Critics Consensus: Transit lives up to its title with a challenging drama that captures characters - and puts the audience - in a state of flux and exerts an unsettling pull.

The dreamlike quality to the narrative just adds to the general state of confusion. It's a radical concept and it mostly works.
...the characters' very realistic reactions to the increasingly encroaching violence means their stories hit home.
Anyone who appreciates cinema's underrated capacity to confound-to really sabotage our understanding of what's transpiring -will get a rush from the way Petzold constantly shifts the ground underneath our feet.
Petzold commits to the premise's melodrama without relying upon high-key emotion.
With Transit, director Christian Petzold creates a Second World War adventure that is not a sentimental costume drama and a contemporary political parable that is not a didactic sermon -- and produces a highly entertaining film into the bargain.
More evidence of [Petzold's] confidence and skill as a director.
Don't expect many thrills... the director is more interested in offering a wide tonal palette of emotional reflections than really shocking us directly through the images.
Offering a unique perspective on the refugee experience, Petzold effectively puts us in the shoes of individuals who are often invisible in plain sight to most of society.
The complex, twisty love story also grows like a weed, until it ends on a wistful note. Rogowski is no Bogart, and yet Georg has the weariness, romance, and desperation of a lovable noir hero.
Formally ingenious.
Requires the strictest attention and imagination.
It's raw human drama brimming with empathy and a sadly all too plausible concept.
