This charming lo-fi indie from actor-director Kentucker Audley and director Albert Birney is attuned to its own eccentric wavelength, equal parts absurd and poignant. Oct 10, 2017 | Full Review…

Bernardi is an actor of genius; his Janus-faced pantomime, as Sylvio struggles voicelessly for a place among human chatterboxes, channels the infinite grace of the great silent-film comedians. Oct 9, 2017 | Full Review…

Sylvio endures a classic journey toward making peace with his existence, and that's enough to make it worthwhile. Mar 14, 2017 | Rating: B | Full Review…

One of Sylvio's greatest strengths is the ever-present, though never fully verified sense that Birney and Audley are having a long laugh at their audience's expense. Mar 11, 2017 | Full Review…

A tense amalgamation of lowbrow sensibilities and highbrow execution, which the anthropomorphic gorilla then beats into submission. Nov 22, 2017 | Rating: B | Full Review…

Sylvio's banal depictions of everyday loneliness through the diurnal tedium of an anthropomorphic animal brings to mind BoJack Horseman, but without the caustic navel-gazing and self-destruction or the mordant pop-culture musings. Oct 10, 2017 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

Sylvio has stray moments of beauty that border on the sublime. There's a yearning to the hairy guy's amazingly uneventful puppet shows, a dream of sophistication that transcends his animal brutishness. May 5, 2017 | Full Review…

No matter what, Sylvio gave me belly laughs and evocative feels. Thus far, it is my favorite film of the year. A most disturbing year, but still. Mar 17, 2017 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review…
