Neruda Reviews
Arizona Republic
Randy Cordova
A sumptuous puzzle of a movie that takes a turbulent period in the life of the Chilean poet and politician and turns it into a fable about fame and the power of words.
San Francisco Chronicle
Walter V. Addiego
This is a serious movie that often feels playful, one that has metafictional ambitions but wears them lightly. You can surrender to the enjoyment of the chase at the film's heart, while not losing sight of Larraín's serious aims.
Chicago Sun-Times
Miriam Di Nunzio
Calderon and Larrain have taken great dramatic license with Neruda's story, and the payoff is more than worth the risk.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
"Neruda" is a dream of Chile, of what it was and might have been, brought to the screen by a master dreamer.
Washington Post
Alan Zilberman
"Neruda" is a delightful mishmash of two disparate genres: the biopic and film noir.
Austin Chronicle
Kimberley Jones
This is a strange and beguiling film to the end.
Reel Talk Online
Candice Frederick
Breathtaking cinematography, but focusing the narrative from Garcia'a character's point of view would have been far more compelling.
Newsweek
Nicholas Barber
Sweeping, poignant, bizarre, funny and unique.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
For anyone who believes that poetry and democracy spring from the same source and provoke the same enemies, this movie provides both encouragement and warning.
New Yorker
Anthony Lane
It reminds us that movies, by their very nature, owe far more to poetry than they ever will to the novel.
Village Voice
Melissa Anderson
Larraín, born in Santiago in 1976, takes an oblique approach to his subject, one of his country's most exalted heroes - a strategy that renders the past always labile and dynamic, never static and turgid.
Entertainment Weekly
Joe McGovern
A virtual fireworks show about the power of poetry and fame on the world.
NPR
Ella Taylor
As in all his movies, Larrain is an expert juggler of tones: by turns antic and lyrical, Neruda is shot with a dark, nocturnal beauty and a mournful orchestral score.
Los Angeles Times
Justin Chang
Drolly and persuasively, the movie demonstrates that when it comes to evoking the artist and the nature of his art, historical fidelity and literal-minded dramatization go only so far.
RogerEbert.com
Glenn Kenny
Neruda is, like all the Larraín films I've seen, laudable in its ambitions and ultimately unsatisfying in its execution.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
A fascinating -- though overlong and sometimes slow -- trackdown fantasy with literary and political resonance.
TheWrap
Claudia Puig
The poetic narration, while lyrical, has a distancing effect, but that's not necessarily a negative in this context: What results is a highly artistic, atmospheric and deftly-written cat-and-mouse game.
AV Club
Mike D'Angelo
The more Neruda departs from historical fact, the more trenchant it becomes. Take note, other filmmakers.

Leonard Maltin
Neruda offers a captivating and unusual approach to a famous person's life. I know little about the poet but I fell under this movie's sway
Associated Press
Lindsey Bahr
Not many directors get a one-two punch like Jackie and Neruda in the same season, but it just makes it all the more clear that Larrain is one of the world's most exciting and imaginative filmmakers, whatever the subject may be.
