Julia Reviews
Miami Herald
Rene Rodriguez
Charles Bukowski would have loved this foul-mouthed, fiery, reckless woman. Against all odds and common sense, you will, too.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
A nerve-wracking thriller with a twisty plot and startling realism.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
In a sense, it goes to all the places a sensitive character study might have gone, but more dramatically, convincingly and vividly.
New York Post
Kyle Smith
Picture Fargo played with no sense of comedy, and you'll get some idea of the absurdity of this drunken floozy, clicking and wobbling on high heels, often with bits of her anatomy hanging out, trying to pull off the perfect crime.
Los Angeles Times
Betsy Sharkey
We never get a good look at her demons, just the havoc they wreak.
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
Ms. Swinton doesn't have Ms. Rowlands' tenderness, but, damn, she has just about everything else you need or want.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
This is Zonca's second feature. His first, The Dreamlife of Angels, was extraordinary. Rent that one instead.
AV Club
Noel Murray
[Director] Zonca's merely feeding off Swinton's manic performance, which starts out tough to watch, then becomes gripping.
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
This overlong, lurchy homage to John Cassavetes' 1980 film Gloria is a mess, but a fascinating one, given Swinton's desperately avid performance in the title role.
UGO
Jordan Hoffman
I salute the film's bravery for rushing off at full force on its own stream-of-consciousness logic, but for me, I found the final stages perhaps a tad too far-fetched.
CinemaBlend
Perri Nemiroff
Swinton approaches Julia with an all-or-nothing attitude, creating an ungodly eccentric character and evoking an impressive array of audience emotions.
Slant Magazine
Nick Schager
Zonca's story is an unruly beast, lurching this way and that like a biker hopped up on mescaline and paint thinner, its unpredictable rowdiness in sync with its out-of-control protagonist.
Film Comment Magazine
Nathan Lee
Complications pile up, confrontations are manufactured, and numerous Mexican baddies materialize as the runtime needlessly heads past the two-hour mark.
The Simon
Tim Grierson
If you're feeling adventurous, seek it out. Swinton's masterful performance as the flailing, desperate L.A. alcoholic Julia will more than reward your time.
Village Voice
Scott Foundas
Jeered upon its premiere at the 2008 Berlin Film Festival and only now receiving a token U.S. release, Julia demands to be reassessed and reckoned with.
Cinema Sight
Wesley Lovell
Tilda Swinton's strong central performance saves an otherwise routine drug drama.
Variety
Eddie Cockrell
A startling misfire.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
It's simply impossible to imagine Eric Zonca's Julia, a noirish thriller and sharp character study inspired by Cassavetes' Gloria, without Tilda Swinton, who dominates the film from start to finish.
EDGE Boston
Phil Hall
One should hope Tilda Swinton has a good dental plan - it will come in handy when the time comes to pry out the scenery she aggressively chomps.
