Critics Consensus: Southland Tales, while offering an intriguing vision of the future, remains frustratingly incoherent and unpolished.

Reviews

Vague Visages

Justin Micallef

To catch the eye of Southland Tales is to look back on our past and future simultaneously, on the limitations of our technology and the humanity that screeches through it.

A radical, swirling hallucination of ideas that all feel grabbed at random.

Sprawling, chaotic, stuffed to the gills with unexpected character actors and filled with apocalyptic mayhem, 2006's Southland Tales had a vision of where America was headed.

an insanely ambitious fever dream of a science fiction/political satire/anti-fantasy that roars at you with unapologetic gusto, inflaming the senses with its rich tapestry of post-millennial visuals and skewering of the Far Right and the Far Left

A cluttered and cacophonous screed with big ideas but shriveled results.
