Reviews from Letterboxd:

1. silentdawn – ★★★½
   “Austere, clean, and angular. You see the seams in every matte painting and every constructed set. That nakedness makes Joel Coen’s adaptation unnerving in new ways.”

2. sallyjane – ★★★★★
   “A masterclass in cinematography and acting. Denzel is hypnotic, and Kathryn Hunter steals every scene she’s in.”

3. bratpitty – ★★★½
   “Shakespeare by way of German expressionism. Stark, striking, and incredibly haunting.”

4. nathaxnne – ★★★★
   “Kathryn Hunter’s performance is inhuman. The film feels like a fever dream. Coen’s vision is bold and unique.”

5. johndoe24 – ★★★
   “Technically stunning, but the emotional core didn’t land for me. Still worth watching for the visuals alone.”
