Critics' reviews

"A fever dream brought to you by the dynamic duo of Luis Buñuel and Salvador Dali (...) You’ve seen a Dali painting, right? Yeah. So, like that, but live action, and a movie."

Ciara Wardlow: Film School Rejects
"This is the avant-garde masterpiece with the razor across an eyeball and dead donkeys sprawled across pianos."

Caryn James: The New York Times
"Luis Buñuel began his movie career with the most notorious opening sequence in movie history."

J. Hoberman: Village Voice
"A movie like this is a tonic. It assaults old and unconscious habits of moviegoing."

Roger Ebert: Chicago Sun-Times
"Un Chien Andalou more than confirms Buñuel’s voluptuous obsession with sin, his infatuation with the link between sex and death and Catholicism’s anti-pleasure crusades"

Ed Gonzalez: Slant
"[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."

Bob Baker: Time Out
