No Such Thing Reviews
Washington Post
Ann Hornaday
By the end of No Such Thing the audience, like Beatrice, has a watchful affection for the monster.
Newsday
John Anderson
What [Hartley] wants, and gets, is a fablish mood.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
Inexplicable, shapeless, dull.
San Francisco Chronicle
Edward Guthmann
Hartley never gets a firm grasp on this material.
New York Post
Megan Turner
Laggard drama wending its way to an uninspired philosophical epiphany.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
Everything's serious, poetic, earnest and -- sadly -- dull.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
Tender yet lacerating and darkly funny fable.
Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
Much as I value independence in art, it's possible for a filmmaker to crawl so far onto his own wavelength that he loses touch with everything else.
eFilmCritic.com
Oz
For a guy who has waited three years with breathless anticipation for a new Hal Hartley movie to pore over, No Such Thing is a big letdown.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
Plodding, peevish and gimmicky.
New York Times
Elvis Mitchell
The script kicks in, and Mr. Hartley's distended pace and foot-dragging rhythms follow.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
Instead of arresting a downward-spiralling career, Hartley's latest folly (one of the worst movies in Cannes 2001) shows what happens to an iconoclastic director when he neglects his intsinctive talent for small, quirly indies and goes uproariously big.
Observer
Rex Reed
I watched the brainless insanity of No Such Thing with mounting disbelief.
Salon.com
Stephanie Zacharek
No Such Thing may be far from perfect, but those small, odd Hartley touches help you warm to it.
Village Voice
Mark Holcomb
Too intensely focused on the travails of being Hal Hartley to function as pastiche, No Such Thing is Hartley's least accessible screed yet.
Hollywood Reporter
Kirk Honeycutt
Flaccid drama and exasperatingly slow journey.
Dread Central
No Such Thing is not a horror movie; it's an intelligent monster movie.
