Archipelago Reviews

In scene after scene, meaning sneaks in and sometimes roars.

| Jun 26, 2014

This is a beautifully distilled and literally still work that lingers in the mind long after its conclusion.

| Jun 23, 2014

As much as a downbeat comedy of bourgeois mores, Archipelago is a sort of claustrophobic horror story, set in a place of no easy escape.

| Jun 18, 2012

Gloomy and unrewarding.

| Mar 8, 2011

Archipelago is a subtle film of sensed absences.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 4, 2011

Hogg, though a fine film-maker, doesn't always prevent us feeling that these people are not worth worrying about.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 4, 2011

Hogg is inviting us to dismiss these people as fundamentally different to ourselves. But sat in a dark auditorium, we are merely laughing at each other.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Mar 3, 2011

It's a difficult watch and a difficult sell, but this is quietly outstanding.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Mar 3, 2011

No other British director is making films quite like this.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 3, 2011

Archipelago is a sad, funny, wise film.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 2, 2011

'Archipelago' confirms Hogg as a daring and mischievous artist, and a major British talent whose next move will be intriguing.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 2, 2011

A well-crafted affair elevated by terrific moments.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 28, 2011
