	Author	Review
United States	Peter Debruge Variety	"Luca Guadagnino weaves a beguiling tale of first love"	POS
United States	Boyd van Hoeij The Hollywood Reporter	"Guadagnino (...) finds exactly the right tone for the material, which is understated and filled with paternal affection."	POS
United States	Gregory Ellwood The Playlist	"It’s almost revolutionary. It’s cinematic art and it will want you to feel as loved as Elio and Oliver feel"	POS
United States	Richard Lawson Vanity Fair	"Luca Guadagnino’s adaptation of a modern gay classic is a wonder."	POS
United States	David Ehrlich IndieWire	"Luca Guadagnino delivers a queer masterpiece"	POS
United States	David Edelstein Vulture	"A Masterpiece. (...) I can’t remember a filmmaker who has captured the essence of midsummer this way, lazy but so vivid that every sound registers. (...) Chalamet gives the performance of the year."	POS
United States	Sara Stewart New York Post	"[It] is already 2017’s gay drama of the year"	POS
United Kingdom	Jordan Hoffman The Guardian	"Luca Guadagnino’s masterful coming-of-age tale of an Italian fling between visiting academic Armie Hammer and professor’s son Timothée Chalamet is a major addition to the queer canon (...) Rating: ★★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United Kingdom	Fionnuala Halligan Screendaily	"Guadagnino tantalises, seduces, teases with a sensuousness which threatens to climax throughout"	POS
United States	James Berardinelli ReelViews	"Is a study in mood and emotion. It’s about living in the moment and capturing that moment. It’s about using the canvas of film to convey to the audience the inner feelings of the characters. 'Call Me by Your Name' is short on dialogue and long on emoting. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"	POS
