Potentially insurmountable for viewers not attuned to the director's wavelength, The Image Book is typically confounding - and ultimately rewarding - late-period Godard.

A rumination on art, politics, history, and mankind's eternal folly disguised as a cinematic collage. It's plotless but it has shape; random but with purpose. Feb 28, 2019 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review…

"The Image Book" is an 85-minute cinematic brainstorm, a swirling, dazzling, maddening frenzy of disconnected sights and sounds that have been compiled and arranged according to a rhythmic and rhetorical logic that only its maker can fully divine. Feb 13, 2019 | Full Review…

"The Image Book" lives and breathes cinema; the cutting and sound games (up and down and all around) remain arresting and instinctive and inspired. Feb 7, 2019 | Rating: 3.5/4 | Full Review…

Concerned neither with telling stories nor even making rational sense, Godard aims straight for lyrical beauty, and he almost always hits his target. Feb 7, 2019 | Rating: 4/4 | Full Review…

Another free-associative cinematic meditation on language, the image, and extinction, by a master of the form. Jan 25, 2019 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

Easy to dislike at times but hard to dismiss, The Image Book is a difficult, contradictory, complex work. May 17, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Whoever labelled it an "avant-garde horror essay film" on Wikipedia probably got the closest to alluding to its, I guess, liminal qualities. It is everything and it is nothing. It occupies a genre all to itself. What that genre is, I just don't know. Apr 25, 2019 | Rating: B | Full Review…

One of Godard's most ambitious works, leaves aside the reflection on the cinematographic fact, never forgetting it but using it now as an element of his speech. [Full Review in Spanish] Mar 28, 2019 | Rating: 4.5/5 | Full Review…
