Contorted, baffling, polarizing and idiosyncratic documentary.

Ozus' World Movie Reviews
By the time it ends, it has ruminated on the rise of the image, the fall of the word and the pulverization of every form of information into a nonstop stream of 'content'...

Rating: 3.5/5 --
A rumination on art, politics, history, and mankind's eternal folly disguised as a cinematic collage. It's plotless but it has shape; random but with purpose.

Boston Globe
...a work, both surprising and confounding, that indicates the lyrical and poetic potential of montage-based cinema.

Hyperallergic
Godard’s raspy, immediately identifiable voice booms from all corners of the theater....His intonation evokes a multitude of passion, feeling, and anguish that exceeds mere thought.
A.V. Club
Rating: 4/4 --
The film has the intimacy of a personal postcard sharing memories of deceased friends, favourite films and political touchstones.

Globe and Mail
THE IMAGE BOOK is a Godardian bulletin, and the world that he’s looking at through his color-saturated semiotic channel-surfing kaleidoscope is one that has fallen into horror and is spinning out of control. Or maybe it’s fallen under too much control.
Variety
Product Description:
French-Swiss writer-director Jean-Luc Godard's film assumes the form of an avant-garde video essay. A collage of cinematic clips, music, paintings, and original footage accompany Godard's narration, which presents a foreboding message about the filmmaker and the viewer's responsibility to take decisive action to prevent atrocious crimes against humanity from being perpetuated by their government.
