[Atlantics] can occasionally feel stretched and thin in certain spots, like a cracking medium-length film padded out to feature runtime. Still, that's no matter, because the film's real coup is the victory it scores for greater perspective. December 20, 2019 | Full Review…

Yet the film is so convinced of its seriousness and artistic prowess (gorgeous, long and inherently disturbing shots of the ocean abound) that it becomes mildly, and pleasingly, intoxicating. December 3, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

The French-African director practically invents a new genre - Senegalese gothic - and does it with such insouciance that all you can do is rub your eyes. It's so beautiful. December 2, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

At its heart, Atlantics is a story about agency and the struggle to chart one's own path, free of societal constraints and expectations about what one should do. March 2, 2020 | Full Review…

Blending social realism with lyrical notes of horror, Diop runs through gender roles and how standing against the tide is the biggest quest of them all. February 29, 2020 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…
