made with a lot of love for both music and cinema engraved in it. It’s just too bad that it's also a film that isn’t willing to take any risks when it comes to its human characters. Or canine ones, for that matter. Go to Full Review Serena Seghedoni Loud and Clear Reviews 31 min ago
4.5/5
Anchored by a phenomenal Pedro Pascal and superb technical execution, Behemoth! is a stunning gem of a movie, and it’s not to be missed. Go to Full Review Paula Farmer culturevulture.net 18 hrs ago
Between the p-o-v and the fluctuating timeline and locations, something does get lost in the viewing experience. While “Behemoth” is mostly interesting and engaging, there is also an aspect of uneven tonality and detachment. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
