“The hand that feeds – and also brutalizes – is righteously bitten in ‘White God,’ a Hungarian revenge fantasy that’s like nothing you’ve seen on screen before.” – Manohla Dargis, New York Times
“The whole production speaks well for the power of film; it’s a serious stunner.” – Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal
“What it all means is open to interpretation. Read it as a parable or as a horror movie. Read it as the story of love between a girl and her dog. Read it however you want. No matter what your take, you won’t be disappointed.” -Billy Goodykoontz, Arizona Republic
“It all pays off with an astounding, extended climax that is as rousing and exciting as it is frightening – one of the most surreal experiences I’ve ever had watching a movie.” – Rene Rodriguez, Miami Herald
