Critics Consensus: The Commune may not stand with Thomas Vinterberg's greatest work, but the end results remain thought-provoking and overall absorbing.

Bay Area Reporter

David Lamble

Shows how tricky this idea is to pull off, even in a society consistently rated one of the happiest in the world.

The Canadian Crew

Jorge Ignacio Castillo

The Danish keep on killing it at finding new angles in family dramas. In The Commune, we see a marriage fall apart as they try to assimilate the new limits of personal freedom during the swinging 70s.

A weightless and unworthy drama about Copenhagen communal living in the 1970s.

If The Commune was entirely Anna's story then perhaps the film would have fared better. It falls down almost entirely on the strength of her husband Erik's character.

It's so frustratingly close to brilliance but never coalesces into anything more than a strongly constructed familial drama, one that allows its supporting characters to fade in and out of the happenings with little rhyme or reason.
