Reviews for The Aerial
Both less inventive and less substantial than it seems to think it is, this would-be epic suffers from the comparisons it prompts as it references a series of silent classics.

This left-field, futuristic film is a tad too indulgent to be a true homage to the silent movie.
The Tim Burtonish retro design and the blatant references to silent masterworks don't amount to a style; and even if they did, wouldn't make up for the kitsch story.
Reflexive, allegorical and poetic, La Antena (The Aerial) is a dizzyingly dense piece of cinema, thriving on paradox, and always matching its medium to its message.
A stylishly inventive play on silent-era movies that presses political buttons.
The characterisation is perhaps necessarily formulaic, but that doesn’t make these paper-thin figures any more likeable, and despite its undoubted beauty the film eventually becomes something of a chore.
This wonderfully original little film is filled with tacit menace and ominous symbolism; it’s a work of curious and unsettling beauty.
