Inspired by Aryan's amazing powers, Stern takes a leap of faith in a world where miracles are trafficked for small change...

[An] ambitious, enjoyable sci-fi experiment ...June 10, 2018
While certainly not for all tastes, Mundruczó's provocative and hugely ambitious head-trip proves both ravishing and rewarding to those who yield to its powers.May 23, 2017
Jupiter's Moon juggles so many ideas in the air, yet none of them ever land.January 14, 2018
Jupiter's Moon is an insubstantial and incomplete sci-fi yarn that strives for the dystopian heat of, say, Children Of Men -- but is too caught up in effects and a litany of inescapably mannered long takes that contribute nothing.May 19, 2017
Unfortunately, the movie's often-astonishing imagery ... has been applied to a mainstream thriller that might charitably be called goofy and more accurately described as powerfully stupid.January 08, 2018
Although Jupiter's Moon may not be deep enough for the Cannes' audience, genre hounds who do not mind subtitles will get a kick out of it.May 07, 2018
Its imagery is exhilarating, and the plot surges forward with a loopy energy, challenging us to hang on for the ride.January 08, 2018
Given wide latitude by the hero's gift, the story floats waywardly all over the place and, though the fancy camera moves are impressive, the journey is unsatisfying.May 19, 2017
This serious-minded, ambitious oddity shoots for the moon of a far-off planet, but it really only finds the grace it's looking for in its magnificent supple camerawork.January 08, 2018
Mundcuczo's implicit criticisms of Europe's attitude to migrants are undone somewhat by his film's messianic undercurrents, but for all that it's endlessly inventive, and ends in memorable and unexpected fashion.February 02, 2018
It'll be remembered not for its rather woolly handling of serious subject matter, but for a couple of excellent performances, and the stunning images and sequences conjured by Mundruczó and Rév. You should probably see it but don't expect to love it.May 23, 2017
Staggeringly well-shot but painfully strained.
