The film has been overwhelmingly well-received in many countries including France and the UK. Peter Bradshaw of The Guardian writes, “The fluency and confidence of Inarritu's cinematic language are really spectacular. It may not convert, or convince, but it is certainly arresting: not magic realism exactly, but rather the director's very own brand of magic naturalism”.
