Little Joe

...er frydefuld langsommelig anti-action og opererer taktfast i det særlige tempo, scoret af Teiji Ito dikterer.

Like a lot of modern horror, what makes Little Joe threatening is how entirely feasible it could be...

Austrian director and co-writer Jessica Hausner has taken an austere approach to her sci-fi horror film, both visually and tonally, which is an intriguing choice in contrast with its wild central idea.

...är både intressant och tankeväckande.

Hausner leker med sin berömda landsman Michael Hanekes skräckvisioner av en ny, sociopatisk generation. Det är obehagligt och spännande.

...gennemført og æggende. Scenerne kæler for detaljen og farverne, der er domineret af pastel, rød og mintgrøn. Det skaber et nærmest eventyrligt univers, selv om miljøet er klinisk og realistisk.

...if the film's goal is to disturb viewers by rubbing together notions of beauty and horror, then it succeeds.

...Hausner’s needle-sharp chiller is as rigidly ordered and minutely controlled as the labs in which Little Joe is grown.
