TOMATOMETER
Director Jane Campion’s dark, brooding film is a study in contrasts between the beauty of the surroundings and the nasty, petty and often unspeakably harsh manner in which people will treat one another.
Chicago Sun-Times
Dec 24, 2021
Jane Campion makes a thrilling return with THE POWER OF THE DOG, a work as boldly idiosyncratic, unpredictable and alive with psychological complexity as anything in the revered director’s output.
Hollywood Reporter
Sep 2, 2021
It’s a movie in which Campion, who shot it in her native New Zealand, works with a full-scale, at times painterly precision and control. It’s also a socially conscious psychodrama that builds, over time, to a full boil.
Variety

The dialogue is sparse and the scenery obscenely beautiful, the wide-open vistas of her native New Zealand standing in for circa-1925 Montana.
Entertainment Weekly

Exquisitely filmed by cinematographer Ari Wegner, THE POWER OF THE DOG exerts a dreadful tidal pull of doom and endangerment.
Washington Post

4 stars out of 4 -- Here, coiled like a predator in wait, Cumberbatch is perhaps more fearsome than as his deep-voiced villains in THE HOBBIT and STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS. He moves through the movie like an unsheathed knife, cutting anyone unlucky enough to get close.

Where it all ends up feels at once cathartic and surprising, a denouement readable as lurid poetic justice and profound tragedy.
