	Author	Review
United States	Stephen Dalton The Hollywood Reporter	"An (...) admirably unorthodox and sporadically gripping shaggy dog story."	POS
United States	Manohla Dargis The New York Times	"A Hungarian revenge fantasy that's like nothing you've seen on screen before."	POS
United States	Guy Lodge Variety	"Kornel Mundruczo's sixth and best feature is an emotionally rousing, technically masterful man-vs.-dog adventure."	POS
United States	Jessica Kiang IndieWire	"An arresting allegory for racial and ethnic bigotry that actually starts to work better as a film as the directly allegorical elements recede in favor of a cleverly eerie, resonant horror-movie vibe."	POS
United States	Farran Smith Nehme New York Post	"Director Kornél Mundruczó goes big with allegory, violence, drama and sentiment, and the results are riveting. (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of five)"	POS
