Propulsive viewing that excites, enrages and intrigues, TAR is one of the best movies of all time - not least of which because of the towering, no holds barred performance from an absolutely magnetic Cate Blanchett. Read more

The overall story arc is realistically complemented with surgical dialogues and striking visual compositions in a timeless contemporary drama to be remembered for its immense qualities. One can finally rejoice with what have been missing from the movies these days: authenticity and intelligence. Read more

I found Tár to be a really interesting film and one whose aspects I am still pondering on days after watching it. But it’s also a long and slow film that I think many, particularly those watching at home with a clicker in their hand, will lose patience with. Read more

De decors en de cinematografie zijn schitterend. Mooi ook hoe de regisseur ervoor kiest om heel veel in het midden te laten. Wat er precies aan de hand is, wordt nooit verteld en dat intrigeert wel... Maar ondanks dit alles, blijft dit een verschrikkelijk saaie film, een lange zit. Read more
