Critics Consensus: It's messy, overlong, and a touch melodramatic, but those flaws pale before Incendies' impressive acting and devastating emotional impact.

Reviews

The Indian Express

Rohan Naahar

Before he was surfing the sand dunes of Arakkis, Denis Villeneuve was telling a more searing story about overzealous characters waging a holy war in the desert.

It is, indisputably, Villeneuve's best film. [Full review in Spanish]

Not an easy watch by any means, but Incendies is a haunting, sometimes harrowing, intimate epic.
