When it isn’t exciting the eye with its precise, painterly imagery, Lech Majewski’s ‘Angelus’ amuses in a dry, absurdist fashion… The film’s mode of setting up fantastically designed and lensed tableaux shots, has a nearly hallucinating impact on the eye… There’s a purified aura of beauty in ‘Angelus’ that creates a sometimes stunning sense of the imagination overcoming all obstacles.
VARIETY

An exceptionally original film, entirely in the spirit of the naïf paintings. One thinks of Fellini.
INTERNATIONAL HERALD TRIBUNE

Like Emir Kusturica’s ‘Underground’ and Volker Schlondorff’s ‘The Tin Drum’, ‘Angelus’ offers a sardonic, off-centered lens on decades of strife in Eastern Europe.
CHICAGO SUN TIMES

Wildy inventive! Fantastic imagery! A mix of Fellini’s absurdist satire and Tarkovsky’s mystical ritualism.
